Opentype Fonts - Asticles - 01-14-2017

Hi all,

I've seen I cannot use opentype fonts with wings.

Is there any plan to implement this in the future?

Thanks!

Hi,Asticles.
Currently Wings3D doesn't support OpenType,TrueType font only supported.
To make to 3D object from OpenType font glyph...
  • One of the ways,Import as SVG or AI file which Text outlinelized by draw software like Inkscape and/or Illustrator.
  • Also,You can convert OpenType to TrueType format using by FontForge

For font related issues, Wings3D has problems to be solved still remain.
So,I expect to personally that support of OpenType font will be much later. Sad
Already,I reported several issues in the bug category before.
