This is a free software library to render Ancient Egyptian inscriptions from PHP, using Serge Rosmorduc's HieroTeX.

It allows you to programatically create high-quality SVG images of inscriptions from your web app, through a simple API.

use \Hierotex\Hieroglyph\Inscription;

header("Content-Type: image/svg+xml");
$inscription = new Inscription("i-mn:n-Htp:t*p");
echo $inscription -> toSvg();

Which creates this output:

Image of i-mn:n-Htp:t*p

The encoding of the inscription is MdC.

Requirements

  • PHP 7.1 or newer
