Hi All
I am using the Adafruit GFX Pixel font customiser here https://tchapi.github.io/Adafruit-GFX-Font-Customiser/ to try and lightly modify a font within the Adafruit library.
The tool seems simple, however when I use it I am having issues that mean that I cannot get an output that works
It states to drag a font into the 'extract font' area of the screen, but when I do this, all that happens is that a new tab opens with the .h code. The only way I can 'extract' the file is to then copy the code from the new tab into the 'extract' area, or do the same from a notepad++ file
I can modify the glyphs with no problem, the editor part is very easy. The real trouble then comes when I want to actually produce a font from that modified set. If you click on 'process and create file' it simply shows a different set of code in the output window, but is has the same headers as the original file. There appears to be no 'output to file option', or renaming option. If I copy the code into notepad++ and save it with the new filename, it is not recognised by the sketch due to the fact that it still has all the header references to the old font
I believe that this program is not actually able to create the new headers and whatever, just modify the actual glyphs to import into some other program.
So I would like to know if I am using it incorrectly, and whether there are any other steps that I need to process in order to create the custom font
Cheers
