shame you cant use this for IMT, for making text on the roads with this font with the new IMT Lanes update

u have to use "Transport" font for the text on road signage and direction signs if u want it as British road standard.

@Olasola424 In the text settings in PO you'll see a b and a i, click them to change to the different fonts. Then press the relevant key for the symbol you want

@Olasola424 It's an option in the PO menu

How do i add for example the British Rail symbol to my PO sign prop?

Oh thanks...
And sorry, didn't notice that explanation.

@macluk Both screenshots are 'uk font'
Use the Bold italic and normal options to change between fonts

oh i've got the greek alphabet there but i thought it would be the same as in the screenshot (that 2nd one) - where it starts with a camping site sign and then the rose follows (presumably yorkshire one).

@macluk There are no symbols with 'po font tm' They should be just letters and numbers. If it's not working for you. You can use another creators TM font which is the same.

ermmm... so the first set - "uk po font" - works fine, but i don't seem to be extract any symbols from the other set - "uk font tm" - for some reason there are latin and greek alphabet letters only and no symbols :/
How to get them to work?

Got the c, p and q working seems the interface is a bit buggy as i had to click back n fore the typefaces to get the icons to show https://ibb.co/5RHdPvq

It's ok i fixed my issue i had the wrong font typeface selected to use the m button to show the hotel sign, all sorted now but thanks for the reply. Although i can confirm c,p and q fail to give me the ship and anchor signs too. If i find any others i'll let you know.

@CyberVibes According to the comments by aubergine18 below, all those letters works apart from lower case c, p and q. I will look into this anyways

When trying to use the font that you have in your second image all i get is lettters, i'm trying to create a hotel sign and wanted to use the hotel icon which is supposed to be under the letter m in the second font type. Any help would be appreciated.

@aubergine Thanks for testing, I did test myself all the characters, I don't know how I missed the lower case letters. PO has only ever shown a preview for normal, and there is a rotate button for sure. I posted the previews in both the font and sign pack workshop pages for reference.

Ok, did some more testing - looks like the fonts are there, but PO isn't updating the font preview screen in-game (it only shows Normal font, even if I select bold or italic). But at least now I know I can use those characters even if they're not in the preview.

Also, you've got left/right "arrow lines" for roundabouts, but not up/down. Could those be added? I couldn't find any way to rotate a text symbol in the UI.

@Sparks: Some of the font works, but there are many bits missing (the log lists which textures have errors). For example, I'm not seeing lowercase 'c' or 'p' ships or the 'q' anchor.

UnityEngine errors if an individual texture width and/or height is not a power of 2. It just rejects the texture (stuff to do with box packing algorithms in texture atlases IIRC).

@Leonpeonleon I guess so

Does it work with using right hand drive?

@aubergine18 Does the font work for you?

@Sparks: I have the version from Workshop - I assume that's the latest?

@aubergine18 Do you have the latest version of PO?

Getting lots of errors in game log with these fonts, for example:

[ProceduralObjects] Font error in font UKPOFont : Failed to fully setup character ^ : Failed to create texture because of invalid parameters.

Texture has out of range width / height

I suspect the issue will be that all textures _must_ have dimensions that are "power of 2". It's a requirement of Unity engine. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_of_two#Table_of_values

However, the typeface available on Transport Medium - PO Font Pack + Prop is he correct one. They are different.

I hate to point this out but this is not the type face used on UK signs. Please see link. https://www.roads.org.uk/fonts
