It's a pitty BMF fonts don't carry alpha/transparency info as it would allow for proper antialiasing. A lot of fonts here are antialiased to a black background and so they are not suitable to be used over a colored background. The shades of grey could be extrapolated to the alpha channel, but since some fonts are actually colored, that can't be done automatically and reliably for all the fonts... Of course changing the BMF format is out of the question as well i suppose ;)

i'm thinking about a proper design renovation of this site.
all: what do you think about that?

p.s. by "downgrading" I mean the fabulous feature of TTFonts to be scalable (which BMFs can't be). By the way, thanks for question (in several million years) :-)

nope. The thing about bitmap fonts is that they can bear colours (in fact, whole bitmaps). Converting TTF to BMF would actually be a kind of downgrading. And besides, you have much more apps to work with TTF than with bitmap fonts..

Is there an application (that you know) that can convert TTF to BMF??
