Used to transform 8bit VLW file into 4bit VLW file with no padding support.
|
||||
|
||||
**Advantage**: It will save at least 50% space.
|
||||
|
||||
**Limitation**: Fonts that height over 255 are not being generated properly.

Header of vlw file is the same as uncompressed;it comprises 6 uint32_t parameters (24 bytes total):
|

|

1. The gCount (number of character glyphs)
|

2. A version number (0xB = 11 for uncompressed,0XC = 12 for compressed 4bit)

3. The font size (in points, not pixels)

Each pixel is 0.5 byte, an 4 bit Alpha value which represents the transparency from

0xF foreground colour, 0x0 background.When a line consist of odd number of pixels,the last byte

for the last pixel of the line will be filled with 0 as low 4 bits.

4 bits alpha value will be generated to 8 bits before drawing.
