Well of course you need something more... chances are low that it's the
same format as the GDK functions expect, barring an amazing coincidence of

Read the FreeType docs/source or pester the FreeType people, and find out
how to get the bitmap data in a format you can use. Once you know what the
format is, we can tell you how to use it with GTK+.
