file format for font

Post by danmcb »

Hi - can you tell me what the file format of the default font (SIEMENS.C16) is? I want to use the code at lower res than 720dpi (bit pointless when my source image is 72dpi) - which I can do in the code but then i think I need to supply a font at that dpi? if so what format does it need to be in?

thanks again!

The font is a bitmap font with 16 bytes per character - ie 16 print rows per character.

The code to convert the printed character is in the:

Code: Select all

int printcharx(unsigned char chr)
