Re: Freetype for Python. AttributeError: module 'freetype' has no attribute 'Face'

[Alexei Podtelezhnikov]

I have bindings for freetype 2.4.0 for Python. I dont understand why that:

Do you realize that this version is 13 years old? I recently saw a current FreeType version in the anaconda environment. Just saying…

AttributeError: module 'freetype' has no attribute 'Face'

is coming from:

import freetype

face = freetype.Face("Vera.ttf")

face.set_char_size( 48*64 )

face.load_char('S')

bitmap = face.glyph.bitmap

print(bitmap.buffer)

FreeType requires initialization (internal module loading). See if you can find some _init_ method that you might need to call first.
