Creates a new Font by loading a specifically formatted image.
In versions prior to 0.9.0, LÖVE expects ISO 8859-1 encoding for the glyphs string.
|
This function can be slow if it is called repeatedly, such as from love.update or love.draw. If you need to use a specific resource often, create it once and store it somewhere it can be reused! |
