FontGL

It consists of two modules.
First module is a command line program which takes as input a truetype font (or other type) and extracts in an output png image the requested font glyphs. An xml used as input preferences and an xml or binary created as output with glyph properties.

Second module is a OpenGL library to render such fonts. It is very abstract and very simple. Basically it is like a snippet.

Project Samples

Texture with Calibri Normal and Calibri Bold truetype font glyphs, as saved from Font Creator 3 (consider the minification of area wastage)

Tiny fonts without padding. Inappropriate for mipmapping minification
