Calculate the cap height of any font loaded with Web Font Loader. See the demo on CodePen. The cap height is the height of a capital letter measured from the baseline. Read more on Typography Deconstructed and on Wikipedia. The web lacks exquisite typography. Of course, its state is very good with the wide use of @font-face and the quality web font distribution services and foundries. However, setting type on the web still challenging. Several attempts and tools have risen in order to define a proper vertical rhythm and a baseline grid. But most of them depend on a cap height ratio, which varies for every typeface and cannot be calculated with CSS. You have to rely on design software or font metrics from the foundries to find this out. This package addresses this issue by rendering loaded fonts on a canvas to measure the actual height of the glyphs, and thus calculating the cap-height/font-size ratio. Then you could easily apply this value to any tool you like.

QUESTION

How to make custom svg font glyphs?

Asked 2021-Apr-18 at 18:02

I'm trying to make an svg font for the unicode braille range. I want the black dots to be filled dots in (#fontcolor), and the non-dots to be circular lines.

Here is an example of 'filled' and 'hollow' circle paths:

Outer circle (Clockwise): 'M cx-or,cy A or,or 1 1 1 cx+or,cy A or,or 1 1 1 cx-or,cy'

Inner circle (Counter-clockwise): 'M cx+ir,cy A ir ir 1 1 0 cx-ir,cy A ir,ir 1 1 0 cx+ir,cy'

where cx,cy - center point coordinates, ir - inner radius, or - outer radius

Filled circle is outer only, hollow is a combination of both inner and outer.

This is how I would do it: I would save the glyphs as symbols. Please observe that the symbols have a viewBox attribute. This is allowing me to resize the glyphs as needed.

Also I've transformed the paths transform="scale(1,-1) translate(0,-1700)".

Thank you very much to @MoshFeu for this comment:

It should be rotated like this:i.stack.imgur.com/oC6qn.png – Mosh Feu

I'm saving the symbols in an svg element with width="0" height="0" and position:absolute;. This way the svg element with the definitions is not interfering in the layout. Now you can use the glyphs with a element giving them the size and the position you need:
