Adafruit-GFX-Library/fontconvert/fontconvert.c

/*
TrueType to Adafruit_GFX font converter.  Derived from Peter Jakobs'
Adafruit_ftGFX fork & makefont tool, and Paul Kourany's Adafruit_mfGFX.

NOT AN ARDUINO SKETCH.  This is a command-line tool for preprocessing
fonts to be used with the Adafruit_GFX Arduino library.

For UNIX-like systems.  Outputs to stdout; redirect to header file, e.g.:
  ./fontconvert ~/Library/Fonts/FreeSans.ttf 18 > FreeSans18pt7b.h

REQUIRES FREETYPE LIBRARY.  www.freetype.org

Currently this only extracts the printable 7-bit ASCII chars of a font.
Will eventually extend with some int'l chars a la ftGFX, not there yet.
Keep 7-bit fonts around as an option in that case, more compact.

See notes at end for glyph nomenclature & other tidbits.

/* -------------------------------------------------------------------------

Character metrics are slightly different from classic GFX & ftGFX.
In classic GFX: cursor position is the upper-left pixel of each 5x7
character; lower extent of most glyphs (except those w/descenders)
is +6 pixels in Y direction.
W/new GFX fonts: cursor position is on baseline, where baseline is
'inclusive' (containing the bottom-most row of pixels in most symbols,
except those with descenders; ftGFX is one pixel lower).

Cursor Y will be moved automatically when switching between classic
and new fonts.  If you switch fonts, any print() calls will continue
along the same baseline.

                    ...........#####.. -- yOffset
                    ..........######..
                    ..........######..
                    .........#######..
                    ........#########.
   * = Cursor pos.  ........#########.
                    .......##########.
                    ......#####..####.

                    || xOffset

glyph->xOffset and yOffset are pixel offsets, in GFX coordinate space
(+Y is down), from the cursor position to the top-left pixel of the
glyph bitmap.  i.e. yOffset is typically negative, xOffset is typically
zero but a few glyphs will have other values (even negative xOffsets
sometimes, totally normal).  glyph->xAdvance is the distance to move
the cursor on the X axis after drawing the corresponding symbol.

There's also some changes with regard to 'background' color and new GFX
fonts (classic fonts unchanged).  See Adafruit_GFX.cpp for explanation.
