[HarfBuzz] Getting character bitmap

[Behdad Esfahbod]

Hi Sagar,

HarfBuzz does not have a rasterizer so you can't get that from HarfBuzz.
You have two options:

  1. Use FreeType library,

  2. If you have a graphics library with a rasterizer capable of handling
the moveTo/lineTo/curveTo model, you can use the hb-draw API to draw to it.

Hope that helps,
