You can use custom fonts with the GFX library but only 7 bit ASCII, for all others you need to do modifications on the GFX library. On the link (Using Fonts | Adafruit GFX Graphics Library | Adafruit Learning System) is an example of how to add new fonts in the GFX library and use it with the library.

Soldered Support:

I agree, but that’s only the GFX’s limitation. The whole Inkplate lib is based on Adafruit GFX. The workaround is to make a custom font in ASCII with your characters - how does that sound?

Soldered Support:

Let us know if you do that, we could make some examples around it, it might be useful for others as well :slight_smile:
