Title: Recommended font sizes
Post by: johns on May 20, 2014, 10:37:36 AM

I'm creating bitmap fonts using the bitmap maker. Is it necessary to have a different font made for every possible font size that I'm going to have within my UI? Or can I make a larger font (size 50) and use it in all of my labels? Will there be any disadvantages in having a single larger font?

Thanks!

When you shrink a large font down to a smaller size in a label, the visual look of it will be inferior to that of a font that's using the pixel-appropriate size. How noticeable this is depends on the font itself. I'd say try it -- if it looks good enough, stick to it.
