Alexei Podtelezhnikov, thank you!

I see FT_Outline_Render. I see the flag FT_RASTER_FLAG_DIRECT.

I will to pass the bitmap ( FT_Bitmap ) via `params.target` (
FT_Raster_Params ). It good.
How to set render offset ( left, top ) ?

I think,
I can use `FT_Bitmap.buffer` for set start position in buffer, and 
I can set `FT_Bitmap.pitch` to ny_buffer.width.

It is correct way for render into the preallocated bitmap ?
