Editing XMB Fonts

=Description=

In [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Typography typography], a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Typeface font family] (also known as typeface) is a set of one or more fonts each composed of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glyph glyphs] that share common design features

PS3 fonts are made by [http://fontworks.co.jp Fontworks] Japan (for SCE-PS3 Rodin/NewRodin/SEURAT/Matisse JPN/LATIN/EXT Bold/Regular/Italic), [http://dynacomware.net dynacomware] (for DFHeiW5-A), [https://www.urwpp.de/english/home.html urwpp] (for VAGRundschriftDLig, VAGRundschriftDLig2 and the Sony-CC), [http://www.yoondesign.com yoondesign] (for SCE-PS3 YD gd Bold, SCE-PS3 YD gd Light and SCE-PS3 YD gd Medium)

In PS3 firmware 2.00 it was added a feature that allows the user to select the font style in [[XMB]] column {{icon category settings}}->[''Theme settings'']->[''Font''] from the default "original", "rounded", or "pop". This same setting can be modifyed by installing a [[PlayStation 3 Theme (P3T)|.p3t theme]] and theoretically the setting should be stored in the list of "user settings" inside [[XRegistry.sys]]

 

The font file that will be used to display the texts is chosen by the PS3 firmware based on the [[Languages|language]] setting

 

Some parts of the firmware specifies the font style that will be used by using a "font family" as can be seen in [[RCOXML Fonts]], there is not a known complete list of all the font families used by the system though. And is possible to change color, size, shadow and other text effects in the [[RCOXML Objects]] related

 

Some error codes are specific for fonts as [[Error_Codes#Debug_errors|Debug font error codes]], and [[Error_Codes#Font_errors|Font error codes]] where can be seen how the firmware uses the codenames "fontset" and "glyph"

 

 

**Go to "start" (or windows key+x) /open terminal (Ctrl+Alt+T), click in "run" and type: '''charmap''', then enter

==imagefont.bin==

<div style="float:right">[[File:Imagefont.bin PS3 4.60 contents (BUTTONS).jpg|600px|thumb|left|BUTTONS group, from "private use area" inside imagefont.bin PS3, with the UTF-8 hexadecimal value]]</div>

The purpose of imafefont.bin is to override some of the glyps from the standard unicode character map used by the TTF files. Contains icons in high quality using colors, alpha, and optionally animations

 

===Formats and versions===

*There are two different imagefont.bin formats:

***PS3: in path '''dev_flash/pspemu/flash0/font/imagefont.bin''' (added since 3.15, used by PSP emulator VSH)

 

 

 

The versions of this files listed in the tables below are refered to the exact binary that was included in either PS3 or PSVita firmwares

 

 

{| class="wikitable sortable" style="font-size:small;"

| rowspan="6" | {{icon content ps3}} || [[1.90_CEX|1.90]]~[[1.94_CEX|1.94]] || 385816 || 3e74a50419c165f4208b84adcbf2881f || 0x0090 || 0x0129 || initial 297 icons, initial file format (prototype v0.90?)

| colspan="7" {{cellcolors|lightgrey}}

 

# - Decompress and loads the palette for an icon (at middle of imagefont.bin), it tells where is/are located the image/s of the icon (one for static, or several for animated)

 

 

{| class="wikitable"

| align="center" | 0x00 || align="center" | 0x02 || '''format_version''' ? || align="center" | 01 00 || File structure/features identifyer ?

 

By reading the header can be deduced some additional infos about the index. We know every entry in the index is 0x10 bytes length so... '''index_entries''' * '''index_entry_length''' = '''index_length'''. Also '''index_offset''' + '''index_length''' = end of file

 

From this point (after reading the header) the file access order "jumps" to the bottom of the file (to the index) so for wiki readers that are reading this for first time is suggested to scroll down the page and continue reading at the '''Index''' section

 

 

This is the first glyph, cropped and zlib decompressed individually, is "dualshock circle button" (U+F880 in unicode), every byte works as a color ID, the view mode has been changed to "26 bytes per row" in the hexeditor (for a representation of a 26 pixels width icon)

<table style="width:100%;">[[File:Imagefont.bin 1st glyph.jpg|350px|thumb|left|First glyph, pixel data of "dualshock circle button" (U+F880 in unicode) inside dev_flash/vsh/resource/imagefont.bin]]</table>

The info contained here can be differenced in two groups, '''colormap_count''' and '''colormap_bpp''' are the number of colors and color channels that are stored (a.k.a. indexed color) in the colormap area at bottom of the palette, '''frames_count''' and '''animation_time''' are the number of images of the icon and info about the animation

 

 

{| class="wikitable" style="font-size:small;"

| 0x02 || 0x01 || '''colormap_bpp''' ? || 04 || 04 || 04 || 04 || 04 || To store colors in RGBA channels, 1 byte each

 

From here can be deduced some infos, we know every frame is 0xC length so... '''frames_count''' * 0xC = '''frames_table_length''' (the position where starts the colormap). And '''colormap_count''' * '''colormap_bpp''' = '''colormap_length'''

 

The amount of entries in the palette frame table is defined by the value above named '''frames_count''', in static icons this area appears only one time, for animated icons there are several

 

For every image in the icon (or every frame of the animation) there is an entry here of 0xC length with info specific for that frame (doesnt applyes to other frames of the same animation)... in the practise what we are namig a frame here is the same than a image of the '''Image table''' that is going to be loaded in the next step

The order of how the colors appears in the colormap is very important, every color is given a unique '''color_id''', the first color is ID = 0x00 and last color is ID = 0xFF (for a total of 256 indexed colors)

 

Also, the colors are ordered in a "increasing order" by using the hexadecimal values, so if are present 0x00000000 goes first and 0xFFFFFFFF goes last, and red tone colors goes last because pure red is 0xFF000000 so higher red tones generates bigger hexadecimal values

 

 

 

After reading all this info from the different areas of the icon palette ('''palette header''', '''palette frames table''', and '''palette colormap''') the file access order "jumps" back to decompress and load the images... so scroll up the wiki page to continue reading at the '''Image table'''

 

The index is composed by entries with 0x10 bytes each, every entry has the info about an specific icon, the info in it can be readed directly (index is not compressed). From this point is explained the different values that composes an index entry

 

The most important value from a index entry is the '''unicode_hex_id''' of the icon, this identifyer follows the same format used by the characters/glyphs inside the TTF font files, in other words... are complementary and both imagefont.bin and the TTF files works like components of the same character map (and it seems imagefont.bin has preference, not confirmed though)

 

The '''image_width''' and '''image_height''' tells the dimensions of the icon, no mistery with them, only detail that needs to be mentioned about them is for animated icons composed by several images all the images needs to have the same dimensions, because the dimensions are indicated in the index it means is not posible to create animations with images of different sizes

 

There is an '''unknown''' value at the end, this one should be important (and maybe there is some easter egg hidden in it), is supposed to be a generic descriptor of the icon, or some information needed to know by the firmware about the icon BEFORE accessing any other aditionally data. The point is all the other areas that are going to be accessed in the next steps are compressed in zlib so this unknown value is something that is useful/interesting to know even BEFORE loading the icon data

 

Then is used the value '''palette_length_decompressed''' to reserve an area in memory for zlib decompression purposes (because the palette file that is going to be loaded in next step is zlib compressed), and the palette file is located by using the values '''palette_offset''' and '''palette_length_compressed'''

Time is meassured in centiseconds (a hundredth of a second). A centisecond is a unit of time equal to 0.01 seconds. See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centisecond and https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/centisecond

 

Note that all the times used in ofw are multiplyers of 0x14, this is 1/5 of a second, or in other words a "fifth part" of a second (0.20 seconds in decimal), it can be seen also as the faster speed used by official icons (the tornado uF4A6 animated icon uses this frame time), also it can be used to represent the frame rate of the animation meassured in "frames per second" like in a video, to calculate the FPS of an animation is needed to divide 1 by the frame time, this applyes only to animations where all the frames uses the same time (a.k.a. a constant frame rate mantained from start to end at the same FPS)
