difference between px and pt? about synthtext

[ankush-me]

Thank you, you're right, this function is being called here with font-size in points. This is likely a typo -- does using f_h_px instead of f_h give better results? Can you please confirm this?

[CatherineYao]

So, maybe f_h is not necessary and function get_font_size which transfer px to pt is not needed? We can just use px to do all calculation, right? @ankush-me

I found that font.size must be type of pt, so get_font_size is needed.
font = self.text_renderer.font_state.sample() font = self.text_renderer.font_state.init_font(font)
In this code, font size is randomly obtained but it does truly assigned to a value in font.size = f_h , right?

[ankush-me]

Your second comment is correct.

[CatherineYao]

def get_nline_nchar(self,mask_size,font_height,font_width):
"""
Returns the maximum number of lines and characters which can fit
in the MASK_SIZED image.
"""
H,W = mask_size
nline = int(np.ceil(H/(2font_height)))
nchar = int(np.floor(W/font_width))
return nline,nchar
You mean my last comment?
And there's still a question that why nline equals to H/(2font_height) instead of H/font_height.

[ankush-me]

Yes, last comment. 2*font_height, because we also want to insert some "line-spacing" / leave some space / not cramp in too much.
