KorGE supports Device, Bitmap and TTF fonts on all the targets.
BitmapFonts are handled by KorIM.
Bitmap fonts
You can read a BitmapFont by using the readBitmapFont from KorIM.
It supports the standard XML and FNT bitmap font formats.
suspend fun VfsFile.readBitmapFont(imageFormat: ImageFormat = RegisteredImageFormats): BitmapFont
You can use BitmapFonts with the Text view:
text("Hello World", textSize = 32.0, font = myBitmapFont)
Device fonts
You can construct BitmapFonts, automatically building atlases, by constructing the BitmapFont like this:
fun BitmapFont(fontName: String, fontSize: Int, chars: String = BitmapFontGenerator.LATIN_BASIC, mipmaps: kotlin.Boolean = true)
TTF fonts
You can render TTF fonts to bitmaps to later using them with:
val font = TtfFont(resourcesVfs["myfont.ttf"].readAll().openSync())
val bitmap = NativeImage(512, 128).apply {
getContext2d().fillText(font, "HELLO WORLD", size = 32.0, x = 0.0, y = 0.0, color = Colors.RED, origin = TtfFont.Origin.TOP)
}
