i am looking for python code to convert a textfile(.txt) to an image(preferrably Tiff).I believe it involves some scanning and conversion using some font table and probably compression using huffman encoding..is there an open source code doing this?can someone give a pointer? jim
You can use PIL to do this. I have a small class that I wrote that does this using PIL. Supports background TIF image (e.g. form). I used it to generate TIFF images of a client's Invoices for them. If you are interested, drop me an email and I'll forward it to you. It does also depend on netpbm because PIL doesn't support outputting of compressed TIFF images.
