BMFontGen Description
The BMFontGen application was developed to be a command line utility that can convert a TrueType or OpenType font into a bitmap font. A bitmap font consists of one or more images plus an XML descriptor file which identifies the location of each glyph in the bitmap images along with additional font metric data. These bitmap fonts can be useful in game development where one cannot assume that the game platform provides a font renderer. While BMFontGen strives to provide full Unicode character support, it is worth noting the following limitations: - While special glyphs like ligatures, non-spacing marks and contextual forms will be extracted as part of the font, currently no special support is provided for these characters. - Surrogate characters are not supported. Other limitations include: - No codepages other than Unicode are supported - Glyphs are not packed as tightly as possible in the image bitmap - Italic fonts may have the top or bottom tails clipped Main features: Supports Unicode Supports extracting more than 256 characters Allows the set of included characters to be specified as ranges or from a file Permits individual glyphs to be replaced with custom images
