Also single bitmap fonts can be generated and outline fonts can be con- verted into bitmap (Color)fonts. ColorFontMaster can generate Colorfonts in the following manners: - Create Colorfonts out of single bitmap/outline fonts and extrude-, edge- and fill them with brushes or textures. - Edit existing Colorfonts into new ones. - Create Colorfonts out of any image, where the glyphs are already drawn and you just have to clip them. - Draw your own Colorfonts in the ColorFontMaster editor. It uses OS 2.04 or better and in case the locale.library is present, the program will display its texts in the selected language, otherwise the english language is used as a default.
