    Default Create a bitmap of formatted text

    hi,
    I have a proprietary display, which I draw on by manipulating GPIOs.
    The display is monochrome.
    I need to create monochrome images of formatted text (multi-language, TTF fonts, etc.)
    How can that be done?
    I'm thinking of QImage and QPainter - am I in the right direction?

    Yes, either with a grayscale image format or, if it only can do two colors, with a QBitmap.

    Cheers,
