Oct 14, 2017 BitFontCreator is a professional bitmap font creator tool for your embedded project, which helps you create monochrome (1-bpp) bitmap fonts and antialiased (2-bpp and 4-bpp) bitmap fonts for graphical LCD / LED. It just import the font installed on your Windows PC and create a C file representing that font. There are three types of font assets available to games made with Cocos Creator: system fonts, dynamic fonts, and bitmap fonts. The system font renders text by calling the system font that comes with the game running platform, and does not require the user to add any related assets to the project. To use system fonts, use the Use System Font property in the Label documentation.
Integrated workflow
Use BitFonter with FontLab VI, TransType, FontLab Pad
BitFonter isn’t limited to black-and-white! With the Photofont intermediate format and the new Color OpenType font format extensions, you can create full-color fonts with transparency, and use them on the web and in print! Imagine computer letters with true calligraphic expression, visible brush strokes and paper structure — a new dimension in the field of typography.
To create Color OpenType fonts, export the font as Photofont PHF, then open the PHF file in TransType or FontLab VI, and export a Color OpenType font in the SVG, sbix or CBDT flavor. Finally, use the Color OpenType font in Adobe CC apps, web browsers or in our free FontLab Pad app!
You can also export a color bitmap font into a monochrome Outline Pixelfont: BitFonter will halftone your pixels using vector squares, circles, lines or luminance-based shapes, and export outline-based VFB font that you can open in FontLab VI, Fontographer or TypeTool to produce a final monochrome OpenType font that approximates your bitmap design with scalable outlines. To achieve this, turn on Tools > Options > Outline Font Editor, turn on Export outline font into VFB file, and choose Font > Export > Outline Font or Outline Pixelfont.
