The zipped folder contains the filter plugin and associated joined-up fonts. You only need to install the fonts if you do not have the ones that came with the previous version 2.13 update. Fonts before version 2.13 will not now work with this filter.

Download and install the plugin to your plugin folder. Install the fonts, if needed, into your gimp fonts folder. I would remove any old plugin and old fonts from their user folders. I have added 213 to the font names for ease of copying over but this will not appear in their names in your font dialogs within Gimp if you want to use this version.

Here are two links to two solutions that work well when using long dialog boxes, like the one with this filter, with your python plugins Other solutions are available:

Version 2.15 adds the following new options to the filter:
User control over the opacity of the letter layers
Rotation of the letters in the text
Add jitter to the rotation to add a random element to the amount of rotation

The new options are highlighted here in the screenshot below:



The new options when used together can produce some interesting effects - rather like using letters cut out of coloured tissue paper and laid on top of one another.

Here is an example of the effect - no other filters have been used on the letter layers...



The next post illustrates the options applied one at a time.

Example 1: Text rotated to 0 degrees - no jitter or layer opacity changes.



Example 2: Text rotated to 0 degrees with layer opacity set to 75% - no jitter applied
Further layers added with the same settings but each rotation increased each time by 5 degrees



Example 3: Text rotated to 0 degrees with layer opacity set to 60% - jitter applied with jitter range set to 40 (i.e. rotation altered randomly by +/- 20 degrees)
Further layers added with the same settings applied



Edited 03/02/18:corrected typo.

Example 4:
Text rotated to 0 degrees with layer opacity set to 60%.
Jitter applied with jitter range set to 40 (i.e. rotation altered randomly by +/- 20 degrees).
Letter spacing set to -50.

Further layers added with the same settings applied.



Example 5:
Text rotated to 0 degrees with layer opacity set to 60%.
Jitter applied with jitter range set to 40 (i.e. rotation altered randomly by +/- 20 degrees).
Letter spacing set to -100.

Further layers added with the same settings applied.



Have fun...
