Create Font with "All Characters" dosen't work
Sep 27th, 2009, 10:21am  
Hi !

I'm using Mac Os X.6 and the last build of processing (1.0.7). I'd like to create a font with all the characters (to be able to use japanese hiraganas), but it never works, whatever font i choose.
I got no crash, but this error in the console.

Is this a known bug ? In the meantime, is there a way to get a .vlw file which would contain a full set of characters (any font) ?

Thanks !

Look again: you have an OutOfMemoryError. Even if Processing was successful in making your font, it would be huge! It would consume lot of memory when running your sketch, and would load slowly.
No need to export the full Unicode range when you need only one charset. Even more if you are limiting yourself to kana...
See Re: problem - unicode string in P2D and P3D mode for a solution to your issue.
