Fornjot Text

About

Fornjot Text is a library for creating text in Fornjot, a CAD kernel written in Rust.

This currently very much an experiment. Feedback is welcome!

Usage

For now, see the tests. More examples coming soon!

Limitations

• Unlikely to support fonts with nested features (like a zero with a dot in the center).
• Rendering using Fornjot is slow - try exporting to an STL/OBJ/3MF and viewing in another viewer.
• All glyphs are individually normalized to a height of 1 - this should be changed, but I need to learn more about fonts first.

Future

• Support string generation (currently only single glyph at a time)
• Reduce number of vertices used
