Search the forum for "font". This question has been asked many times before.

The code seem to draw a picture with character such as "A" , "B" , that's not a font .
Graphic displays are great for projects that require both text and pictures to be displayed, but the text can be difficult to read on displays that have a small pixel size. An easy solution is to utilize the custom character generator that is built into the Toshiba tc6963 controller to generate a font that is bolder than the characters generated by the internal CGROM.

What happen if We use sub procedure t6963c_dot to draw character with big font ? It's use so much MPU memory and make the MPU slowly . It's a bad idea to write chacracter by use t6963_dot

1) you need to need to learn how to use this forum. It's possible to delete old comments using this bbs software.

2) What you want to do is impossible with the t6963c. It only supports one size of font (in two widths) as character. Large fonts have to be implemented as graphics. This is a limitation of the hardware. You should search the internet and educate yourself on the t6963c hardware before asking questions here. There are several excellent t6963c tutorials on the internet.
