GLCD Font Creator v1.2.0.0 output format help

#1 Post by seulater » 04 Jun 2012 14:57

I am trying to figure out the output format. Is this explained somewhere.

The following is for Fixedsys8x14 font.
For instance, For the empty block (the first char) is given as this:
0x05, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, // Code for char

Clearly, this data contains more than just the symbol data, as you can see by the 0x05.

For instance, the block symbol is given as this:
0x07, 0x00, 0x00, 0xFC, 0x07, 0xFC, 0x07, 0xFC, 0x07, 0xFC, 0x07, 0xFC, 0x07, 0xFC, 0x07, 0x00, 0x00 // Code for char 

I could use help in understanding how the output is formatted.

Thank you
