The manual says that all fonts are stroked, except for the default
8x8 bitmap font (which is compiled into the graphics library).
I have some bitmapped fonts that I want to load.  How can I get BC++
to recognize these bitmap fonts?  Anyone have a conversion utility
from bitmap to .CHR stroked fonts?


Thanks for any help!
