[U-Boot] [PATCH 09/19] video: Add a console driver that uses TrueType fonts
Simon Glass
sjg at chromium.org
Fri Jan 15 02:10:42 CET 2016
The existing 8x16 font is adequate for most purposes. It is small and fast.
However for boot screens where information must be presented to the user,
the console font is not ideal. Common requirements are larger and
better-looking fonts.
This console driver can use TrueType fonts built into U-Boot, and render
them at any size. This can be used in scripts to place text as needed on
the display.
This driver is not really designed to operate with the command line. Much
of U-Boot expects a fixed-width font. But to keep things working correctly,
rudimentary support for the console is provided. The main missing feature is
support for command-line editing.

+ TrueTrype fonts can provide outline-drawing capability rather than

+ This sets the font size for the console. The size is measured in
+ pixels and is the nominal height of a character. Note that fonts
+ are commonly measured in 'points', being 1/72 inch (about 3.52mm).
+ However that measurement depends on the size of your display and
+ there is no standard display density. At present there is not a
+ method to select the display's physical size, which would allow
