# This file is used to export text one character at a time from Blender
# To use it, you must change:
# 1. Line 55 - The folder path to path=[drive]:\\YourFolder\\YourSubFolder (don't forget Python uses double backslash \\ for direcrtory separator)
#    example: D:\\3D\\BlenderCharacters
# 2. Line 58 - The text to export each character to its own file. Set chars = "YOUR TEXT"
# 3. Line 23 - Change the font path to a font you have (It is on my to do list to learn how to build Add On GUI's)
