Bitmap Font Writer is a free program that let you draw text using a font where each
character is drawn in a bitmap file.
If you’ve drawn your own bitmapped font in for example Photoshop, you are forced to
manually Copy & Paste each character in order to combine them into a word. This
gets pretty tedious if you’re doing buttons for a website, as an example. The purpose
of Bitmap Font Writer is to make this procedure smoother. By arranging your font in
ASCII order and put markers to define the width of each character you may load the
image into Bitmap Font Writer which the combines the characters for you. Then you
simply copy everything to the clipboard to get it back into your painting program.
The program is aimed towards graphic artists, web designers and developers.
