Non-antialiasing with FreeType 2 corrupts images.
Not using antialiasing with TrueType fonts and FreeType 2 causes corruption of
GD image output. Most likely a GD/FreeType problem, but I told John that I
would patch both versions of the GD/FreeType code to fix font rendering with
non-antialiased fonts. With FreeType 1 there is an error in his code that
always requests grayscale pixmaps even with no antialiasing. It should request
a bitmap instead. Fix is to add a key to his caching code and this was already
written for versions 3.4 and earlier. I suspect the same problem exists with
FreeType 2 since it uses the same caching code, however since not setting the
antialias flag corrupts the image I can't tell. Will have to fix that first.
Workaround is to use antialiasing with TrueType fonts.
