BMFont ASCII File Parser

library 1.0.6 ·javascript abandoned
verified May 27, 2026

The `parse-bmfont-ascii` library is designed to parse ASCII-formatted BMFont (Bitmap Font) files into a structured JavaScript object. It specifically handles the human-readable text-based `.fnt` files generated by tools like AngelCode BMFont. This package, currently at version 1.0.6, was last published 11 years ago, indicating it is no longer actively maintained. It accepts either a string or a Node.js `Buffer` containing the BMFont data and returns a JavaScript object detailing font metadata (`info`, `common`), individual character properties (`chars`), kerning pairs (`kernings`), and referenced page textures (`pages`). Its primary function is to provide a lightweight, dedicated parser for this specific text-based bitmap font format, distinct from XML or binary BMFont variants. Given its age, it relies on CommonJS module patterns and does not inherently support ESM or TypeScript type definitions.
