hd-font-generator's Introduction

HD Font Generator

This tool creates HD font resource packs using installed fonts on the system. If it's supported and installed in your computer, you can use it.

To use, select the font and texture size from the dropdown boxes and click Create. A zip named using the font name and the size will be created in the directory it was started from. Add this file as a resource pack.

For command line usage, just give it a font name with spaces replaced with underscores, then the texture. A nonexistent font will use the JRE default (dialog.plain).

Note: Every font is different, so some may look weird and require tweaking after generation, but most fonts should be fine.

Download

The generator can be downloaded from the Release page. Pick the file for your operating system.

Extract the zip or tar file to run the executable.

Options

Different options can be customized before generation. These include:

Font: The font family to use, pre-populated from system fonts.
Texture Size: The size of the texture. Limited to one of x32, x64, x128, x256, x512. Higher resolution textures will take longer to generate
Pack Format: The minecraft version range to generate the font for. Supports formats 1 through 7.
Unicode: (legacy), Generates the full extended unicode, which consists of 256 pages, each with 256 characters. Fallback font uses the gnu uniform font.
Parallel: Uses multiple threads to generate font bitmaps in parallel.

Development

Note: The project uses JDK 17.

Gradle Tasks

The following Gradle tasks can be used to run or build the project.

./gradlew run - Runs the project with gradle
./gradlew build - Build the project and package dependencies with a launch script. This is useful if you have the JDK installed already, though you have to extract it manually.
./gradlew jPackageDist - Create a platform-specific archive which bundles the JRE. The unarchived build files are located in build/jpackage.

hd-font-generator's Issues

Glyph Size

Hello my friend
When I output a font for minecraft 1.11-1.12.2 it outputs very small glyphs.
The intended size for the glyphs is the old Minecraft font.

Original font orange letters
Turquoise blue letters of the output font taken with HD Font Generate

There is no problem with the font that was used and there is a similar problem for other fonts.
I know that you can use truetype in Minecraft, but this feature was added from version 1.13.

How to open

i download it but idk how to open it lol

Unable to launch

gradlew.bat installs files, and stops

Chinese Characters are broken

Use Unicode(Legacy): All characters don't display
Not use Unicode:Only ASCII can display

Unicode does not work at x64 or higher

It says only "Working...".
I need unicode, because german umlauts and special letters like ä,ö,ü or ß won't be displayed without unicode.

[macOS] where are the logs stored ?

Tahoma bold

Hi, i'm kind of a newbie to all of this, so idk where to ask and how to do stuff lol

I want to generate the Tahoma Bold font with this program, which is under the Tahoma font. I can create the Tahoma font no issues, but I can't find where/how to create one with it in bold.

Sorry if I missed something or posted this in the wrong place.

Can't download the latest JAR File.

On that page is only the Sourcecode... Where is the executable JAR?

MacOS broken error and user bypass

So, whenever you download the app and run it, you'll get thrown the dreaded "hdfontgen.app" is damaged and can't be opened. You should move it to the Trash. error.

However, after looking at the content packages, I found that it's only the /Applications/hdfontgen.app/Contents/MacOS/hdfontgen file that's broken.

However, if you run the /Applications/hdfontgen.app/Contents/runtime/Contents/Home/bin/hdfontgen file, it will open just like normal

This is what you'll see

The app does work too, I used Webdings as a test and it worked perfectly

No idea why it's happening, but a fix would be helpful :)

specific font not showing up

the specific font im trying to use is https://github.com/FMS-Cat/Wt-Position but it isnt anywhere in the program

JDK 15.0.1 Incompatibility?

After creation fonts come out too small in game.

All is said in the title

Made for an older version of Minecraft

Fantastic tool!

Are there any plans to update this to 1.9.4 and 1.10?

Installed new fonts, program mostly shows Dialog.plain

I reformated my pc a couple of days ago and redownloaded my fonts i used to have, and then opened HD font generator again. It worked before installing, but after a 400 font installation I think the program got overloaded or something and now is only showing Dialog.plain on most fonts, and only loads the default windows ones

Font Fallback Stack?

Is it possible to make the font fall back to another font if the letter is not supported? I know that CSS can do it, and Minecraft does it by default.

For example, I have a font called Nihonium that I want to use for ASCII, Latin A, Latin B, and Greek, but if that is not supported in the font, I want to specify the program to use PixelM+, a Japanese pixel font, and if that isn't supported either, probably the default Unicode font for Minecraft.
