To do: Document what the settings in data.json do

bfntoolkit is a tool that unpacks and packs font files developed by NerduMiner.

Unpacking and packing[edit]

To unpack a font file, drag the pikmin2main.bfn file onto bfntoolkit.exe. This will create a folder containing PNG files that must be edited with an external image editing software.

To pack the edited font images, drag the pikmin2main folder onto bfntoolkit.exe to create a new file called "pikmin2main_new.bfn", which is the edited font file.

data.json[edit]

In addition to the PNG files, there's also a configuration JSON that lets you configure the font, including width and leading.
