font_img.pl

The font_img.pl script allows to add extra fonts into the Arduino UTFT Library by Henning Karlsen. The script generates an image for selected font and size; the image is then used as an input for Font Maker UTFT Tool.

_ Example:_ An image for the FreeMono font of size 24 can be generated using the command

./font_img.pl -fontname FreeMono -fontsize 24 --out

The generated image is stored into FreeMono_24.png file in the working directory and looks as follows FreeMono_24.png The C file that was created from this image with the Font Maker UTFT Tool is as follows FreeMono_24.c

Limitations: The script was developed and tested in Linux environment only.
