Example Code

import re
from PIL import Image, ImageFont
import emoji

# Regex for Japanese Kana
jap = re.compile(r'[\u3040-\u309F\u30A0-\u30FF]')

img = Image.new("RGB", (1150, 630), (255, 255, 255))
# Note: Please ensure you have these font files or replace them with your local font paths
font1 = ImageFont.truetype(r'PINGFANG MEDIUM.TTF', 24)
font2 = ImageFont.truetype(r'unifont-16.0.02.otf', 24)
font3 = ImageFont.truetype(r'Segoe UI.ttf', 24)
# Note: For fonts like Noto Color Emoji, pay attention to the font size (e.g., 109), 
# otherwise they may fail to load correctly.
font_emoji = ImageFont.truetype("NotoColorEmoji.ttf", 109)


power_text.draw_text(
    img,
    (10, 10),  # Starting xy coordinates

皆さん✨、我在インターネット上看到someone把几国language混在一起speak🌍。我看到之后be like：それは我じゃないか！😂 私もtry一tryです🎉。虽然是混乱している句子ですけど、中文日本語プラスEnglish、挑戦スタート🚀！  

我study📖日本語的时候，もし有汉字，我会很happy😊。Bueause中国人として、when I see汉字，すぐに那个汉字がわかります✨。But 我hate😤外来語、什么マクドナルド🍔、スターバックス☕、グーグル🔍、ディズニーランド🏰、根本记不住カタカナhow to写、太難しい😭。  

以上です✌️，byebye👋！

        power_text.Font(font3, lambda data: data['text'].lower() in "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789"),
        # Match Japanese Kana using font2 (unifont), colored blue
        power_text.Font(font2, lambda data: jap.match(data['text']) is not None, (22, 125, 255)),
        # Match emojis using font_emoji (Noto Color Emoji), set 'size' for automatic scaling to match text
        power_text.Font(font_emoji, lambda data: emoji.is_emoji(data['text']), size=24),
        # Fallback for other characters (e.g., CJK ideographs) using font1 (PingFang), colored red
        power_text.Font(font1, lambda _: True, (220, 20, 60))
    ],
    (0, 0, 0),  # Default font color (black)
    max_x=886,  # Maximum width (auto line wrap if exceeded)
    max_y=200,  # Maximum height (auto truncation if exceeded)
    end_text="..."  # Truncation symbol
