Custom font

A New Font In 10 Easy Steps

1. Go to http://mifki.com/df/fontgen/

2. In the Export/Import field set:"cw":10,"ch":12 to get 160x192px output resolution

3. Select your desired font, for a choice of fonts see: https://fonts.google.com/?category=Monospace (needs to be a monospaced font otherwise it won't look good ingame)

4. Adjust the position of the characters in the grid with the |<<| |>>| buttons

5. When you are done, click "Download Tileset Image"

6. Name your tileset something, like example.png

7. Copy example.png into "Dwarf Fortress\data\art" directory

8. Open "Dwarf Fortress\data\init\init_default.txt"

9. Replace "curses_640x300.png" with "example.png" on the following lines (I suggest you leave BASIC_FONT unchanged if you want to have the standard font in the menus upon startup)

[BASIC_FONT:curses_640x300.png]

[FONT:curses_640x300.png]

[FULLFONT:curses_640x300.png]
