Converts fonts to TypeScript objects
Project description
TypeScript Font Converter
Converts fonts to TypeScript objects
This library:
- Imports OpenType and TrueType fonts
- Extracts metadata from the naming table
- Extracts a list of glyphs and their unicode character ID
- Encodes the font file as a base64-encoded DataURI
- Saves all this in Python objects
- Serializes the Python Objects in a JSON file
- Exports TypeScript definitions of the objects
But Why?
This library exists to embed fonts into web pages using SSR-frameworks such as Next.js and to more easily gain information about the font.
It was initially part of the ThorType website where I use the TypeScript definition and the corresponding JSON-data to showcase my fonts and save all of that data as part of a static website.
It's released as a Python lib so that the tooling for the ThorType-website is separated and generalised to be reused in any TypeScript or JavaScript web framework.
