I noticed this also and wrote some code to compress fonts in memory with RLE. It makes fonts -way- smaller in memory, and will draw the font 20% faster with no background and 2.5 times as slow with a filled background. The font cannot be antialiased, but useage is real easy and works right in with the Allegro fonts. You can find the source in the projects section of my homepage: http://huizen.dds.nl/~deleveld/ It should make easily and there are even some demo programs... Have fun, Doug Eleveld
