FONT QUESTION

(1/2) > >>

teamlinx:
I had a question about the .fnt format.

I have used various applications to import fonts and then export them as a .fnt file.
Rockbox will recognize them but the font is the normal default font rather than century gothic or something.

I was curious why this was happening.

i have an ipod photo 40 gig. everything else works great.

bluebrother:
Rockbox uses its own font format. It's generated out of bdf files. The tools used can be found in the svn tree.

Besides, there is no reason to scream the subject.

teamlinx:
sorry didn't realize caps was on.

so you're saying i need to use a .bdf file as a font instead of a .fnt file?
is there somewhere i can look this up at?

GodEater:
You could start here :

teamlinx:
I have used these and successfully created a .fnt file.
when I open the .fnt file through the computer i can see the font.

when i load it and try to view it in rockbox its a basic default font.

what am i missing?
