How to make a Unicode text optimized font

With this procedure you can make C-source code fonts for any language supported by IconEdit and the EuropeanFont library.



How to make the same font from the commandline

Start IconEdit:

C:\IconEdit\IconEdit.exe

Open the Library Font, it can be C-Source .c or Compressed .cbn:

C:\IconEdit\IconEdit.exe C:\Font\T_32x32_b_g2.cbn

Read the text for the optimized font with :O, IconEdit finds the C_Strings and makes a font for the texts in the C-Strings:

C:\IconEdit\IconEdit.exe C:\Font\T_32x32_b_g2.cbn :OC:\Text\Astronomy.c

Set output font name with :F, the name should be related to the input text:

C:\IconEdit\IconEdit.exe C:\Font\T_32x32_b_g2.cbn :OC:\Text\Astronomy.c :FC:\Font\Astronomy.c

This generates the text optimized font Astronomy.c
