在游戏开发中，为了节省内存，同时方便地管理资源，我们经常要把一堆小图拼接成一张大图及一个数据文件，TexturePacker就是用来干这个的。
它的基本用法很简单：
a.把图片拖到TexturePacker中，或添加文件夹（Add Folder）
b.设置导出路径及格式
c.点击发布（publish）
在它的2.x版的时候，我就开时用它了，但很惭愧，那时用的是破解版，对不住作者了。最初用它的目的是，用它的Pvr Viewer来查看pvr格式的文件内容。3.0版出了以后，功能进一步丰富，支持更多的图版数据格式，自动和产生多套资源，同时作者改变了它的授权方式。

TexturePacker虽然非常优秀，但不是免费的。但作者对于开发人员是非常人道的，你可以去http://www.codeandweb.com/request-free-license申请一个free licenses。要求如下：
Bloggers and framework developers can get free full licenses to my tools.
My requirements to you are:
- You write your own blog
- Your blog has at least 5 recent entries which are at least a page long and not older than 6 months
- Your blog is about game/software/web development or about applications

申请成功后，作者会发送类似于一个这样的邮件给你：

Nice blog! I would be happy to get a (short) blog post in return.
