The FONT format defines fonts that can be used to display text in-game.
|
To do: Notate differences between different versions of the format. Only Metroid Prime's FONT version is documented at the moment. Character definition structure should be expanded on; there should be a section explaining what each value does, and it should be made more clear which UV coordinate corresponds to which vertex. |
|
This file format needs more research There's some unknowns in the header, and some of the values in the character definition structure should be double-checked. |
Format
Header
| Offset | Size | Description |

| 0x0 | 4 | "FONT" magic fourCC |
| 0x4 | 4 | Version; see below |
| 0x8 | 4 | Unknown Font Metric (in points) |

| 0x18 | 4 | Unknown |
| 0x1C | 2 | Unknown |
| 0x20 | 4 | Font Size (in points) |
| 0x22 | N | Font name; zero-terminated string |
| 0x22+N | 4 | TXTR file ID |
| 0x26+N | 4 | Unknown |
| 0x2A+N | 4 | Glyph Count |

| 5 | Metroid Prime 3/DKCR |

Glyph Entry (Version 4)
Character Definitions
This part of the file defines each character of the font. It starts with a 32-bit count value.
| Offset | Type | Size | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0x0 | u16 | 2 | UTF-16 character |
| 0x2 | float | 4 | Left UV coordinate |
| 0x6 | float | 4 | Top UV coordinate |
| 0xA | float | 4 | Right UV coordinate |
| 0xE | float | 4 | Bottom UV coordinate |
| 0x12 | u32 | 4 | Glyph left padding |
| 0x16 | u32 | 4 | Print head advance |
| 0x1A | u32 | 4 | Glyph right padding |
| 0x1E | u32 | 4 | Character width |
| 0x22 | u32 | 4 | Character height |
| 0x26 | u32 | 4 | Kerning index |
| 0x2A | End of character definition | ||
Kerning Table
This table is at the end of the file, and defines kerning pairs. It starts with a 32-bit count value and then loops the following structure:
| Offset | Size | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 0x0 | 2 | Character 1 |
| 0x2 | 2 | Character 2 |
| 0x4 | 4 | Kerning adjust |
| 0x8 | End of entry | |
