I'm trying to center some graphical text using the PIL. Anyone have a clue
how to do this?
If there's some way of knowing how big the resulting graphical word is, I
could obviously center it.
For example:
import ImageFont, ImageDraw, Image
image_file = "button.jpg"
image = Image.open(image_file)
font = "arial.ttf"
draw = ImageDraw.Draw(image)
font = ImageFont.truetype(font, 12)
draw.text((1, 1), "hi there", font=font)
image.save("temp.jpg")
In the above code, the 1, 1 is the x & y coordinates for the text.
