Reduce a Master Font to a Multi Language Font
Drag and Drop an EuropeanFonts library master font on IconEdit and reduce the font to a few languages by just a few clicks.
With this procedure you can make C-source code fonts for any language supported by IconEdit and the EuropeanFont library.
How to make a similar font from the commandline
Start IconEdit:
C:\IconEdit\IconEdit.exe
Open the Library Font, it can be C-Source .c or Compressed .cbn:
C:\IconEdit\IconEdit.exe C:\Font\T_32x32_b_g2.cbn
Read the first text for the font with :O, IconEdit makes a font for the whole text:
C:\IconEdit\IconEdit.exe C:\Font\T_32x32_b_g2.cbn :OC:\Text\BulgarianLatin.txt
Set output font name with :F, the name should be related to the input text:
C:\IconEdit\IconEdit.exe C:\Font\T_32x32_b_g2.cbn :OC:\Text\BulgarianLatin.txt :FC:\Font\Bulgarian_txt.c
This reduces the font Bulgarian_txt.c to only Latin characters.
Next add some more languages:
Start IconEdit:
C:\IconEdit\IconEdit.exe
Open the Latin font:
C:\IconEdit\IconEdit.exe C:\Font\Bulgarian_txt.c
Set output font name with :F, the name should be the same as the input font to do the expanding:
C:\IconEdit\IconEdit.exe C:\Font\Bulgarian_txt.c :FC:\Font\Bulgarian_txt.c
Read the next language for the font with :P, IconEdit adds the missing characters to the font:
C:\IconEdit\IconEdit.exe C:\Font\Bulgarian_txt.c :FC:\Font\Bulgarian_txt.c :PC:\Text\BulgarianCyrillic.txt
Choose wich master font to use with A, the same master font as for the first text:
C:\IconEdit\IconEdit.exe C:\Font\Bulgarian_txt.c :FC:\Font\Bulgarian_txt.c :PC:\Text\BulgarianCyrillic.txt :AC:\Font\T_32x32_b_g2.cbn
These two batch runs generates the reduced font Bulgarian_txt.c.
