Impressive!

Doesn't work in iPhone, sadly. Not sure why not, because Canvas is supported, I think.

Might be possible to make text selectable, but looks like a huge chore: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1451635/how-to-make-canva...




Older versions of Webkit canvas don’t do text I don’t think. Not totally sure.


I use the new Canvas Text API, which---I guess---isn't supported by the iPhone. It would be fairly straightforward to make it use the old text API. I chose canvas as an output format for this demonstration, the algorithm itself knows nothing of canvas, so it could be adapted to use whatever output format is suitable for a device.
