        Trying to use FT as a vector rasterizer is probably not the best 
thing, especially since it is limited in that regard (no line caps or 
joins, no dashes, etc).   May I suggest that you consider something like 
ImageMagick (http://www.imagemagick.org) which is open source, available 
for numerous OS platforms and even uses FT2 for type rendering!
