A student asks me a question about #optimisation and #nesting so i'm back into "16 Case stories, re-imagining the practice of layout" with @colm @Femke @Ludi #OpenSourcePublishing
Published in 2012
"a catalogue put together as part of an attempt to rethink #layout tools, and features case stories that range from historical to present, on to the imaginary and speculative. The ‘camera-ready copy’ of this book was created on a pen #plotter: this has required a rethinking of the workflow, including a special font stack built upon engraving tools, to be able to use stroke based fonts."
Tools: #ActiveArchives, #LibreOffice, #Inkscape, Custom #Herschey Inkscape plugin, #Roland pen plotter, laser printer, glue and scissors. Printing: Risograph and Roland Pen Plotter.

Der Penzlograf von Dominik Mahnič - ein Grafikplotter für Pinsel & Farbe.
Eigens zur diesjährigen Werkwoche des Dresdner Medienkunstkollektivs Metaknoten hat der slowenische Künstler ein DIY-Kit entwickelt und teilt es mit uns in seinem Workshop am Freitag dem 16.05. in der Veränderbar Dresden.

This is not a review of Plotter as a notebook system 🤣 #blogged #plotter https://zerokspot.com/weblog/2025/05/05/not-a-plotter-review/

Was given a Radio Shack CGP-115 plotter last night. It works! Sourcing pens will be ... fun, though

Weekly family meeting is starting and this week I chose a sweet positive thinking washi tape from Everyday Explorer Co, a Kaweco ART Sport in Coffee & Milk inked with a unknown black cartridge, outfitted with a Nibgrinder (Mark Bacas) Blade Turk grind. The little things that make planning enjoyable. #penaddict #FountainPen #kawecosport #plotter #weeklyplanning #washitape

Musste gerade ein Video zu Vintage Computing von @verge pausieren, weil darin diese tolle Plotter-Kunst vorkommt. Kurze Recherche: Das is von @paulrickards und er hat einen aktuellen Blogpost über seine große Plotter-Sammlung geschrieben: https://biosrhythm.com/?p=3004

Teilt mehr Kunst auf Mastodon.

That Brother laser printer you bought can also pretend it's a plotter

Model workshop today, working on housing for my b&g vulcan 7" plotter that I bought used last year. I place it on the roof top for best visibility, and the housing will protect it from saltwater spray ect, and all cabeling will be hidden and protected as well.

Next step is building the actial housing, and install the kit.

@raphael
I guess the closed contours of an SVG font is normal. I thought again about the process of Relief Single Line font where they make a simple search/replace to reopen the contours. → <https://github.com/isdat-type/Relief-SingleLine>

I added this search/replace in the script. Now we can have proper stroke fonts for #Hershey text in @inkscape for #plotter or #embroidery. :)

I will stop spamming here and get back to "real work".

J'essaye de créer mes propres scripts #python :python: pour transformer des images bitmap en tracés vectoriels SVG pour pouvoir ensuite les envoyer a mon plotter de dessin.
