[RhoSigma]

The easiest solution is using _UPRINTSTRING

Code: (Select All)

SCREEN _NEWIMAGE(640, 320, 32)

f& = _LOADFONT("arial.ttf", 20)

IF f& > 0 THEN _FONT f&



'a single char is easy with Utf-16 or Utf-32,

'if you know the exact unicode codepoint

_UPRINTSTRING (10, 10), MKI$(1046), , 16 'use MKI$() for Utf-16 encoding

_UPRINTSTRING (10, 30), MKL$(1046), , 32 'use MKL$() for Utf-32 encoding

'if you otherwise have a Utf-8 multibyte sequence,

'then you can assemble it

_UPRINTSTRING (10, 50), CHR$(208) + CHR$(150), , 8 'use CHR$() for multibyte Utf-8 encoding



'to write complete text, just concatenate the values

_UPRINTSTRING (10, 80), MKI$(1046) + MKI$(1046), , 16 'use MKI$() for Utf-16 encoding

_UPRINTSTRING (10, 100), MKL$(1046) + MKL$(1046), , 32 'use MKL$() for Utf-32 encoding

_UPRINTSTRING (10, 120), CHR$(208) + CHR$(150) + CHR$(208) + CHR$(150), , 8 'use CHR$() for multibyte Utf-8 encoding



_UPRINTSTRING (10, 160), "press any key...": SLEEP 'or write ASCII as is with _UPRINTSTRING
