XBMC fonts

okets · 2004-03-11, 16:09

hi,
i have noticed that you have changed the fonts in the skin folder.
till recently the fonts were in xpr format and now there are some unpacked fonts.
i also noticed that you support charsets in various languages,
can anyone tell me what fonts files are in use and where (in xbmc), so i can create fonts that support more than the few languages it already supports. (until recently i had 3 xpr fonts (13,14,64), but now it seems that i need to make some new fonts).

i can also make a unicode font if you would like and this way it will support all languages, or better yet, why not force to attach fonts to each language folder instead of just strings.xml file?

can you please post instructions that include what ttf font to use in order to create each of the new fonts, and a charset unicode text file that includes the currently supported characters (you know, in fontmaker there is this radio button "from range-to range/ from text file"... so i need that text file.

that way programmers can add more languages to the xbmc
(if you think unicode fonts are too large)

thanks,
okets.
