Signwriter

The Signwriter module allows you to use TrueType fonts to replace text in headings, blocks, menus and filtered text. It does this by replacing text with an image generated from a TrueType font file which you provide. Note: Signwriter requires the GD library to function.

Signwriter has a number of features:

• Multiple profiles allow you to have different settings for different headings.
• Profiles can provide input filters to replace text matching a regular expression.
• Images generated can be transparent or opaque.
• Text can be positioned within a background image.
• Text can be left, right, or center aligned.
• Font size can be automatically reduced to fit the text within a specified maximum width.
• Images are cached to improve performance under high load.
• Generated images can be gif, png, jpeg, or bmp.
• Themes can use profiles configured by a user, or create their own.
• To fit text within a maximum width you can select to display multiple lines instead of reducing font size.
• Drop shadows can be added to the text.

Documentation and examples are available on the Signwriter documentation page.
