it is not a valid folder path

[RePlayer2]

I use the OTF (Zebrawood. otf) file from the font file and the SVG file from the test file to run the code in the Command Line Window, which shows that it is not a valid folder path

[miguelsousa]

svg_folder_path and input_path are positional arguments, not optional arguments, therefore the paths should not be preceded by any arguments. Try the following command instead:

python addsvg.py "H:\test_py\opentypesvg\" "H:\test_py\opentypesvg\Zebrawood.otf"

Thank you for answering my question，but i used your method the Command line Window still show”is not valid folder path“, I think ，I may need other ways to use the "addsvg.py" file

@RePlayer2 what output do you get when you run this command:

addsvg --help

Don't add anything to the command above. If opentypesvg was installed via pip you should be able to run the command above from any directory.

@miguelsousa This is my command used "addsvg --help“ the English means is roughly ‘addsvg’ is not an internal or external command, nor is it a runnable program or bathc file however, I sure "pip instal opentypesvg"and "pip install -u pip" this is result

but my PyCharm is run this issue‘s code ,in the picture below "the libeary is pip install opentypesvg"

add to used library of opentypesvg succeed run my code，my pythons version is 3.8 ，ued venv all contain opentype-svg but is not use "addsvg --help" or "run code addsvg in pycharm"，Whether it's "pip install opentype svg" or "addsvg code" the troubel is feel at a loss for me

OK, let's go step by step:

1. Create a virtual environment

   python -m venv ot-svg

2. Activate the virtual environment

   ot-svg\Scripts\activate.bat

3. Install opentypesvg package

   python -m pip install opentypesvg

4. Get the help for addsvg tool

   addsvg --help
