Hello, your open source project is excellent. I also have an open source ink screen project that needs TTF fonts, but it is the arduino platform. Can you tell me how to implement your TTF font library.

Hello, thank you for the kind words!

The EPub-Inkplate is using Freetype version 2.10.4. There is newer versions of the library but I can't tell if my recipe would work for the new ones. The recipe is described in the main Readme.md file of the project: there is a section devoted to the specifics of building it for the EPub-Inkplate.

Please note that the EPub-Inkplate has been built using the ESP-IDF SDK, not the Arduino. I can't tell if you would be successfull or not with it as I don' t have enough experience with the Arduino stuff to tell.

Good luck!
