how to save as a Single Line Font?

30/11/2013 à 02:11

I have made a simple application using which I draw the outline with TTF font. Create a single line outline of the original outline. Now I want to save this outline in one of the single line font formats so that I can use it for marking or engraving.
Here is a link for character 'S' I created using my program.

I have coordinates of each line and curve contained in the red outline. Now I want to save it to one of the readable formats. How to do that?
Please guide me.

Thanks in advance

It's not possible to have a font in True Type format created with a single line.

Thanks for quick reply.

Actually as shown in image I have drawn that character 'S' using 'arial.ttf'.
I want to store the information of lines and curves which make my 'S' character in form some font so that I can use it for marking.
So is it possible to store this information in form of font?

Looks like I was asking question in wrong way...so I will rephrase my question.

I am using Qt for my application. I use QRawFont to access glyph in '.ttf' file for given character. I have coordinates of all bezier curves and lines contained in that glyph.
I am able to draw the glyph outline on canvas,tweak the outline, scale it, offset it. The final result on canvas or say the image on screen can be stored as a png. Now I want to store this data i.e the new values of coordinates of beziers and lines after tweaking outlines, into one of the font formats. So that I can use that as my own font.
So can anyone guide me on this?
I would really appriciate it.

In French.

L'outil a une épaisseur.

Si le tracé de la lettre est plus petit l'outil , il passe une seul fois.
Si le tracé est plus large, l'outil va se décaler pour passer une ou plusieurs autre fois. tout en ce décalant.
