]]> Many people were asking me to publish the code that creates the font files used in the SSD1306 OLED library. Well, I was hesitating since the code was a bit hacky. So I sat down and created an online tool which is now open for Beta testing. It allows you to select a font from a list of integrated Apache licensed files, choose font size and style (plain, italic, bold) and then create the C file which you can copy paste into your Arduino IDE. Almost forgot, there is also a preview of how the font will look on the display…

It might not be perfect yet and I’m looking forward to get your feedback…
And here is the tool: http://oleddisplay.squix.ch/
