lettersPoints 0.7

This library can be used to generate points that, when plotted, form letters. The height and spacing can be set.

This package is useful to generate points that, when plotted, form letters. The only function is write_text(), and it works with the following parameters:

write_text(string, height, distance_between_points, symbol_spacing = None, line_spacing = None, rotateAroundCenter = 0, filename = None):

string - the text meant to be plotted, can be of any length; the accepted symbols are A-Z, 0-9, !, ?, and n. All lowercase letters are converted to uppercase.

height - the height that the symbols should have; all symbols are of width 0.4*height, except ! - than one has width 0.2*height

distance_between_points - the distance between the points that will be generated

symbol_spacing - the distance between symbols; if None, it will be set to height/10

line_spacing - the distance between lines; if None, it will be set to height/10

rotateAroundCenter - the angle by which the symbols should be rotated around their center point

filename - a string; this will be the name of the csv output file (you don’t have to add the .csv extension in the name); default value is None, and for that no output file is generated
