How to change the font of bootloader?

[yzflcyq]

I'm modifying the bootloader for VX747.Cause I'm a Chinese so I'd to use Chinese in my own bootloader.
Now I have bdf file,but how to change the font?
Waiting for answers,THANKS.

Why would you want to do that ?

Afaik the bootloader has a few strings and its only purpose is to load the main build from disk and launch it.

Translations are loaded from disk by the normal build, so you would also have to change the bootloader strings from english to Chinese.

Here comes a problem:
I did changed the font,but it can't display at the center of the screen(like the show_splash funtion).How to fix it?
Thanks.

The bootloader has extremely limited output support. There is no splash equivalent.

So?I think it can be done by editing the definition of SYSFONT_WIDTH and SYSFONT_HEIGHT.If it's doable,please tell me where to edit it.
Anyway thanks.
