I could really use some help. Please take a look at the following image: http://img227.imageshack.us/img227/1346/grainynn3.png
As you can see, the text in the image is fairly grainy. To get to that point, I converted an ArialBold TTF to a BDF using otf2bdf (http://crl.nmsu.edu/~mleisher/ttf2bdf.html) and then I used pilfont utility (http://www.pythonware.com/library/pil/handbook/pilfont.htm) to convert the file into a .PIL and .PBM file. I'd expect the font to be smooth, but no such luck. Any idea what could be happening here? For what it's worth, I'm using a Mac (OSX 10.5.4). Here is the PIL code as well: >> import Image, ImageDraw, ImageFont >> font = ImageFont.load("Arial.pil") >> im = Image.open("../images/image.png") >> dr = ImageDraw.Draw(im) >> dr.text((79,34), "Successfully used the Python Image Library", font=font) >> im.save("../images/grainy.png", "PNG") -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
