non-blank outline on bitmap font?

[Seirie]

Hey fellas, maybe I'm just not seeing something, but there doesn't seem to be an intuitive way to make an outline for font any color other than black. At least, not using BMFont (Glyph Designer appears to offer the option if you're willing to part with the cash).

What's the most efficient way of accomplishing this? Thanks!

You can't change the border color independently in tk2d - well you could but the shader would be expensive... But you could do what glyph designer does.

If you export the channels from BMFont as described in the tk2d docs, you can load the file into photoshop / gimp and edit the contents... You can isolate the border and then change the color in whatever way you like. You can pretty much do whatever Glyph Designer does, manually.

Oh awesome. Works for me. Thanks!
