Title: Fonts in AGS with æøå
Post by: Peder 🚀 on Mon 04/06/2007 21:45:01
Hey,

I am currently working on a game that will be in Norwegian (will be translated to English for everyone on here that dont understand Norwegian).
And as many might know we have these letters: ÆØŠ

So my question would be, is there a simple way of getting those characters into the game?
One idea would be to replace the different symbols like # etc with the letters but then when we gonna get the dialogs and such translated it will get a bit confusing.
Also it will be extra work when writing all the Norwegian dialogs etc in AGS.

It is possible to write AE, OE and AA instead of those letters but it would be best with those letters.

Any type of help with this is appreciated alot!


Thanks,

Just import a TTF font, then extended ASCII characters, including Norwegian letters should be supported without any replacements etc. Of course the TTF font must contain those letters for it to work, but all standard windows fonts (Arial, Verdana etc.) do that.
