I’ve been toying with basically the same concepts. It’s fun. My preference has been to use SVG for the links (independent of whether the strokes are done raster or SVG). It’s not fundamentally any more expressive, but it’s much more convenient for a number of techniques like adding background colour or link underlines (I found changing only text colour with mix-blend-mode unsatisfactory), and links that span a line break. Here’s a snapshot of roughly where I last left this a few months ago. (I’ve had to substitute in an inferior document, as I was working with a lined-paper prose document that I’m not willing to share at this time. It works better with that type of content.) You can see that I’ve leaned into the pagination, styling it more paperily, and also that there’s a fairly significant overload of SVG filters which tend to ruin performance. I’ll pare that down significantly if I go ahead with it. (Still keeping some of the page-edge and maybe link shape roughness, but with a simpler paper texture.) https://temp.chrismorgan.info/2022-10-03-hand-drawn-with-links-demo.html https://temp.chrismorgan.info/2022-10-03-hand-drawn-with-lin... (almost 800KB because the pen uses a variable-width stroke and my SVG generation for that isn’t particularly optimised because I’ve skimped on some of the fancier trigonometry involved—but I should note that it’s much more accurate than the “lots of short line segments” approach used by every existing .rm-to-.svg library I found). Also if I go ahead with this, I’ll use the colour support that came in version 2.13 of the reMarkable system software, drawing my hyperlinks in blue from the start and reserving some highlighter colour if I want the background shading. Using distinct colours like this will make identifying and marking up links mechanically straightforward (since all the strokes in a given layer appear in draw order), leaving only the entry of the URL. —⁂— One other thing about the presentation on this site: the image scales to the viewport width, which is very, very not good: it means that regular desktop-style zoom (most importantly zoom out) just doesn’t work. The most common desktop screen sizes are getting the equivalent of a body font-size in excess of 50px (three times what is generally reasonable). You should add something like `.post { width: 40em }` which fixes the problem without causing any other trouble.
