Error ew faceerr 1

hi @deividAlfa When converting, an error like this always appears. What's wrong with me?

Hello, I enabled issues tab in my fork.

I have no idea, maybe you're using too new Linux os? I've had lots of issues since 2020, so my compiling VM is still in Ubuntu 20.

I'd say that there is something wrong with your font file. Haven't seen that error before.

iam using default font from windows, does it need the location address the font or just call it arial.ttf?

iam find this error in ttf2ugui.c

--font argument wants a filename. If .ttf file is not in current directory, you must give full path to it. I have never used windows font files, so I don't really know if they are compatible with library.

Look at freetype error codes here: https://freetype.org/freetype2/docs/reference/ft2-error_code_values.html

Error code 1 means "cannot open resource", ie. your arial.ttf is not found.

Of course, the ttf file must be in the same folder, it won't magically take it from Windows. Otherwise specify the full path, i.e.:

--font=/cygdrive/C/Windows/Fonts/Arial.ttf

But I would simply copy the ttf there for easiness, in fact it's the only way I've used it.

So this is now all solved then ?

yes, this was solved by adding ' ' sign between the fonts like 'Seven Segment.ttf' and finally the font was converted,

thank you for clarifying the problem I was facing *Note i am using cygwin in windows and the library can work well

Ok. I'm closing this now.
