Keyring Tag, custom text, auto letter spacing

Yet another keyring tag generator, but this one sorts out the letter spacing for you. No need to spend ages tweaking character spacing to make something that doesn't have gaps.

 

Unlike other models that require you to adjust the letter spacing yourself, this model has no limit on the number of letters in your tag, you can have as many as your printer can handle.

 

By default, capital letters are the thickest, and then lower-case letters alternate in height to make the text easier to read. You can adjust how thick/tall each letter type is. Spaces are omitted from the output, but they are still counted as letters for the lower-case alternating height calculations. 

How to Use

Click on the green “Customize” button above. Then type in your text, adjust the other settings if needed, and download for printing. Quick and easy!

Font Options

• Chewy - narrow and rounded, marker-pen look.
• Poetsen One - smart, semi-italic.
• Coiny - wide and very rounded.
• Gorditas - chunky with serifs, and hearts for dots on “i” and “j”.
• SpicyRice - curly and distinctive.
• Anton - blocky, like the “Impact” font.

To save time deciding which font you like, all font options are generated at once. Deselect the ones you don't want to download.

 

More fonts can be added: let me know what you'd like (any Google-provided font is possible, it seems).

Supported Characters

The code supports all ASCII letters and numbers, common accented characters (e.g. ä, é, è, ê, ë, ü…) and some other characters (!, #, &, @, ÷, ×, -, ~, £, $, €). If you find a character you'd like to use that doesn't work yet, let me know in the comments below.

How it Works

• The widths of each letter are calculated from the font data.
• Every letter, in each font, has a width correction applied, so the letters overlap just the right amount.
• Some letter pairs have an additional spacing correction applied.
• Space for the attachment to the keyring attachment ring is also adjusted for each letter.
• Letters like “i”, “j”, “é”, “ä” have additional support added to attach the dots or accents.

Problems?

This model is being continuously improved. Come back soon for more font options and more supported characters.

Acknowledgements

This model was inspired by Hayden Kong's original Custom Name Keyring model, coupled with a need to design keyrings for many names in a short period of time.
