I created bitmap font by Font Editor (MyGUI 3.2.2).
After I tried to make it outlined (by Stroke effect in Photoshop). However, the stroke line (3 px) does not fit into the character position in font PNG-file.
How can I make more space for characters in Font Editor for making a character stroke?

There is Distance parameter for this.

There is Distance parameter for this.
Distance parameter includes only character space, no free space at left/right for stroke creating.
Besides, characters begin at position 0 and necessary to displace all the characters to the right and downwards and thus recalculate all coordinates of all characters

Maybe you know another (more simple) method to create font with a stroke?

Yesterday I fixed issue with no distance between left and top texture edges.
I'm not sure, but may be it make sense to include half of this distance into glyph, so that you will have bigger area for each glyph, but with same spacing. The problem is that this need to be done either by editing xml or changing generator code.

Today I tried to change FontEditor code for making shifted glyphs. I added half of shift distance into glyphs.
After this I shifted layer of PNG in photoshop and add stroke effect. The result is a very nice outlined font

Thanx!
