So I've got a program that saves a graphic image, and I copied chunks of it from http://wiki.freepascal.org/fcl-image because I'm , whenever I draw text, it comes out in black, and I wish to be able to change the colour. I've hunted online and through the source code, and nothing seems to work. Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

   Image := TFPMemoryImage.Create (1025,513);
   Image.UsePalette := FALSE;
   Canvas := TFPImageCanvas.Create (Image);
   FontMgr.SearchPath:='/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-dejavu/';
   AFont := TFreeTypeFont.Create;
     Canvas.brush.FPCOlor := colWhite;
     Canvas.pen.FPColor := colWhite;
     Canvas.Font := aFont;
     Canvas.Font.Name := 'DejaVuSerif';
     Canvas.Font.Size := 6 + ZoomFactor;

By trying stuff at random, I managed to figure it out...I changed aFont.FPColor.
