Hi, I’m trying to use bitmaps of the symbols 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 K M (the bit maps are black… in the middle is the char with in white)
I only need them for 1 size (the same as in the files) all I need is that I can change the color to yellow, white, or green.
So is there an easy way to convert them to a .ttf file?
I’m trying to do this for PHP by the way… not that I know it matters as long as it is a .ttf file… unless anyone knows good ways of just using bitmaps characters in place of truetype.
Either way any help would be greatly appreciated!
I have attached a file with all the characters (even though I only need 12 of them as shown above)
I’m assuming you are using the GD Library from PHP? You could convert the bitmaps to png’s with transparency (where the character is transparent) and draw these on a single colored image. That way the transparent pixels will show the single colored image thus creating a colored font.
The images you sent are in bmp format which can be directly imported into Font Creator to form a font. See attached.
Small Chars.ttf
They were tiny but Glyph Transformer increased their size to be readable. Since it is a font you can change the character size in the application as needed. This is not a finished font as you need to move glyphs around (after lower case z) to match the Post Script names and give it a name, etc.
