As @tjoneslo has pointed out, PyPDFLite is fairly moribund. Switching to a PDF package that is actively supported (ReportLab) means there will be a lot less (if none at all) patches to carry out-of-tree, thus cut sector map generation over from PyPDFLite to ReportLab.
Before-and-after tests (before with PyPDFLite, after with ReportLab) are enabled via PyMuPDF generating PNG renders of each file, then comparing the before-and-after renders with numpy.
Such before-and-after tests include:
Verify solo empty-sector write;
Verify solo single-subsector trade, comm and xboat write;
Verify coreward-rimward and spinward-trailing sector name additions;
Verify trade routes in the subsectors immediately adjacent to where Corridor, Deneb, Provence and Tuglikki meet with borders added;
@tjoneslo , any other before-and-after tests you can think of or would like to see added?
For whatever reason, the rimward-sector names weren't centre-aligned, instead being left aligned at 306 pixels - I've replicated that behaviour as-is in PDFHexMap.
