6.5 Working with Bitmap Files
Uploading a bitmap is the same as uploading a font file except that the character header information is not
required.
The bitmap file consists of a header followed by the bitmap data. The header format is as follows:
! Placeholder for actual EOF (2 bytes, use 0xFF 0xFF – these bytes will be set to their final value by the
module)
! x size of bitmap (1 byte)
! y size of bitmap (1 byte)
Bitmap data follows with the bits organized vertically from the top left (see Figure 4-1). The last byte may
be padded with zeros.
Aside from the different header, bitmap file operations are identical to those described for font files in
section 6.4.
