### ** `qmk painter-convert-font` **
This command converts a TTF font to a QFF File Format.
**Usage**:
```
usage: qmk painter-convert-font [-h] [-w] [-u UNICODE_GLYPHS] [-s SIZE] [-o OUTPUT] [-i INPUT] -f FORMAT
[-r] [-n] [-a]
options:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-w, --raw Writes out the QFF file as raw data instead of c/h combo.
-u UNICODE_GLYPHS, --unicode-glyphs UNICODE_GLYPHS
Also generate the specified unicode glyphs.
-s SIZE, --size SIZE Specify font size. Default 12.
-o OUTPUT, --output OUTPUT
Specify output directory. Defaults to same directory as input.
-i INPUT, --input INPUT
Specify input font file.
-f FORMAT, --format FORMAT
Output format, valid types: rgb888, rgb565, pal256, pal16, pal4, pal2, mono256,
mono16, mono4, mono2
-r, --no-rle Disable the use of RLE to minimise converted image size.
-n, --no-ascii Disables output of the full ASCII character set (0x20..0x7E), exporting only the
glyphs specified.
-a, --no-aa Disable anti-aliasing on fonts.
```
**Examples**:
```
$ qmk painter-convert-font -i /usr/share/fonts/some_font/SomeFont.ttf -f mono4 --size 11 -o /home/qmk/qmk_firmware/my_keeb/generated
