# Hershey font converter
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This is the tool that was used to create the fonts.hpp file that is included
|
||
|
|
in the Badger2040 library. It is included in case you want to convert other
|
||
|
|
Hershey fonts - we only include a subset to keep the flash image to a
|
||
|
|
reasonable size.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
It takes in `.jhf` files (which can be found in the `fonts` directory) and
|
||
|
|
converts them into C++ arrays and structures that can be embedded directly
|
||
|
|
into your code.

Credit to Paul Bourke for another fantastic file format guide which provided a
|
||
|
|
lot of the necessary detail to make this work - read more about how the
|
||
|
|
Hershey fonts work at http://paulbourke.net/dataformats/hershey/. While you're
|
||
|
|
there make sure to check out some of his other file format guides, they are
|
||
|
|
a wealth of useful information.
