Hello, I currently have the problem that I need to layout a text along a path using Java2d.
The input basically is a String, a Font, a color and a GeneralPath containing a single linestring describing the desired layout path, and the desired output is a Shape (or an array of shapes) containing the fully layouted shapes for the glyphs. I already tried org/apache/batik/ext/awt/font/TextPathLayout as I found hints pointing to this by googling. It is a rather self-contained code (only pulls in single other Class), but it seems to give rather funny results. Is it feasible to use the org/apache/batik/gvt/text/GlyphLayout class? I tried to play with it a little, but got rather confused by all the other code that gets pulled in, and especially with the meaning of the "int [] charMap" parameter. Does anybody know another, more self-contained solution for this problem? (We prefer copy-lefted, but "free linking" licenses like the LGPL.) If you know a better point where to discuss this problem, please feel free to redirect me.
