Super cool project. Requires some ui tweaks.

Some fonts exhibit over spacing in between of words.

saurabhdaware commented 4 years ago

Thank you @abhijithvijayan, That's a great suggestion but we can currently download fonts from google fonts and upload them with the upload button.

and about the word-spacing, it can be adjusted with the letter spacing and word spacing option in the tool.

I am closing this for now, let me know if you have any other thoughts.

Thank you!

I had issues with spacing issues with fonts from other sites.

Word spacing didnt change a thing anyway.

saurabhdaware commented 4 years ago

Yes, there are some font spacing issues in the html2canvas library that we use and thus as a workaround, we have letter-spacing and word-spacing option. Though it doesn't output the exact same results as the input, adjusting these values can give readable results.

This is the output of indieflower when I tried, indieflower output in tool

If letter-spacing and word-spacing are not working for you, can you tell which browser you're trying on?

It's not these 2 fonts that exhibit the issue.

As I suggested before, those 2 work very well. A couple of handwriting fonts I tried from other sites had those issues.

Will try to attach those sometime later.
