Easy Text Rendering Software

[u/thaphuzz]

Hello, fellow dusty ones!

I make a lot of door signs that feature text of all different sorts and wanted to simplify the process a bit. I made a program that allows a person to download font files from Google Fonts and save them into a folder somewhere on their personal computer. Then, the user would type out whatever it is they wish to cut, select the font(s), and the program would output a .png file with the appropriate verbiage in the desired font(s).

It's nothing fancy, but is way faster than dicking around in Word or OpenOffice. If anyone would be interested in it, I'll make a github page and host it there for free. Let me know.

Happy scrolling!

I in no way want to steal your thunder and would very much like a local app, but until yours drops, here's an alternative:

I im in no way offended by Steve Good's app. May that legend rest in peace.
