Need guideline to write XBF font to partition

Hi, teams.

Trackinghttps://support.dialog-semiconductor.com/forums/post/dialog-smartbond-bluetooth-low-energy-%E2%80%93-software/binary-too-big-if-emwin-font-includedissues, I just noticed the new emWin library & example is uploaded.

Trying to use XBF fonts, found that it should be written prior in a separated partition.

Is there any simple guideline, about how to make font image, or extract built-in fonts as a proper binary format?

Hi teams,

Hi teams,

I read the above note, but still have some more question.

To convert to XBF file, I need Font Converter tool. Where can I find it?

Hi firebird,

Hi firebird,

We don’t provide any tool such as “Font Converter Tool” within the emWin reference application example. You can search it on the web if you need this kind of tool. In Section 11 in the application note, you will find detailed step for converting an image into bitmap datastream format. To do so, the bitmap converter tool, provided by emWin, and can be used.

Thanks, PM_Dialog
