Currently I am using an excel speadsheet to draw out ascii fonts for use in my micro-controller for a LED display. They are given either HEX or BINARY values. I like Binary because I can see them easily and change if needed but HEX values are so much shorter. Is there an easier way or method to auto convert fonts into 1s and 0s or HEX values for let's say a 5x7 or 8x8 font ascii set?
Here is an example:
' ! 21
DATA %11101111
DATA %11000111
DATA %11000111
DATA %11000111
DATA %11101111
DATA %11111111
DATA %11101111
DATA %11111111
it doesn't have to be inverted either.
