Hi,

I am a newbie in game development (and in English :) ). I noticed that all the PopCap games use same font system. I searched the forum and Dexterity archives for font rendering and I saw two programs, Mudge Font and Bitmap Font Builder.

What tools does PopCap use? Are they third party tools or PopCap developed special tools for themselves? Is it something that everbody knows except me?

What tools do you use?

Thank you.

and it's derivatives... (check links on the bfont page)

For what it's worth, I'm pretty darn sure popcap uses proprietary tools built in-house.
