About

This web based tool renders and exports text (currently from SVG format) intended for CNC machines like pen plotters or laser engravers. These machines require a different single-line font type than the more commonly used outline fonts (eg. TTF/OTF) which are mainly intended for screens and printing. More on this topic in this article. This tool is an attempt to create a browser based alternative to the excellent Hershey Text Extension for Inkscape by Evil Mad Scientist. It has a simplified interface and doesn't require installation. On the downside, this tools feature set is currently more limited. Single-Line Font Renderer is the open-source project jvolker/single-line-font-renderer (https://github.com/jvolker/single-line-font-renderer) by jvolker, released under MIT. Ion packages it unmodified from commit 26a206672dd1, adding only a manifest, an icon and a storage compatibility script.
