Post by: frozen on December 26, 2014, 03:45:40 am

tk2d is good, but it not support for ttf format text.

So I use some other asset (like easyfont ,DynamicText) to do that.

You will need to use a "normal" shader, eg. like the tk2d shader or normal unity shader instead of the "text" shader in unity. I can't advise on how other assets work though, but as long as you're using a normal shader you should be fine.

Its outside the scope of the toolkit, its a substantial amount of work - tk2d's focus is 2D games not UI, UI is just a bonus feature.
