Update: Outlined fonts

We have just released an update of Bitmap Font Machine that supports fonts with an outline of variable width. Also, the character spacing can now be set between 0-10 pixels (previously 0-5). A small issue was fixed that had strange effect when a color dialog was closed.

Application updated: Extended Latin support

We just released a new version of the Bitmap Font Machine. This release adds support for extended Latin character sets, so fonts for most roman languages can be generated now.

Sample code updated

The sample code has been updated. Instead rendering characters as single OpenGL quads, there is now a TextLine class which renders a single line of text as a triangle strip using glDrawArrays().
