Let's say you downloaded and installed the Merida TrueType font. Open gimp and create a new image of 1920x160 pixel with transparent background. Using the text-tool: http://docs.gimp.org/en/gimp-tool-text.html -select "chess merida" as font -select 160 as size -write "pnbrqkomvtwl" and you'll see that the appropriate images are created. Then you can save the image as Merida1_160.gif However for a better looking result you may want to save the image as Merida1_160.png (and maybe blur the borders). Bye, Fulvio
