You will be punished! Be prepared!

Hi all,
This tool allows you to create BMP texture in power of two size from 256x256 to 4096x4096 for use with TBGL_LoadBMPFont.
Sizes 256x256 and 512x512 are safe for any hardware today, for the bigger ones better to check first for supported texture size.
Hope you will like it,
Petr
Updates
1.1 - saves to TGA with alpha, color fades for font
1.3 - allows elemental shading and outlining
1.4 - application has fixed size window, ability to export 256x256, 512x512, 1024x1024, 2048x2048 and also 4096x4096 bitmaps
1.5 - user can specify shadow offset
1.6 - added support for symbol fonts (thanks Rene for noticing problem)

Hi Abraxas,
nice one, I didn't knew about this.
I used other good one, but it was not localised to english so it could be bothering for someone.
I think it could be good to create "TBGL certified" tools with no need to be scared of license and other stuff too, so will try to improve TBGL Font Creator in future.
Thanks,
Petr

Hmm,
so you must be sad TBGL loads just not alphed BMPs for fonts...
I have modified TBGL_LoadBMPFont code to take both BMP and TGA now, it will be present in next TBGL ( 0.2.1 ) release.

Excellent Programme Petr.
Some Months ago someone on the Basic4GL Forum wrote a Font Conversion Programme which would convert TTF Fonts to a 256x256 PNG Charset. You can read about it here.
But it was written in GFA Basic and didn't work on some peoples Computers. :P
Is there any chance that you could add the option to save the Texture in the PNG Format?

Thanks a lot for the replies!
Matthew, PNG fileformat seems to be my destiny, like Prince of Persia was chased by Dahaka beast, I wake up at night crying "PNG!"
B4GL proggie looks very cool!
Writing of the PNG file should be easier than reading, I will see what I can do.
TGA with alpha should be easy, and will be probably done first.
I have also planed few post process features for the bitmap, will see how fast it will go.
Thanks,
Petr
