Change a PNG font on the fly

[Ian Price]

He's not loading a font - it's a bitmap, hence my two routines for indicating the width of each character.

Doesnt matter if he loads it as sprite or create it at runtime - he just needs to do this before he can use kerning.

That's why I offered the array example (first) as well as the hardcoded method. The array can be filled manually or by the pc checking the char size via code. He's not going to get character font kerning sizes from nowhere.

Here's an example of polyvector fonts from a bitmap image that I created for a TouchPad app a year or so ago.

I know thats why i was just supporting your 1st suggestion. Was just saying that i would not recommand the hardcoded one (your 2nd suggestion), but that your 1st one is a good way.
