[reportlab-users] RenderPM in 1.1.9

[Andy Robinson]

You registered the font name 'comic' to the
file in the local directory 'georgia.ttf'. Then
you asked for GOTHIC.  That's the prioblem.

Try this:
  pdfmetrics.registerFont(TTFont(GOTHIC', 'c:\\winnt\\fonts\\gothic.ttf'))
  d.add(String(30,50,'jjj',fontName='GOTHIC'))

It doesn't auto-search the Windows font directory.

Hope this helps,

Andy Robinson

Hi:
1   In reportlab 1.1.9 said: Support for True Type Fonts in renderPM.
     Can you tell me how to use it?
     I do it as following;
     from reportlab  import *
     from reportlab.graphics import renderPM
     from reportlab.pdfbase import pdfmetrics
     from reportlab.pdfbase.ttfonts import TTFont
     pdfmetrics.registerFont(TTFont('comic', 'georgia.ttf'))
     from reportlab.lib import colors
     from reportlab.graphics.shapes import *
    d = Drawing(400,200)
    d.add(Rect(50,50,300,100, fillColor=colors.yellow))
    d.add(String(30,50,'jjj',fontName='GOTHIC.TTF'))
    renderPM.drawToFile(d, 'out.jpg', 'JPG')
The resualt is:
  RenderPMError: Can't setFont(GOTHIC.TTF) missing the T1 files?
  Originally exceptions.KeyError: GOTHIC.TTF
  GOTHIC.TTF is in c:\winnt\fonts
2   How could I draw some 3dchart,can you give me some examples/
 Thanks in advance
