v2.04

Fixed

• Fixed issues (including a crash) that could occur loading
  plain text fonts that contained blank lines

v2.0.3

Added

• Added deployment target for .NET 5.0

Fixed

• Fixed a crash which occurred when trying to load a plain text
  font and texture file names contained spaces. Thanks to
  abenedik for the fix
• No longer requires a custom global.json to force an older
  SDK version in order to build the 3.5 target

v2.0.2

Fixed

• Fixed a crash loading text or xml fonts with negative values if the OS culture uses a different sign (#25)

v2.0.1

Fixed

• Fixed an issue if a text based font was missing a named value

v2.0

Added

• Added deployment targets for .NET Framework 3.5, 4.0, 4.5.2,
  4.6.2, 4.6.2, 4.8, .NET Standard 1.3, .NET Standard 2.0, .NET
  Standard 2.1, .NET Core 2.1, .NET Core 2.2, and .NET Core 3.1
• Added support for BMFont version 3 binary fonts
• Added additional constructor to Character struct
• Added X, Y, Width and Height properties to the
  Character class
• Added OffsetX and OffsetY properties to the Character
  class
• Added IsEmpty and static Empty properties to the
  Character class
• Added InvalidChar to the BitmapFont class. If a BMFont
  explicitly defines the "invalid" character, this will be
  assigned to this property, otherwise it will use
  Character.Empty

Changed

• Performance improvements when loading text fonts
• BitmapFont[char] will no longer throw if a character not
  present in the font is requested, instead the value of the
  InvalidChar property will be returned

Deprecated

• The Character.Bounds property has been deprecated and will
  be removed in a future version. The X, Y, Width and
  Height properties should be used instead
• The Character.Offset property has been deprecated and will
  be removed in a future version. The OffsetX and OffsetY
  properties should be used instead

Removed

• Due to switch to SDK projects, the .NET Framework 2.0 target
  the library was originally compiled under is no longer
  available

Fixed

• API documentation is once again included in the NuGet package

v1.3.3

Merge pull request #10 from cyotek/ScottSWu-fix_getkerning

Scottswu fix getkerning

v1.3.1

Includes a fix by @rds1983 preventing a crash if certain fields were missing or invalid in plain text font files

1.3.0 Update

Added

• Added documentation

Removed

• Removed BitmapFont.NormalizeLineBreaks as this method should never have been added

v1.2.0: Various improvements

• NEW: Moved the load code from BitmapFontLoader into the BitmapFont, leaving the original methods as placeholders. This now means you can override BitmapFont.Load if you need to do any custom processing, something you couldn't do with the static method
• NEW: Added new Load methods that supports using a Stream or TextReader to avoid the need for a file
• NEW: Added new LoadText and LoadXml methods that support strings, again therefore no longer requiring a file
• NEW: Minor performance improvements
• FIX: For some inexplicable reason, the XML font loader was loading the XML document twice
