SVGFonts-1.1: SVGFonts.cabal

Name:             SVGFonts
Version:          1.1
Synopsis:         Fonts from the SVG-Font format
Description:      Native font support for the Diagrams library. The SVG-Font format is easy to parse
                  and was therefore chosen for a font library completely written in Haskell
                  .
                  You can convert your own font to SVG with <http://fontforge.sourceforge.net/> or use the included LinLibertine, Bitstream
                  .
                  Features
                  .
                  * Complete implementation of the features that fontforge produces (but not the complete SVG format):
                  .
                  * Kerning (i.e. the two characters in \"VA\" have a shorter distance than in \"VV\")
                  .
                  * Unicode
                  .
                  * Ligatures
                  .
                  XML speed issues can be solved by trimming the svg file to only those characters that are used (or maybe binary xml one day)
                  . 
                  Version 1.0 of this library supports texturing which would only make sense in a Diagrams Backend that does rasterization in Haskell.
                  .
                  Example:
                  .
                  >  # LANGUAGE NoMonomorphismRestriction #
                  >
                  > import Diagrams.Prelude
                  > import Diagrams.Backend.Cairo.CmdLine
                  > import Graphics.SVGFonts.ReadFont (textSVG)
                  >
                  >
                  > main = defaultMain ( (text' "Hello World") <> (rect 8 1) # alignBL )
                  >
                  > text'  t = stroke (textSVG t 1) # fc purple # fillRule EvenOdd
                  > text'' t = stroke (textSVG_ $ TextOpts t lin INSIDE_H KERN 1 1 ) # fc purple # fillRule EvenOdd
                  .
