While that happens...
Regardless Erwin,
I very much appreciate whenever you help me out.
Thanks

Erwin, I don't think I understand your question. I haven't made another single line font that works, however, I have a few single line fonts (from other sources) that have open contours. The kind of single line font that doesn't connect the start point to the end point. In regards to your parting st...

Hello, I've been hard at work making a single-line font with this program (see Ex1 in attachments) . But every time I export as .Otf for use as an .SVG font for the Hersheytext extension in inkscape, the contours remain closed leading to the glyphs looking like Ex 2 (see attachments). To my knowledg...

Regarding this forum post: http://forum.high-logic.com/viewtopic.php?t=1648 "...I might add a setting that forces FontCreator to not close the contour and maybe give the line a thickness, so it better represents the output that you get when the font is used with a CNC or engraving machine."...

It was selected on .Woff export settings (my main form of export) not .ttf, my apologies I slipped up.
Thanks for your help with this!

I can toggle open contour on the original glyph, but not on the pasted one. I have open contours selected in options and set to singlestroke in export settings. Is it possible the contour forgets it is open contour during the paste? Also, more single line support would bless my soul, though I apprec...

Hello again, Thanks for your response. So Is it just appearing that way as a visual glitch when previewing on windows? Do we just rely that the program we want to use will support single stroke and remove the line already? Additionally, remove overlap did speed it up so thank you very much. Lastly, ...

Hello, I'm making a single stroke open type font with your awesome program. I find it easy to draw strokes though I lack much knowledge on font making as a whole. That's why I have a couple of questions for you. For context, I used the website 'Calligraphr' to create a font that gives each character...

Single stroke connects my first and last points.
Double stroke works but it tells my plotter to plot vectors twice.
Do u think there could be any other setting I'm overlooking?
Many thanks,
Danny

Here is a very basic sample project that shows what can be accomplished. It only comes with digits zero and one. Font Project - SingleDeluxe.fcp And an online single line color font demo page: Online Web Font Test Page SingleDeluxe.png Note 1: The font contains the SVG color format, as SVG does sup...

Thank you Erwin! This all certainly looks helpful. I'm mostly looking to use it with Axidraw Merge and Hershey text in Inkscape.
I'll keep you updated with my results

Hello, It's come to my knowledge that this program has everything that I've been looking for in order to create a single line font based on handwriting that contains variations of different styles per glyph in SVG format and single line. However, I'm very new to this space and don't really know what...
