Problems with using fonts with polish symbols. #140

Closed jacekpoz closed 3 years ago

jacekpoz commented 3 years ago

I have a problem with using fonts that aren't in the project. I want to get polish symbols, I tried unifont for u8g2, I also converted the polish .ttf fonts on this website. Then I tried fontconvert from Adafruit GFX and it doesn't work either. The project compiled, but the display doesn't show any text. How would I fix that?

The fonts need to be in GFX format I suggest you go back to a working font and then try one of the many font editors that can produce GFX fonts but only try one character at a time to begin with. I have that with the ° symbol and it works you will need to use or amend existing character positions below 127 eg change u to ū or whatever
