SYNOPSIS

unipng2hex -i input_file.png [-o output_file.hex ] [-w width ]

DESCRIPTION

unipng2hex reads a PNG file produced by unihex2png before or after editing, and converts it back into a Unifont .hex format file.

Characters are either 16, 24 or 32 pixel rows high, depending on the "-r" parameter specified by unihex2png. They can be 8, 16, 24, or 32 pixel columns wide (widths of 32 are only supported for 32 pixel row tall characters).
