Physical limit to the size of a font?

[Jasoco]

Well, does Löve have the ability to split Font images that aren't all in a straight line like how the Animation feature can take a square image and will wrap to the next line down. I'd put my font into a multi-lined image if I could.

I mean my current Helvetica font image is 2023 pixels wide. What kinds of left out computers would we be looking at if I kept it that size? This is a MacBook with Integrated Graphics by the way. Not the highest end of video "cards" at all.

Its a pretty safe bet that anything made in the last 10 years and has more then 16meg of texture ram on a real video card can deal with 2048x2048 32bit textures, eventho your hitting the limit on just one axis

I know for a fact that my old Geforce 2 GTS (64meg) can deal with them, and I bought that thing early 2000

but I don't recommend using anything above 1024x1024.

Sniff.. another game plan gone

I didn't know TinyPic resized images.

Does anyone else find that ironic?

I think (don't quote me on this since I would be wary of going against the rude's wishes) that the future of ImageFont is to be able to handle fonts drawn in a grid rather than just along a single line.

Apparently if it's huge they shrink it down. I underestimated the width of my font.
