freetype not found #62

Open ironsightdesign opened 3 weeks ago

Not sure this is the best place for this question, but trying to use font_to_py.py to convert a font and getting "font_to_py requires the freetype library" even though I've done brew install freetype multiple times.

Not finding anyway to get pip to work and brew list shows freetype. Maybe font_to_py doesnt like where brew puts the library?

Any ideas?

I'm sorry but I have no experience of the Mac. I do know that Mac users have run font-to-py successfully. Does pip or pip3 not work on the Mac?
