The OTF font format keep the cubic BГЁzier splines better than the TTF font (conversion to quadratic splines). For my own stickfonts I had to explored different methods for creating them and have now found that OTF font type is optimal for this. I tried the remove duplicate lines extension with my own stickfonts and the Cambam stickfonts to remove the duplication.

The problem with the stickfonts is that each glyph have a duplication. A stickfont have closed paths and zero with and might look like a single line font. TTF and OTF fonts can only contain closed paths. IвЂ™ve been working quite a lot with single line fonts. IвЂ™m not ure if this will be useful, but I just could not resist trying to make the option available. Interpolating control points of the removed and remaining line segment. The next example is the same as above with an interpolation between the matches before removing the match. And finally the central hexagon find another match to remove from the last path, the upeer left hexagon. The next path is the upper right hexagon, finding and removing a match in the next and central hexagon. The first path is the hexacon where all sides remain, removing a segment of the two hexagons above it. The resulting black paths is lacking where the pink original is visible. For better visualize how the extension operates I will let the hexagons have some distance and I will leave the original path in pink with a duplicate in black on top to show the original and the result for comparison. Cutting or plotting this paths will cause all but the outer edges to cut or plot twize. Examples Hexagon patternДЄ hexagon pattern can easily be created in Inkscape drawing hexagons and then snapping these shapes together. The dialog box for the extension and the options available to remove duplicate line segements. NB4: All shape elements have to be converted to path, else they will be ignored (you will get a warning). NB3: The extension ignores grouped paths. This is because the average of each pair of controlpoints replace the original controlpoints i.e. NB2: Interpolation might cause a rough or slight deformation compared to the original paths. NB: If the tolerance is larger than the length of the some line segments and the option to include matches where a path is overlapping itself might cause finding a match between neighboring small segments. Optionally interpolate the remaining line segment with the removed line segment.Using snapping will most often cause some discrepancy. What looks like a exact match will often be slightly different when regarding all decimals.

Adding a tolerance to allow for some discrepancies and still regard it a match.

Include searching for matching segments where one continuous path is overlapping itself.

There are three additional options to select: Identical line segments will always be removed, that is when all four control points are the exact same independent of direction (a reversed match is also a match). All four control points of the cubic bezier curves are compared after converting the paths to cubic super path. The extension compare all line segments (between nodes).

(Scroll down to bottom of this post to find the download links). So I wanted to give it a try and write that extension. Others have provided Inkscape extensions to remove duplicate lines, but so far IвЂ™ve not found any that accept a user defined tolerance for the matching of segments allowing for inaccuracies f.x. This might be problematic as the cutter will trace that path twize and might mess up the product or, if used as a plotter, spill the ink. Sometimes there might be duplicate line segments. I recentIy published an Inkscape extension to remove duplicate nodes that is useful when preparing designs for my cutting machine.
