Hello

Please could someone point me to where I can obtain a precompiled Win32 dll for FreeType V2.4.3?

Thank you very much

Tom

Hello

I am looking for a built Win32 dll of FreeType V2.4.3. I can pay 50 USD via PayPal if someone could build this for me.

Apologies for posting twice - I could successfully build it as a .lib static library, but no success trying to build as a .dll. There are features in this latest version that are essential to an app I am trying to release.

Thank you

Tom

Thank you mpsuzuki

Just tested in my app and it is working perfectly.

The issue I was experiencing on the older FreeType I was using is that .otf files were not being recognised.

The version you uploaded has fixed the problem.

Thank you very much - your help is much appreciated.

Tom

I wanted to let people know that I picked up Ryan Coyner's Python freetype2 bindings and pushed them forward quite a bit. It doesn't have complete coverage of freetype2 yet, but the main functionality is accessible and functional.

I wanted to let people know that I picked up Ryan Coyner's Python freetype2 bindings and pushed them forward quite a bit. It doesn't have complete coverage of freetype2 yet, but the main functionality is accessible and functional.

The binding is written in pure Python with ctypes and so has no dependencies.  In order to enable people to work directly from the freetype2 documentation, it doesn't try to make the interface particularly Pythonic.  As a result, you'll need to know something about ctypes to use it effectively.

I haven't yet verified it on Windows but that should come along fairly soon.

The freetype tutorials have been ported and are included in the test/ directory.

The project is hosted on github at https://github.com/leovitch/python-ft2 and it would be great to have some other folks using it.
