This is not supported by default in CEGUI so you either have to fake it, use a pregenerated bitmapped font, or...?

I wonder how difficult it would be for CEGUI to expose the underlying Freetype glyphs (textures?) via the Font? class and allow post-processing effects using a texture/pixel shader? I've never tried anything like this so I don't know if this is feasible or if I am way off base? But dynamic font-effects intrigues me.

I don't have specifics to give at the moment - because I haven't really though about it too deeply - but in the future we want to give people access to a lot more stuff and allow more opportunities for advanced rendering in the future. I think access to resources at a more fine-grained level is one way this could happen.
