Could you add a link to the FreeImage libraries you intend to use? – user308879 Oct 20 '17 at 14:07

Perhaps the similarly named [FreeType](https://www.freetype.org/) would be useful to you? – Mark Ransom Oct 20 '17 at 15:32

Rendering text to image is not doable with FreeImage, as is noted on their own forum, albeit quite a long ago, but from their docs this does not seem to have changed:
https://sourceforge.net/p/freeimage/discussion/36110/thread/6c519d97/
If rendering text to image is what you need, there are other open source alternatives that do this, including ImageMagick, as noted in the forum post.
