I&#39;ve done something similar using Ruby to convert Inkscape-layers to the glyphs of a SVG font. My earlier post about that got completely ignored, but I believe the both the technique and the application could be interesting for others...?<div>

Another Ruby scripts creates a starting template with a appropiately named layer for every glyph and guides for the font-metrics.</div><div><br></div><div>Groetsels!</div><div><br></div><div>Maarten</div><div><div><br>On Tuesday, July 16, 2013, Jakob Gager  wrote:<br>

similar way.<br>
 From my point of view I would recommend it, especially if you don&#39;t wont to try yourself writing<br>
an inkscape plugin :)<br>
