Comment Comment by mrcactu5 i was trying to build a word cloud algorithm and then I had a question: how do you rasterize letter shapes?I looked at pyCairo but I couldn't figure out how to use it. http://cairographics.org/documentation/pycairo/3/I asked on StackOverflow no answer http://stackoverflow.com/questions/21915335/getting-the-bitm...i found the true-type format shape files and extracted polygons from those - which i also don't know how to rasterize.i know this not really a response to the posted link - which is very low level and interesting - but maybe someone here knows an answer. parent mrcactu5 12 years ago
