kandi X-RAY | micropython-font-to-py Summary

micropython-font-to-py is a Python library. micropython-font-to-py has no bugs, it has no vulnerabilities, it has a Permissive License and it has low support. However micropython-font-to-py build file is not available. You can download it from GitHub.

MicroPython platforms generally have limited RAM, but more abundant storage in the form of flash memory. Font files tend to be relatively large. The conventional technique of rendering strings to a device involves loading the entire font into RAM. This is fast but RAM intensive. The alternative of storing the font as a random access file and loading individual glyphs into RAM on demand is too slow for reasonable performance on most display devices. This alternative implements a font as a Python source file, with the data being declared as bytes objects. Such a file may be frozen as bytecode: this involves building the firmware from source with the Python file in a specific directory. On import very little RAM is used, yet the data may be accessed fast. Note that the use of frozen bytecode is entirely optional: font files may be imported in the normal way if RAM usage is not an issue.
