Question #19

Closed MarcFinns closed 7 years ago

MarcFinns commented 7 years ago

Hi Bodmer, back again and just saw the ESP32 compatibility - great!! A quick question. I am looking for fonts on various sizes. I like the ones you embedded in your porting of the weather station but only two sizes are available. Is your lib compatible with Paul Stoffregen collection here on Github, and derived? (e.g. https://github.com/sumotoy/commonFonts). thanks once more. m

Bodmer commented 7 years ago

No the library is not compatible with Paul's fonts.

You can generate fonts in the correct format using the online utility here: http://oleddisplay.squix.ch/#/home

and then use them as custom fonts.

Yes, use squix converter, but large font this converter not generate, or use in https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit-GFX-Library ->fontconvert utility (first make executable fontconvert). This utility convert any windows ttf font.

Bodmer commented 7 years ago

True, the Squix utility only generates fonts up to size 100 (height in pixels)..

Sorry to comment on a closed issue, but http://oleddisplay.squix.ch/#/home is down. I tried to compile https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit-GFX-Library ->fontconvert, but doesn't get it to work.

Is anybody aware of another online or Windows tool to create fonts for this lib?

Bodmer commented 6 years ago

The font generator website does go down sometimes. Try leaving a message on Dani's suport forum.

pipi61 commented 6 years ago

try adafruit fontconvert, upload binary to my page: http://puzsar.hu/adafruitfontconvert.rar
