README

About:
~~~~~~
`subfont' program renders antialiased fonts for mplayer using freetype library.
Should work with TrueType, Type1 and any other font supported by libfreetype.

Goals:
 - internationalization: supports any 8 bit encoding (uses iconv).
 - nice look: creates glyph `shadows' using algorithm derived from gaussian blur (slow!).


Note:
~~~~~
Starting x position of each char and the bitmap width is aligned to multiple of 8
(required for under-development MMX renderer).


Usage:
~~~~~~
Usage: subfont encoding ppem font [alphaFactor [minAlpha [radius]]]
  Program creates 3 files: font.desc, <encoding>-a.raw, <encoding>-b.raw.
  You should append font.desc.tail (desc for OSD characters by a'rpi & chass) to font.desc,
  and copy font.desc and all *.raw files to ~/.mplayer/font/ directory.

  encoding     must be 8 bit encoding, like iso-8859-2.
               To list encodings available on your system use iconv -l.
  ppem         Font size in pixels (e.g. 24).
  font         Font file path. Any format supported by freetype library (*.ttf, *.pf?, *).
  alphaFactor  Alpha map scaling factor (default is 1.0), float.
  minAlpha     Alpha map minimum value (default is 1.0, max is 255), float.
  radius       Alpha map blur radius (default is 6 pixels), integer.


Example:
~~~~~~~~
make
./subfont iso-8859-2 20 verdana.ttf
cat font.desc.tail >> font.desc
cp font.desc *.raw ~/.mplayer/font/
