HersheyFont: An HTML repository from ffd8

"The Hershey fonts are a collection of vector fonts developed circa 1967 by Dr. A. V. Hershey at the Naval Weapons Laboratory.[1][2] The fonts are publicly available and have few restrictions.[3] Vector fonts are easily scaled and rotated in two or three dimensions; consequently the Hershey fonts have been widely used in computer graphics and computer-aided design programs."

We developed this Library for drawing typography on drawbots in mind. The basic problem with common typography on drawbots is the filling pattern. Otherwise only the outlines are drawn.

##HersheyFont Library Features:

Drawing line fonts in Processing
Create PShape from string
Export SVG via P8gGraphicsSVG

##Source Code: https://github.com/ixd-hof/HersheyFont

#Usage:

Import library

import de.ixdhof.hershey.*;

Initialize and load font

HersheyFont hf = new HersheyFont(this, "cursive.jhf");

Set text size

hf.textSize(100);

Draw text

hf.text("Hello", 0, 0);

Create and draw PShape

PShape ps = hf.getShape("Processing"); shape(ps);

##Example:

import de.ixdhof.hershey.*;

HersheyFont hf;

void setup()
{
size(925, 500, P3D);
hf = new HersheyFont(this, "cursive.jhf");
hf.textSize(100);
}

void draw()
{
background(255);

translate(100, height/3);
hf.text("Hello", 0, 0);
translate(0, height/3);
shape(hf.getShape("Processing"));
}
