error font searching... in utils.py

[nicezic]

I got a font related error running the first sample code.

My env is , no GPU, Win10, conda with python 3.6

What I did first was downloading and install 'FreeSan.ttf' into system.

However, it didn't help out.

Then, I figured out what the problem was.

For me, this code, "len(font_files)" in vis/util/utils.py causes the problem.

#    font_files = _find_font_file(font)
#     if len(font_files) == 0:
#         logger.warn("Failed to lookup font '{}', falling back to default".format(font))
#         font = ImageFont.load_default()
#     else:
#         font = ImageFont.truetype(font_files[0], font_size)
    font = ImageFont.load_default()

So, This is my way around, just using default font without checking a specific font.

FYI, Below is the traceback.

Are you using install from source? This was an old issue that happens because of python2/3 inconsistency and has been fixed. Feel free ti reopen if you see this in latest.

I am using Win10, Python 3.5 I still got the problem, no FreeSans.ttf ,so i use the font 'Arial.ttf' img = utils.draw_text(img, 'Filter {}'.format(idx), font='Arial.ttf')

Hi @Lijiachen1018 . Your problem was not reproduced in my test environment. (But I have no Win10, so my environment is Win7, Python3.5 (Anaconda).) Can you give me error log?

[Lijiachen1018]

It is because no FreeSan.ttf file in my system so I tried 'Arial.ttf' or 'Times.ttf' The error: Failed to lookup font 'FreeSans.ttf', falling back to default
