ofxFontStash: Dynamic font glyph cache for OpenGL
Quick and simple Addon wrapping Font-Stash.
"Font Stash enables easy string rendering in OpenGL applications. It supports truetype fonts and UTF-8 encoded localized strings. All glyphs are cached in OpenGL texture atlases. Font rasterization is done using Sean Barrett’s stb_truetype.h."
I made tiny modifications to FontStash to render text flipped vertically, to play nicer in the OpenFrameworks universe.
ofxFontStash is quite fast at drawing text.
Font Stash was originally created and published by Mikko Mononen.
