This adds generate_font.py, a Python utility designed to convert standard TTF/OTF files into a compact bitmapped format suitable for firmware framebuffers. Key features: - Generates a left-aligned (normalized) bitmapped table to eliminate dead space in font glyphs. - Outputs a character width table to support proportional spacing. - Exports FONT_HEIGHT and FONT_WIDTH macros for C synchronization. - Limits output to printable ASCII (32-126) to minimize binary bloat. The tool uses the Pillow (PIL) library to rasterize glyphs and is intended to be used during the build process to generate C source files for splash screen text rendering. Usage: python util/font/generate_font.py <font.ttf> > font_table.c Change-Id: Iec8907f1a5f24d61822230f6a22295c8382d2229 Signed-off-by: Subrata Banik <subratabanik@google.com> Reviewed-on: https://review.coreboot.org/c/coreboot/+/91122 Tested-by: build bot (Jenkins) <no-reply@coreboot.org> Reviewed-by: Kapil Porwal <kapilporwal@google.com> |
