I’ve been looking around on some font websites, and they say that the fonts there are bitmap fonts, however I thought it would be provided in a png+xml format instead of the usual .ttf. Is there a good website for fonts that are a png and xml format? Is there some kind of converter to convert it into a valid format for Phaser?

[BMFont](https://www.angelcode.com/products/bmfont/) is a free tool which can convert conventional fonts into bitmap fonts. Some of the fonts in Phaser’s examples appear to have been generated with [Glyph Designer](https://www.71squared.com/glyphdesigner), which I know nothing about.

You can use an online font converter:  
[http://kvazars.com/littera/](http://kvazars.com/littera/)

This tool lets you import your own font and is able to generate a PNG file along with a FNT file which contains every character description. Both files can be directly loaded in the ‘preload’ function of your game.

> this.load.bitmapFont(‘font\_name’, ‘assets/fonts/your\_font.png’, ‘assets/fonts/your\_font.fnt’);
