Help with making fonts

Chuck McKnight:
I'm sorry if this has been discussed before or is posted elsewhere, but I have not been able to find anything.

How do I make fnt fonts? I understand how to convert fonts from ttf to fnt, but is there a way to simply draw the characters as they will appear? This would make sense to me as the fonts seem to be pixel based rather than scalable. Thanks!

Read these wiki pages:

http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/CreateFonts
http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/FontFormat
http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/RockboxFontConvertor (most important, in your case)

zajacattack:
This isn't a rockbox question. I suggest you use Google to find something.

crzyboyster:
Sorry, I misread your question Chuck McKnight. For making a font, Google is your source and simply be creative after that. Then, just convert it!

Llorean:
Actually it is a Rockbox question, since the .fnt format we use is custom to us.
