Hello! Whenever you get around to updating to 3.0+, could you please add a invert option, where black and white pixels are swapped? This can be done on other software, but it seems like an easy feature to tack on. Best of luck!
Hello! This software was developed for font generation for GB Studio prior to version 3.0. I got busy and I still haven't released the updated for the most recent versions.
Hopefully, I'll get back on this as soon as I can, thank you for your interest!
Hello there! I never tried using it on Wine. However, since the software has been developed in python and then used Freeze for the Exe compilation, I suppose that It could work on WINE, too. However, I think your question is pretty valid and I'll try myself asap!
Hi there! The software is standalone and it does not need an installation. Extracting the software's folder from the attached archive, you will directly find the program executable. About the use, the process is pretty direct: open the software and you will find a file dialog for opening a .ttf font file -> after selecting your font file a preview is generated in the software. Pressing the button "SAVE" the software will generate inside the folder where you have executed it a file named ascii.png.
One of the attached images in this page is a GIF showing the whole progress :) Furthermore, considering the recent release of GB STUDIO v3.0 it seems there are edits on the font's image format and a new version of this software will be released as well :)

Hi, does this still work for the current gbstudio?

Do you know if this will work in Linux using WINE?

That would be great, thanks! It it works, I'd use it for sure.
How do you even use this program? Where does the program file go? Where does the file generated go? Your page doesn't explain how this works
