Is there a way to do it in reverse?

If you mean from a drawing of lines in the exact same style to the original text prompt, i dont think so. Unless you make some program that can be given the start and endpoint of the drawing, then it could decode the length and angle of all lines from end to start. This would not allow for overlapping lines though, since multiple lines could be overlapping, but maybe that actually doesnt matter. Could be a fun experiment :)

Sorry, I do not understand, any explanation please?

Basically it's a drawing program that takes as input letters and then moves a cursor different distances and rotations based on which letter is next.

So people are having fun coming up with letter permutations that draw something insteresting.
