No longer looking for a decent image creation library I can use in ASP.NET MVC 5, but share if you want to anyway
-
Basically, I want something that can auto-fit text into a specified area, and is installable via NuGet. Ideally, it would be a library that avoids using GDI+ internally, but I know that's not necessarily possible.
Anyone ever use anything suitable?

From the title, I was about to suggest just using GDI+. But I guess not.
-
@mott555 I've used GDI+ for a few images, but it doesn't do automatic text scaling, and I'd prefer not having to work out how to implement it for a system that supports over 20 languages, especially as this new feature I'll be working on eventually is automatic ad banner generation in possibly a dozen or more different sizes, and across potentially dozens of brands.

automatic ad banner generation
If you make it so that it can only ever generate static content without animation, maybe I won't have to kill you…
-
@dkf Two reasons you won't kill me:
- The images will be static
- When I say 'ads', I mean as an optional extra when e.g. booking a flight, so not the sort you'll see on [insert site of choice] ;)

Your life is safe then.

UPDATE: Got some more details about this task, and it turns out I probably won't need an image generation library after all. Which is good, because that means less work for me :D
