| # Type.ai - AI Handwriting to Font Generator | |
| Convert your handwriting into a custom TrueType font file using AI-powered character detection. | |
| ## Features | |
| - **AI Character Detection**: Uses advanced contour analysis and OCR to extract characters | |
| - **Style Analysis**: Captures stroke width, slant, and roughness of your handwriting | |
| - **Vector Conversion**: Converts bitmap characters to smooth vector paths | |
| - **Font Generation**: Creates installable TTF font files | |
| - **Web UI**: Modern drag-and-drop interface | |
| - **REST API**: Integrate into your own applications | |
| ## Quick Start | |
| ### 1. Install Dependencies | |
| ```bash | |
| cd Type.ai | |
| pip install -r requirements.txt | |
| ``` | |
| ### 2. Command Line Usage | |
| ```bash | |
| # Basic usage | |
| python main.py handwriting.jpg --output MyFont.ttf --name "MyHandwriting" | |
| # With debug output | |
| python main.py sample.png -o CustomFont.ttf -n "Custom Font" --debug | |
| ``` | |
| ### 3. Web Interface | |
| ```bash | |
| # Start the server | |
| python server.py | |
| # Open in browser | |
| # http://localhost:8000/ui/ | |
| ``` | |
| ## Tips for Best Results | |
| 1. **Write clearly** with consistent size | |
| 2. **Include all letters** A-Z (uppercase and/or lowercase) | |
| 3. **Use dark ink** on white paper | |
| 4. **Good lighting** - avoid shadows | |
| 5. **High resolution** scan or photo | |
