TTFQuery
FontTools-based package for querying system fonts
TTFQuery builds on the FontTools package to allow the Python programmer to accomplish a number of tasks:
- query the system to find installed fonts
- retrieve metadata about any TTF font file (even those not yet installed)
- abstract family type
- proper font name
- glyph outlines
- build simple metadata registries for run-time font matching, holding the fonts text can be laid out with and reporting the files that cannot
With these functionalities, it is possible to readily create OpenGL solid-text rendering libraries which can accept abstract font-family names as font specifiers and deliver platform-specific TTF files to match those libraries.
TTFQuery doesn't provide rendering services, but a sample implementation can be found in the OpenGLContext project, from which TTFQuery was refactored.
