It's really impressive for what it is.

I tried it various pens and paper sizes and printer scales. And it suddenly worked but only if scanned at low res (200DPI).

Still I got a partially working font at the end

For sure! I was so surprised to see that this was done all in browser. I mean there’s no reason that shouldn’t be possible in 2026 considering there’s services that do this server side, but still it’s always impressive when something like this comes along.
