# Glyphs,
\n## A Lightweight Spigot plugin to create glyphs using a resource pack by Misieur<\/p>\n
## How to create new glyphs
\nTo create new glyphs, you first want to find the `glyphs.yml` file in the plugin folder and open it.
\nYou can create new glyphs by adding a new entry and adding the required fields.
\nHere is an example of a glyph configuration:
\n“`yaml
\nexample_glyph:
\n image_path: “font\/example_image” # the .png is not required
\n height: 8
\n ascent: 7
\n“`
\nThen you can put your image in the `textures` folder with the same path as specified in the `image_path` field.
\nYou can now use the `\/glyphs reload` command to rebuild the resource pack.<\/p>\n
## How to use glyphs in-game
\nYou first need to make sure your players have the resource pack installed on their clients.
\nOnce this is done, there are multiple ways to use glyphs in your server.
\nThe way this plugin works is that instead of using static Unicode characters, it uses translations, this makes, so the client knows which glyph is which character instead of mapping them server side.<\/p>\n

\nUsing minecraft commands
\nYou can use the `\/tellraw` command to send glyphs to players.
\nHere is an example of how to send a glyph using the `tellraw` command:
\n“`java
\n\/tellraw @p {“translate”:”glyph.example_glyph”}
\n“`<\/p>\n

\nUsing the minimessage format
\nFor plugins that support the minimessage format, you can use the following syntax to display glyphs:
\n###### (no fallback)
\n“`html
\n
\n“`html

\n## Support<\/p>\n
\n## Additional information<\/p>\n
\n### Ranks
\nTo display glyph ranks using the TAB plugin, you have to create a luckperms group and edit the `plugins\/TAB\/groups.yml` file to add the following configuration:
\n“`yaml
\ngroup_name:
\n tabprefix: “
\n“`<\/p>\n
\n### Offsets
\nTo use text offsets, you can use `offsets.number` with any number between _from_ and _to_ from the `config.yml` file (-1023 to 1024 by default).<\/p>\n
\n“`java
\n\/tellraw @p {“translate”:”offsets.51″}
\n“`
\n“`html
