I've put together a simple text module for OpenSCAD which draws letters using the simple lettering style of technical drawings. I got about halfway done when I realized there are other, better solutions for text. But I decided to finish it anyway, and make it available in case it proves helpful to anyone. This is my first OpenSCAD project, so I expect there will be mistakes in style and format, if not functionality. Feedback welcome. The module can be found here: https://github.com/thestumbler/alpha -Chris Lott Seoul, South Korea -- View this message in context: http://forum.openscad.org/ALPHA-New-Text-Module-Based-on-Technical-Lettering-Style-tp11310.html Sent from the OpenSCAD mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

The non-commencial licensing is a major issue in terms of software freedom.

Even though I appreciate the typographical effort and I'll surelly read your routines since I share the enthusiasm in the usage of OpenSCAD in this field of computer graphics.
