Road Sign Factory provides traffic engineers, designers, and enthusiasts with a standards-compliant tool for creating professional road signage. It is a web service built and served to meet the modern needs for generating quality designs.
Traditionally, traffic signs are designed by professional engineers as a package of a roadworks project with CAD. While CAD is powerful in generating detailed drawings, characters and symbols must still be drawn carefully block by block, stroke by stroke. Sign making was like a renaissance of old technology Movable Printing Press in modern times. A need to speed up the design process within a tight project timeframe is called. This application is the result of seeking a modern and streamlined workflow for road sign design.
Road Sign Factory is built using modern web technologies including HTML5 Canvas, JavaScript ES6+, and responsive CSS. The application uses the Fabric.js library for advanced canvas manipulation and supports vector graphics export through SVG generation.
The application features an intelligent save system that automatically stores your work in the browser's local storage, preventing data loss. Additionally, manual save and load functionality allows you to manage multiple projects and create backups of your designs.
The export function supports multiple file formats including PNG (raster), SVG (vector), PDF (document), and DXF (CAD). PDF export is handled using the jsPDF library, which converts the canvas content to high-quality PDF documents suitable for printing and sharing. DXF export is powered by the dxf-writer library, enabling seamless integration with professional CAD software and engineering workflows. This allows your traffic sign designs to be easily imported into AutoCAD, SolidWorks, and other industry-standard design tools.
