Font API

This library for font display on entities (to be used with display_api for sign creation).

Dependancies: default

License: LGPL

(Default font taken from VanessaE's homedecor/signs_lib, originally under WTFPL)

API: See API.md document please.

For more information, see the forum topic at the Minetest forums.

Extra fonts

You can add fonts by installing fonts mod. Be aware that each font comes with numerous textures. This can result in slowing media downloading and/or client display.

Font mods can be found here:

  • Metro: A multipurpose font with many chars (uppercase, lowercase and accentuated latin letters, usual signs, cyrillic and greek letters).
  • OldWizard: An old style gothic font.
  • Botic: A scifi style font.
