Hello.
Just yesterday, when I program some device with OLED, I was think that it will be nice to use TT proportional fonts.
uC in this project is small so it would be also nice when font file will be small too Very Happy

So I was start thinking about Bascom TT fonts and do some test.

This tests brings me new idea that by adding value >0 in place described in Help under topic "Font Editor" fonts can be translated into TT type Razz

You can check with your favoured font by editing it if this work for you.
I dont have time for more tests but I add new function into my Font Maker.
Program I post here, but note that on my site I can quick replace it with new version if I found a bug.

Look how view on the OLED differ by simply add value 2 in magic place Very Happy

Upperline is the new method and old metod is in lowerline.

Have a nice day and let me know how it works for You Very Happy
