using bmfont to export font for editing in photoshop problem
« on: November 06, 2012, 06:20:59 AM »
I am exporting sucessfully fonts from bmfont in unity and using them with ngui, but i want to add shadows directly to the font in photoshop. tga that i am getting is black or white, when used some presets to get alpha or image is flattend and there are not layers for font and background...everything is in the same layer so i can not make use of the drop shadow effect.

what are the correct export settings for bmfont to get targa where font and background are in the separate layers.
how this could be done? thanks!

Try using PNG instead of TGA.
