I haved used SWIG to wrap the FreeType library, a TrueType font
rendering engine.  It can be used to render text onto a 2-color bitmap
or anti-aliased text onto a 256-grayscale pixmap.  These readily
convert to PIL Images.

Information on FreeType is on their site http://www.freetype.org
Documentation on PyFT is available on
