Typst Importer

Changelog

Update dependencies. Full Changelog: https://github.com/kolibril13/blender_typst_importer/compare/v0.1.13...v0.1.14

Changelog

v0.1.13

• Better release workflow
• New tutorial

Changelog

Import every new curve as "n" instead of "Curve" new interface for animation in sthe side panel. Possible to align multiple collections at once. "Shift+F" to align objects

Changelog

another try

Changelog

v0.1.8

• rename "my_opacity" to "opacity"
• Use an emission shader instead of principled bsdf, so that the text is not effected by scene light:

Changelog

v0.1.7

• Change blend_method for transparency. "Dithered" looks more grany, and the new default "Blended" looks smoother.

• update to typst 0.13.1

• Added object indices support with blue numbered labels.

from typst_importer.typst_to_svg import typst_express

content = "$ a = b + c $" 
c = typst_express(content, origin_to_char=True, show_indices=True, 
position=(0, 2, 0), name="Simple")

content = "$ limits(integral)_a^b f(x) dif x $" 
c = typst_express(content, origin_to_char=True, show_indices=True, 
name="Integral")

Changelog

Update to typst 0.13 https://typst.app/blog/2025/typst-0.13/

Changelog

v 0.1.4

• new position argument:

• add "Allign Object" operator. Keyboard shortcut j, or "Object -> Allign Object (XY)"

• add "Allign Collection". Keyboard shortcut l, or "Object -> Allign Collection (XY)"

typst_express(
    "hi",
    name="Example",
    position=(2, 2, 0),  # Place 2 units to the right
)

• Extra: Here's a snippet to position equation:

from typst_importer.typst_to_svg import typst_express
def eq(equation: str, name: str, color: str, position=(0, 0, 0)):

    typst_code = f"""
    #set text({color})
    $ {equation} $
    """
    collection = typst_express(
        typst_code,
        origin_to_char=True,
        convert_to_mesh=True,
        name=name,
        position=position
    )

    return collection


eq("a -b = c", "Start", "aqua", (0, -4, 0.5))
eq("a - 3 r_(beta) = c", "End", "olive", (0, -4, 0));

Changelog

add lxml dependency

Changelog

• new function: convert from curve to mesh : convert_to_mesh

c = typst_express("$ . . . $", scale_factor=100, origin_to_char=False, convert_to_mesh=True)

• Better handeling of materials. (see https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/issues/134451)
• Every element has now a default "opacity" property

Changelog

v 0.1.1

• add new function: c.processed_svg

from typst_importer.typst_to_svg import typst_express
from typst_importer.notebook_utils import display_svg
c = typst_express("""
#set math.lr(size: 80%)
$ integral.triple _V (nabla dot accent(F, arrow)) dif V = integral.surf_(partial V)  (accent(F, arrow) dot accent(n, arrow)) dif A $
"""
)
display_svg(c.processed_svg, width="400px")

• New docs at: https://kolibril13.github.io/bpy-gallery/n2typst_examples/
• new thumbnail

Changelog

v 0.1.0

New Features

• Added customizable scaling and positioning options to typst_express:
  • scale_factor: Control the size of the rendered output (default: 100.0)
  • origin_to_char: Option to adjust origin point relative to characters (default: False)

def typst_express(
    content: str,
    name: str = "typst_expr",
    header: str = "",
    scale_factor: float = 100.0,
    origin_to_char: bool = False
)

For example

from typst_importer.typst_to_svg import typst_express
typst_express("$ a = b/d $" , scale_factor=200, origin_to_char=True)

• get_curve_collection_bounds will get the deminsons of a collection, e.g.

from typst_importer.typst_to_svg import typst_express
from typst_importer.curve_utils import get_curve_collection_bounds
c = typst_express("$ a = b/d$", scale_factor=100, origin_to_char=False)
min_p, max_p = get_curve_collection_bounds(c)
print(min_p, max_p)
# out <Vector (0.0249, -0.2190, 0.0000)> <Vector (1.4839, 0.5474, 0.0000)>

• shift_scene_content will shift all scene_content to a new position except the given collection c.

from typst_importer.typst_to_svg import typst_express
from typst_importer.curve_utils import shift_scene_content

c = typst_express("$ a = b/d$", scale_factor=100, origin_to_char=False)
shift_scene_content(c)  

Improvements

• Enhanced SVG preprocessing pipeline:
  • flatten_svg will flatten the SVG structure fist
  • stroke_to_filled_path will convert all strokes to paths.

Before <-> After:

from typst_importer.svg_preprocessing import  flatten_svg, stroke_to_filled_path
svg_content = open("test.svg").read()
svg_content = flatten_svg(svg_content)
svg_content = stroke_to_filled_path(svg_content)

open("test_filled.svg", "w").write(svg_content)

or combined as preprocess_svg

from typst_importer.svg_preprocessing import preprocess_svg
svg_content = open("test.svg").read()
svg_content = preprocess_svg(svg_content)
open("test_filled.svg", "w").write(svg_content)

Developer Tools

• Added new notebook utilities for easier development and testing:
  • display_svg function to display svgs in Jupyter.

from typst_importer.notebook_utils import display_svg
display_svg(step1_content , width='500px')

Changelog

• new:from typst_importer.typst_to_svg import typst_express
• new: from typst_importer.typst_to_svg import typst_to_blender_curves
• Improved support for code blocks, addressing issues in the SVG algorithm
• Enhanced documentation
• Experimentation with Greace Pencil Curve
• Debugging notebook

for more, see https://github.com/kolibril13/blender_typst_importer/pull/4

Changelog

• add support for both .typ and .txt
• Add Color support for Typst Equations (https://github.com/kolibril13/blender_typst_importer/pull/2)
• Better handeling for strokes, e.g. in an equation like a/b.
