## Bitmap font: included fonts

```{r}
get_lofi_names('bitmap')
```

## Bitmap font functions

* `bitmap_text_coords()` returns a data.frame of pixel locations
* `bitmap_text_matrix()` returns a binary matrix with pixel locations set to 1
* `bitmap_text_raster()` returns a raster image of the text


## Bitmap font: Rendering text

Text may be rendered with a bitmap font to 

1. A data.frame of pixel locations
2. A binary matrix of pixel locations
3. A simple `raster` object 

```{r bitmap-coords, fig.height = 3}
library(lofifonts)
bitmap_text_coords("Hello", font = 'unifont') |>
  head()
```


```{r bitmap-raster, fig.height = 3}
bitmap_text_raster("Hello", "unifont") |>
  plot()
```

## Bitmap font: Bespoke pixel rendering

This is an example of bespoke rendering of the pixel data for an example string.

Each pixel in the `coords` data.frame has an `x` and `y` coordinates, and to 
render this font, a small square will be drawn for each pixel.  

A gap will be left between the rectangels to highlight the pixelated origin 
of the text.

```{r bitmap-bespoke, fig.height = 4, fig.width = 8}
library(grid)
coords <- bitmap_text_coords("Hello\n#RStats", "spleen-6x12")
head(coords)

grid.newpage()
grid.rect(
  x = coords$x * 4, 
  y = coords$y * 4, 
  width  = 3, 
  height = 3, 
  default.units = 'mm',
  gp = gpar(fill = rainbow(nrow(coords)), col = NA)
)
```
