디지털 제작 환경을 위한 SVG 기반 상패·트로피 텍스트 자동 레이아웃 기술 연구

The purpose of this study is to design an SVG geometry–based automatic text layout system and to examine its practical applicability in order to address the inefficiency and quality inconsistency of text placement in irregular-shaped trophies and plaques. To this end, a web-based system prototype was implemented by converting SVG boundary paths into polygons and applying scanline-based width analysis combined with font-metric–driven automatic line breaking and font size optimization algorithms. As a research method, a triangulation-based evaluation was conducted involving a domain expert from the trophy and plaque production field, a UX/UI expert, and general users, in order to comprehensively analyze the system’s practical suitability, usability, and text layout quality. The results indicate that the proposed system can stably place text even within irregular shapes, reduce repetitive manual work, and provide substantial improvements in work efficiency for both practitioners and users. In particular, the system maintained readability and visual balance even in asymmetric and curved shapes, which was identified as a key outcome. This study demonstrates that the proposed system has strong potential as an automatic layout tool not only for trophy and plaque production but also for brand signage, panels, and CNC- or laser-cutting–based digital manufacturing environments.
