PixFont Studio 0.1.0

The first preview release for PixFont Studio.

This is incredibly early software. I only spent like a week's worth of hours on it. Expect crashes.

What is working:

  • Create a blank font
  • Add glyphs from predefined sets
  • Save and load your project
  • Import and export Pentacom BitFontMaker2 fonts
  • Edit the glyphs

What isn't working:

  • Other export formats
  • Copy and paste
  • Fill tool
  • Keyboard shortcuts

Bug hunting tips

These are debug builds with all sorts of additional debugging information built in to help with tracking down bugs.

Report issues on GitHub or itch.io.

Start PixFont Studio from a terminal and set RUST_BACKTRACE=full to show the full stack trace.

# macOS and Linux
RUST_BACKTRACE=full ./pixfont-studio
# windows (powershell)
$env:RUST_BACKTRACE = "full"
./pixfont-studio.exe

Nicer error handling and reporting coming in a future release.

For Windows and macOS users

These releases aren't signed yet.

Windows will pop-up with the SmartScreen prompt, which you will need to accept.

macOS users will need to clear the quarantine attribute:

xattr -d com.apple.quarantine path/to/pixfont-studio

I'm working on getting an Apple developer certificate to notarise releases going forward, probably later this year.
