Font Industry 0.0.9 (Default branch)
Image Font Industry (字体工业) makes big charset font creation easier. The program converts a scanned in grid sheet, containing a lot of glyphs, into a bitmap font. The glyphs will be automatically indexed by Unicode or with a user-selected charset order. The bitmap font can then be converted to an outline font like TTF or OpenType font. License: GNU General Public License v3 Changes:
The zoom image function was added. The family name was updated to the sfd font. When setting a glyph from text, the selected text is tried first. The "Set End" button was moved to the toolbar. Miscellaneous bugs were fixed. Image

GLXUSEXFONT()															     GLXUSEXFONT()

NAME

       glXUseXFont - create bitmap display lists from an X font

C SPECIFICATION

       void glXUseXFont( Font font,
			 int first,
			 int count,
			 int listBase )

       delim $$

PARAMETERS

       font	 Specifies the font from which character glyphs are to be taken.

       first	 Specifies the index of the first glyph to be taken.

       count	 Specifies the number of glyphs to be taken.

       listBase  Specifies the index of the first display list to be generated.

DESCRIPTION

       glXUseXFont generates count display lists, named listBase through listBase+count-1, each containing a single glBitmap command.  The parame-
       ters of the glBitmap command of display list listBase+i are derived from glyph first+i.	Bitmap parameters xorig, yorig, width, and  height
       are  computed  from  font  metrics  as  descent-1, -lbearing, rbearing-lbearing, and ascent+descent, respectively.  xmove is taken from the
       glyph's width metric, and ymove is set to zero.	Finally, the glyph's image is converted to the appropriate format for glBitmap.

       Using glXUseXFont may be more efficient than accessing the X font and generating the display lists explicitly,  both  because  the  display
       lists  are  created on the server without requiring a round trip of the glyph data, and because the server may choose to delay the creation
       of each bitmap until it is accessed.

       Empty display lists are created for all glyphs that are requested and are not defined in font.  glXUseXFont is ignored if there is no  cur-
       rent GLX context.

ERRORS

       BadFont is generated if font is not a valid font.

       GLXBadContextState is generated if the current GLX context is in display-list construction mode.

       GLXBadCurrentWindow  is generated if the drawable associated with the current context of the calling thread is a window, and that window is
       no longer valid.
