File:Biáng (regular script).svg

The 57-stroke character biáng (see Biang biang noodles) in regular script, suitable for brush calligraphy.

Here is how this was created:

• Opened a new photoshop project.
  
• On separate text layers, typed in the elements: "宀八言ㄠㄠ長長馬心月刂辶".
  
• Using Image:Biáng.svg (which is in a Songti font) as a guide, arranged the elements in the correct places, and manipulated them to fit into their spaces correctly.
  
• Exported the image as a very large, detailed bitmap (.png).
  
• Opened the bitmap in Inkscape.
  
• Used Inkscape's "trace bitmap" tool to create a vector image.
  
• Manually removed unnecessary nodes, thus reducing file size dramatically.
  
• Manipulated the nodes to make stroke thickness more uniform (it had been distorted by the manipulation in Photoshop)
  
• Saved as a vector image (.svg) and uploaded to Commons.
  
  Then, User:Yug made a correction.
  
  Then, User:Wikic showed me his http://peng02.free.fr/biang2.png. I vectorized it and uploaded it. It has some advantages.
  
  Then User:Yug improved the last 辶 to show 4 clear strokes as the traditional way needs. The 心 is a little bigger.
  
  Buernia redesigned the glyph with Adobe Illustrator, refer to the glyph of ST Kaiti.
  
  The challenge now is to indicate the correct stroke order:
