What a shame. There should be a package for ft2, it's strange it won't go on. This might help you: here's part of an old program of mine (before I discovered how to render text on the client side): http://cima.ng-london.org.uk/~john/imageinfo.c search for imageinfo_paint_text() ... it paints a text string with pango over X to an off-screen pixmap, then fetches that pixmap from the server to the clent and unpacks it into an array of 8-bit values.
