fontmesh

A fast Rust library for converting TrueType font glyphs to 2D and 3D triangle meshes. A faster, pure Rust alternative to ttf2mesh.

Quick Start

use fontmesh::Font;

let font = Font::from_bytes(include_bytes!("font.ttf"))?;

// 2D mesh
let mesh_2d = font.glyph_to_mesh_2d('A')?;

// 3D mesh with custom quality
let mesh_3d = font.glyph_by_char('A')?
    .with_subdivisions(50)
    .to_mesh_3d(5.0)?;

Examples

cargo run --example basic
cargo run --example export_obj
cargo run --example serde --features serde

Performance

fontmesh is 2-3x faster than comparable libraries.
