Hi, 

I need to draw textured font... so i use "glfont" from the following web site:
http://students.cs.byu.edu/~bfish/glfontdl.php

I tried to use the simple program to draw a string.. But can't...
I can draw glRect on the program....

Could anyone help me and tell me how ?? anything wrong???
I am eager to know and wish can do the task.... Please tell me???

thanks
