I used to use BMFont to generate bitmap fonts for Unity3D when my Windows laptop was still working. It’s still out at the repair center waiting to be fixed, so I’ve been working on a Macbook ever since. Unfortunately, BMFont is only available for Windows, but I found a great alternative called Littera. It’s a web application to generate bitmap fonts and it has numerous awesome extra features such as adding gradient, stroke, shadow, bevel, etc. Generating a bitmap font is very straightforward. You just upload a font set the desired size, resolution and format, and export it!

And if we talking about exporting bitmap font to Unity – this plugin will be useful https://www.assetstore.unity3d.com/#!/content/27216
Some time ago I faced with challenge to import my custom bitmap font to Unity in minutes.
There are several plugins at Unity asset store presented, but I looked for simple one.
And I didn’t find a quick and elegant solution.
So, I created new plugin – CJFinc: Bitmap font tools
It works exactly as I wanted – fast, simple, no runtime resources required.
Here is post at my blog with detailed manual and explanation how to create (most part of manual) and import any bitmap font to Unity.
And the post link http://cjf.in.ua/post/106094357973/cjfinc-bitmap-font-tools 🙂
Wow! Great plugin! I’ll have to take a look at it when I get the chance 🙂
