I did something similar a while back when implementing a PDF generator. Its not impossible but was overkill for my needs. The hardest part would be figuring out how to link the font size parameter with the CSS style on the page to truly get a stand alone filter. Tim,

This filter takes it a step further, its has a "..." variant and works on any string. I used it on titles. Yes there is already a filter in Django that does something similar, its called: urlizetrunc.

This filter takes it a step further, its has a “…” variant and works on any string. I used it on titles.

How difficult would it be to implement based on the pixel width of the string as opposed to the character width? In other words, I don't use mono-spaced text. Looks good.

The main difference is that the Django version adds rel="nofollow" to the links, since it was intended for comment fields and the likes. You may well want to add link authority to the targets.

Note that I also implemented my own character truncate filter recently because urlizetrunc does not work with emails. Cheers, Vincent. You can also use the urlizetrunc filter to truncate URLs.
