How do I make a custom font?

[Xe]

I have a .ttf font I'd like to load onto my badger. How would I do that?

Looks like fonts are provided by C++ libraries:

• https://github.com/pimoroni/pimoroni-pico/tree/main/libraries/bitmap_fonts
• https://github.com/pimoroni/pimoroni-pico/tree/main/libraries/hershey_fonts

To use the font, you would need to transform it into a format recognized by library (see _data files), build firmware with your patch and install it on your badger. Only then you will be able to select font from Python code.

Note that I am just an user, and I got my badger literally yesterday. I don't know much about building firmware and installing it.
