If you haven't already done this, follow the steps below to add the Add Font script to Aseprite.
In this step you'll create all the characters you want to have in your font. You don't need to add all supported characters, as you can later specify which characters are included in your font. The following characters are currently supported:
abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz
ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
1234567890
`~!@#$%^&*()-=_+[];'\{}:"|,./<>?
The LUA file contains all the information about your custom font. Some information will come from the .ase file you created in the previous step. See Available setting for more information on all font settings.
Even though the LUA file has been placed among the other fonts, the Write Tool itself does not know the new font exists. Some information needs to be added to the LUA file of the Write Tool to be able to select it in the font dropdown.
Now you can use your custom font in the Write Tool.
