ImageMagick and browser-based tools such as paperjs use very different engines for font rendering. This makes it difficult to reproduce accurately effects, for example, in video projects where the placement of text, sub-images, etc needs to be tested before production. While paperjs will render a scene in a browser context, it cannot be used in production, where ImageMagick is necessary.

FSM allows for the classification of usable fonts for both these interfaces, accurate measurement of font dimensions such as descender, bearing, and extended bearing, and the means for translating between the differing font description systems used.

This script which requires:
*PHP >= 7.0
*MySQL >= 5.6
*ImageMagick >= 6.9, Imagick for PHP

Paperjs and jquery are bound in via CDN.

This project will eventually be merged with Volpe, a browser-based video mockup editor.
