Handwritten

For those who are too lazy to write lectures by hand, oops, it's me. My own handwritten font is used here. Distance learning has dramatically increased the number of lectures that had to be written by hand. So I wrote this small program.

Example

Here is an example in English (left/top) and in Russian (right/bottom). English isn't my native language, so I write like a robot :)

In Russian looks more real, at least the lecturer didn't notice.

Getting started

Install project

pip install handwritten-image

Setup

from handwritten_image import HandWrite
hand = HandWrite()

Convert to a handwritten images

You can easily convert your text to handwritten text using this method

hand.convert_to_image('your-text-file.docx') # or .doc and .txt file

Save directory

Specify the folder where you want to save the images using save_dir argument, if not specified, they will be saved to the current folder

hand.convert_to_image('your-text-file.docx', save_dir='images')

Random selection

If you don't need random sampling from the text, you can specify random_select=False argument

hand.convert_to_image('your-text-file.docx', random_select=False)

Text file to edit

Before converting to images, you may want to change the text (add brackets, remove extra characters, etc.). If edit=True it creates a txt file that you can edit and then use to create images.

hand.to_txt('your-text-file.docx', edit=True) # or .doc and .txt file

Note

Before converting the file to an image, remove the hand.to_txt() call, otherwise it will overwrite the file you edited

After you edit the file, you can convert this file

hand.convert_to_image('your-edited-file.txt', random_select=False)

Random selection

You also can specify the random_select=False argument if you don't need a random selection

hand.to_txt('your-text-file.docx', random_select=False)

Save folder

Default folder to save in your script folder and default file name is temp.txt. Specify save_path argument with file type if you want to change the name

hand.to_txt('your-text-file.docx', save_path='your-folder/file.txt')
