Overview
glutBitmapWidth returns the width in pixels of a bitmap character in a supported bitmap font. While the width of characters in a font may vary (though fixed width fonts do not vary), the maximum height characteristics of a particular font are fixed.
glutBitmapLength returns the length in pixels of a string (8-bit characters). This length is equivalent to summing all the widths returned by glutBitmapWidth for each character in the string.
