Super! But what about non-ASCII letters like åäö?

Good point.

(Needless to say, you should use Unicode for this, to include Chinese etc.)

Sure. It's just Java Strings internally, and I think they're UTF-8 by default.

Is it a charset problem or a font problem?


Almost certainly a font problem. Processing handles fonts in a funny way (as little bitmaps - fast but clumsy).

I'm probably planning on implementing this in Java2d when I'm done experimenting, so the font rendering should be a bit sharper (and exporting to vector formats like SVG will be free).

Thanks for trying it.

Tom.
