| Issue |
We have an application where we need to use a specific font.
How do we generate a photon font file?
|
| Solution |
An utility called bdf_2_phf provides the information to create a .phf font file. bdf_2_phf requires that the .bdf be used for the conversion to be of type Unicode.
There is a document located on www.qnx.com, describing the format of 1.14 and earlier versions of .phf files: http://support.qnx.com/support/docs/photon114/run_inst/utils/bdf_2_phf.html
Ensure that after conversion, the resultant .phf <= 64K. If not, the above mentioned document provides a method for generating a font comprised of multiple files.
