Hi,

We are using POWERVR SDK 2.05.25.0804 OpenGL ES 2.0 version, and we need to change the font.
We followed https://www.imgtec.com/blog/powervr-developers/customizing-the-print3d-function-in-the-pvrtools-package blog, but we are not able to use the class m_Print3D.SetTextures as mentioned in the blog, (may be due to version mismatch) .
We are getting error like "error: no matching function for call to 'CPVRTPrint3D::SetTextures(int, const void*, int, int, bool&)"
How can I change font styles in POWERVR SDK 2.05.25.0804 OpenGL ES 2.0 ??
Please help.

The 2.5 SDK is very old and is no longer supported by our team. If you are starting a new project, I would recommend moving to the PVRUIRenderer framework in our latest SDK:
https://github.com/powervr-graphics/Native_SDK/tree/4.1
If you would prefer to use Print3D, then I would recommend using the 3.5 SDK:
https://github.com/powervr-graphics/Native_SDK/tree/3.5

As the 3.5 SDK is much more recent, it will be significantly easier for us to support than v2.5.

Hi Joe,
Thanks for your replay.

We had already done implementation with POWERVR SDK 2.05.25.0804.
We need to change the font only is the requirement with the latest SDK updates I think, the remaining requirements is met with the existing SDK itself. So is there any way to integrate the custom font reading functionality with our existing one ? If any such options are there, It will be great helpful to us…

Hi Arun,

Our SDK source code includes Doxygen function descriptions. I would recommend comparing the descriptions to understand how the function changed between the two releases.
