Training with Arabic Online Handwriting Data

Can you please suggest the modifications that I should apply, so that I can train the given model for Arabic Handwriting sequences. Arabic text is written from right to left, which might be the reason for which this model isnt yielding correct results.
Thanks.
Example arabic online handwriting model is ADAB

Training on own Handwriting POSSIBLE?

Is it possible to train the model on our own handwriting after giving it 10-20 pages of training data? If yes please tell me HOW? Thank you

Making output hair-thin

Is there a way to control the thickness of the text?
I haven't found a parameter for that, but I saw other implementations that did include this option.
any tips on how hard would it be to implement it and where to start?

How to train it on other language's?

Hello 👋 I would like to know if it possible to train a model on other languages like Hebrew, if u can help me with that I will be very happy 😊 THX🙏

Missing some words or random strokes in output images

I generated images for 50 different strings. 20% of them have half sentences or random strokes. I set bias to 1 and thickness to 10 (default). Is there any limit on word count or other variable effecting output image?

Really nice repository, great code

Thank you for writing such an easy to use and implement code. The documentation is fantastic! Appreciate your work a lot!

Dataset

is this project train need all folder file ?
Seem that it is not necessarily!

Issues installing requirement file, torch 1.8.1 version

I've trying to run the project in a virtual environment, but when I try to install the requirements file a couple of errors are shown:

ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement torch==1.8.1 (from versions: 1.11.0, 1.12.0, 1.12.1, 1.13.0)
ERROR: No matching distribution found for torch==1.8.1

not sure if this is something with the packages, the source where they are been fetched or I might missing something.

Handwriting slants up

Thanks for making this project - it's super useful and well documented.

I've noticed that the generated handwriting tends to slant as opposed to being written flat on a line like how https://www.calligrapher.ai/ does it.

Do you have any ideas on how to solve for this?

Reusing the same synthesizer

I am looking for a way to save the created synthesizer and then re-use the same handwriting a few times.
Is it possible? it seems to make sense that it is possible but I am not familiarized enough to know how.
