Class Font

java.lang.Object
  de.esw.eengine.resource.AbstractResource
      de.esw.eengine.resource.Font

All Implemented Interfaces:

IResource

public class Font
extends AbstractResource
implements IResource

Implements a font resource. Fonts are stored in a font archive (JarFile with .fnt extension) and a Manifest file for meta data. The meta data consist of a Width and a Height attriute for the font image. The image must be in JPG, PNG or GIF format.
An font always consists of the following characters in the following order:

!"#$%&'()*+�-./0123456789:;<=>?@[\]ˆ_
ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz

Therefore there must be 38 characters on the first line, and 26 on the second line. The third line is optional, so there could be 'uppercase only' fonts.
