How to Make Custom Characters for Led Matrix

It Is So Simple To Make Our Own Custom Characters In Led Matrix For That
We Can Use A Simple App Called Pixel To Matrix
By Using This App Everyone Can Make There Own Custom Characters In Led Matrix
From There Own Imagination................ Isnt It Cool
Check This Instructable :) ;)
How to Control Led Matrix to Arduino
How To Control Led Matrix Using Arduino :--
Check This Video & Instructable If You Are Not Familier With The Connection Of Led Matrix With Arduino
https://www.instructables.com/id/Arduino-Led-Matri...
Do Not Bother About These much Steps These I Have Done To Make Everything More Clear To You
Go & Proceed With The Next Step :) ;) ..........
Download the Files

Downloaded These Files ..........
Pixel To Matrix Application :-- http://www.mediafire.com/file/61o1hbqss52ksyt/Pixe...
Code :-- http://www.mediafire.com/file/23n440p13tat3th/LCDe...

Need To Extract the Pixel To Matrix App

Open The Extracted File ........

This Is The Pixel To Matrix App
The App Is Same As That Of 8*8 Led Matrix
Which Has 8 Rows & 8 Columns

Click On The Squares To Make Patterns .....

Then Click The Generate Button To Get The Code .........

This Is The Arduino Code For Led Matrix

Copy The Code ........

Open The Notepad To Paste The Code ....

Paste The Code Here ......

Click To Make The Patterns .......

Copy The Code ...........

Again Paste The Code On The Notepad ..........

Continue Making The Patterns In The App And Copy The Code

Paste The Code In Notepad Till Your Wish To Display The Patterns Which Was Made In The Pixel To Matrix App

Then Open The Arduino Code ........

Delete These Lines ..........

Then Type byte a[8]= {

Then Type byte b[8]= {

Type Till byte j[8]= {
I Have j Lines In My Notepad Code
So That I Have Made It To byte j[8]= {

Then Open The Notepad & Copy The First Line Of Code
& Paste The Code In The Arduino Code
After Copying The Code Need To Type };

Paste The Lines Upto byte j[8]= {
From The Notepad

Delete These Lines In The Code ........

Then Type
printByte (a);
delay(1000);

Type Lines Upto ,
printByte (j);
delay(1000);
Beacuse Iam Having J Lines In The Notepad ...........
If U Have More Than J Lines You Can Type Upto That Line Or Vice Versa .........

Type } At The End Of The Line ............

After That Click Verify ....
To Check For Any Errors Or Mistakes ......
