hello ! What a wonderful pièce of software ! I suggest you provide with an export module to Construct 3 sprite font. https://www.construct.net/en/make-games/manuals/construct-3/plugin-reference/sprite-font

Check for Spacing data

Inspiration may come from https://www.construct.net/en/forum/game-development/tools-and-resources-27/sprite-font-generator-v3-64038

Look for exported files. 

Hello, I have prepared "Snippets" button. It allow to copy "Spacing data" which Construct user need to apply in Sprite font property. As I was testing it worked properly, but you need to disable "centered" checkbox which I will also describe in tool description soon.

That is amazing ! Thank you ! 

Do you think in the future your tool may accept fonts others than Google's ?

Well it's possible that I will provide an input form to import font from url. In this way there will be possibility to create bitmap from all fonts which are accessible by any server. For example here: https://www.cdnfonts.com/grames.font you will need to copy that url on right.

At this moment if we want to use different font we can paste in browser console small js code like below:

const style = document.createElement("style")

style.textContent = `
@font-face {
    font-family: 'YourFontName';
    src: url('https://fonts.cdnfonts.com/s/30605/GRAMES.woff');
}
#preview {
font-family: 'YourFontName' !important;
}
`

document.head.appendChild(style)

That would be nice :)

I tested your C3 export, it works !

One thing about it : for given height and width value in google font to bitmap converter, these values are to be doubled in C3 SpriteFont properties. Example : in google font to bitmap converter, width and height are 30, they should be 60 in SpriteFont properties (see img)

Yeah, It's because of pixel ratio. Probably you have Macbook or other higher density screen and this result in larger bitmap.

I have fixed it locally already,  update will be deployed next weekend.

That's it, it's on a Mac. Thank you for your incredible work !

I was thinking of something else : would it be possible to choose a font through a file upload button ? The tool appears to be made on Construct, right ? 

Good news, I've added file input button. Looks it works.
