Abstract
Methods and devices for rendering interactive three-dimensional (3D) fonts may include receiving, at a text platform component executing on a computing device, a request from an application to render text. The methods and devices may include parsing the text to identify at least one glyph in the text. The methods and devices may include accessing a font file that includes a 3D glyph description associated with the at least one glyph and an interaction policy associated with the 3D glyph that determines when and how to animate the 3D glyph. The methods and devices may include rendering at least one 3D glyph based on the 3D glyph description and the interaction policy. The methods and devices may include transmitting at least one rendered 3D glyph.
