Text sign generator

Generate a text sign — outlined letters on a plate, sized to the words, with an optional keyring lug

A nameplate or keychain measured around your words from the real glyph outlines, not guessed from the letter count — type a longer name and the plate grows with it. The outline width is what makes letters printable: it grows each shape outward until thin type becomes a bold sign, and in outline-only mode it is what holds the word together. Sans Bold survives small text where a light face loses its stems at a 0.4 mm nozzle. Download a print-ready STL or 3MF.
