=====
|
|
|
|
This library provides functions which take in UFO objects (Defcon Fonts
|
|
or Robofab RFonts) and converts any cubic curves to quadratic. The most
|
|
useful function is probably ``fonts_to_quadratic``:
|
|
|
|
.. code:: python
|
|
|
|
from defcon import Font
|
|
from cu2qu.ufo import fonts_to_quadratic
|
|
thin_font = Font('MyFont-Thin.ufo')
|
|
bold_font = Font('MyFont-Bold.ufo')
|
|
fonts_to_quadratic([thin_font, bold_font])
|
|
|
|
Interpolation compatibility is guaranteed during conversion. If it's not
|
|
needed, converting one font at a time may yield more optimized results:
|
|
|
|
.. code:: python
|
|
|
|
for font in [thin_font, bold_font]:
|
|
fonts_to_quadratic([font])
|
|
|
|
Some fonts may need a different error threshold than the default (0.0025
|
|
em). This can also be provided by the caller:
|
|
|
|
.. code:: python
|
|
|
|
fonts_to_quadratic([thin_font, bold_font], max_err_em=0.005)
|
|
|
|
.. code:: python
|
|
|
|
for font in [thin_font, bold_font]:
|
|
fonts_to_quadratic([font], max_err_em=0.001)
|
|
|
|
``fonts_to_quadratic`` can print a string reporting the number of curves
|
|
of each length. For example
|
|
``fonts_to_quadratic([font], dump_stats=True)`` may print something
|
|
like:
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
3: 1000
|
|
4: 2000
|
|
5: 100
|
|
|
|
meaning that the font now contains 1000 curves with three points, 2000
|
|
with four points, and 100 with five. Given multiple fonts, the function
|
|
will report the total counts across all fonts. You can also accumulate
|
|
statistics between calls by providing your own report dictionary:
|
|
|
|
.. code:: python
|
|
|
|
stats = {}
|
|
for font in [thin_font, bold_font]:
|
|
fonts_to_quadratic([font], stats=stats)
|
|
# "stats" will report combined statistics for both fonts
