Hey i have a question. To print some text in the screen in Allegro do you have to use an image to read from the characters like you have in SDL and OPENGL, or is there an easier builtin way to do that? thank you in advance

i read some thing from the documentation vut i didn't understand :\. I saw a FONT type but that's all. I still don't find anything. Do you have to use images or is there a better way?

According to the pages I linked to, Allegro has a built in font called "font" which you can use if you don't want to create your own. Read "GRAPHICS TEXT DISPLAY" in the first page I linked to.
