Thing-a-Day 2011 #23 - SVG Output for Hershey fonts in JavaScript

This post used to be on Posterous. I rescued my posts before Posterous shut down and am now sharing them here.

I really wanted to get SVG manipulation going in this demo, so I have ported the rendering (once again), this time using the jQuery SVG lib, which is really nice and easy to use: http://keith-wood.name/svg.html

Screenshot of web interface with text area and rendered text in Hershey script font above a sticky note background. Text reads: Hello there, peeps. This looks okay! Woo! What is up? Check it out, it even still resizes correctly! Boosh!
You can play with it here: http://schmarty.net/hershey_js_demo/index.html
