Import font styles

[Klasus]

I want to import some custom font styles. I haven't found any good tutorials. If somebody knows how to do it or knows a good tutorial for it, please tell me.

I think you may need special typeface publication tools as unlike WC3 which used bitmap fonts, SC2 uses typeface files which generate all fonts for the typeface.

A font is a typeface at a certain size. The style is dictated by the typeface while the displayed font is dictated by text size and resolution.

What do you need it for? Alternatively you can use models in small scale for the text and just have the model be the font.. Not a very practical solution, but doable.

I'll just put the text on an image and import it to the editor then.

If I want the image to be like a wireframe where it's transparent at some areas, how should I edit it with paint, adobe PS or other software?

Make sure the alpha is set for the transparent areas.

My advice would be photoshop, because you need a program that supports alpha channel also remember to save as a file type that supports the alpha channel - hence tga, blp - png.
