Python modules

These files are used and required by some of the Python scripts available in the other repositories.

For FontLab scripts, put these files in [...]/FontLab/Studio 5/Macros/System/Modules. For the remaining scripts, put these files in the same folder as the script, or put them in one of the folders listed by sys.path.

Example code for WriteFeaturesKernFDK in RoboFont scripting window:

import os
import WriteFeaturesKernFDK

f = CurrentFont()

minKern = 5
writeTrimmed = False
writeSubtables = False

instanceFolder = os.path.dirname(f.path)

WriteFeaturesKernFDK.KernDataClass(f, instanceFolder, minKern, writeTrimmed, writeSubtables)

Example code for a Python file that uses WriteFeaturesKernFDK from the command line:

import sys
import os
from defcon import Font
import WriteFeaturesKernFDK

ufo = sys.argv[-1]
if ufo.endswith(os.sep):
    ufo = ufo[:-1]
f = Font(ufo)

minKern = 3
writeTrimmed = False
writeSubtables = True

instanceFolder = os.path.dirname(f.path)

WriteFeaturesKernFDK.KernDataClass(f, instanceFolder, minKern, writeTrimmed, writeSubtables)
