Bitmap Font Render

Windows tool for loading and using bitmap fonts (sprite sheets) to render text.

I use this in my retro game development workflow when I need some bitmap font text on a screen or design I'm working on in Aseprite.

How to use: Load a bitmap font (PNG), adjust some parameters, write some text, copy rendered text to clipboard, paste into whatever art program you use.

Mousewheel to zoom, click and drag to pan.

F9 to open Font properties window.

F10 to open Character offsets window.

Tip: You can double click a character to directly edit it's properties.

• Added a menu item for setting render text alignment (left/middle/right).
• Added background color override toggle in font properties.
