Font Tools

Create pixel fonts. You might do this:

$ bazel run :font --
    -font <path-to-font>
    -size=16
    -out-grid=out.png
    -out-texture=tex.png
    -texture-size=64:64
    -charset=20,30-39,41-5a,61-7a
    -remove-notdef

This does the following:

• Renders the font at 16 pixels high

• Removes all characters except space and alphanumerics, and removes the ".notdef" glyph

• Puts all glyphs in an easy-to-read file, out.png

• Packs glyphs tightly into tex.png, which consists of one or more 64x64 sections
