MetaStroke Example

Red means error - comparison between Native stroking algorithm and my homebrew MetaStroke enveloper (part of my ongoing PhD). Note the minimal number of Bezier points used and how carefully the handles of extremes are placed. My engine keeps always the same number of points, regardless of pen parameters, so it produces a MM ready outlines.

Test driving it I was able to make 170 calligraphically correct (no flip/rotate) ornaments in two days – LoveHearts ornamental typeface http://myfonts.us/STgQ0s
