Schrifttabelle

Die Schriftartunterstützung von Matplotlib wird von der FreeType-Bibliothek bereitgestellt.

Hier zeichnen wir tableeine Tabelle, die die Glyphen nach Unicode-Codepunkt zeigt. Der Kürze halber enthält die Tabelle nur die ersten 256 Glyphen.

Das Beispiel ist ein voll funktionsfähiges Skript. Sie können es herunterladen und verwenden, um eine Schriftart zu untersuchen, indem Sie es ausführen

python font_table.py /path/to/font/file

    # since FreeType 2.0 for Type 1 fonts but only since FreeType 2.8 for
    # TrueType (actually, SFNT) fonts).
