This page describes how we created a simple Hershey font.
Planned procedure:
- Select All (always, unless otherwise said)
- Set stroke Width to 1.5mm
- Set Cap to round (easier to deal with than rectangular probably)
- Verify shapes, smooth some(I fixed $, @, &, 0, O, Q4 and make strokes smaller ($, @).
- Menu Path -> Break apart
- Clean SVG, export as simple SVG.
- Import to illustrator to "simplify", i.e. remove all major overlaps (or is there a way to do it in Inkscape).
- Save as SVG in Illustrator and repopen it in InkScape
- Menu Path -> Stroke to Path
- Remove Fill
- Set Stroke Paint
- Set Stroke Width to 0.1mm
- Group all objects into one glyph group
- Create two subpath
- Verify directions of subpath
- Add rungs
