Single stroke text paths
#5
https://www.gimp-forum.net/Thread-Conver...gle-stroke

Center-line trace using AutoTrace via the Gimp plugin or  Inkscape just does not work for text characters. Too many sharp corners etc. 

Inkscape does have a Hershey Text extension and the text saved as a svg.

This a comparison of that Inkscape hershey txt and a Gimp / Autotrace center-line (kubuntu 20.04 / Gimp 2.10.32

   

Not impossible to tweak the path but depends how keen you are. As easy to trace by hand.
