Hi,
Not sure if this query belongs to this forum sorry for that!
How do we generate the fonts is there any tool to do it ? I was looking at the fbtest tool which has predefined fonts for sun which says its generated
by cpi2fnt but I didnt find any tool to do that.
Any pointers on this would be much helpful.
Thanks & Regards,
-Sagar

Thanks for the pointers, I tried xxd/convert/font2c but nothing worked out for me!
In the fbtest how is the penguin_data[] and clut [] array populated ?

They're created from images/penguin.ppm using pnmtohex/pnmtohex.c.

Thanks!
Are there any font rendering library to display on small oleds using framebuffer ?
something similar to what test10 in fbtest does.
