Extrude

Filter → Extrude will create a solid shadow offset for the shape of the glyph. The following parameters are configurable:
- Offset
Controls the length of the shadow in font units.
- Angle
The direction of the extrusion in counterclockwise degrees from a right horizontal stretch.
- Don’t Subtract
By default, the original shape will be subtracted from the extruded shape. Suppress such a subtraction by enabling this option.
From left to right:
1 normal glyph
2 standard extrude
3 composition of 1 and 2
4 Don’t subtract enabled
The custom parameter rule is as follows:
Extrude; Offset; Angle; Don’t Subtract
For example, to offset by 100 units at an angle of −30 degrees:
Extrude; 100; -30
Don’t Subtract is disabled by default.
Enable the option by setting its value to 1:
Extrude; 100; -30; 1
