freetypy.ORIENTATION

class freetypy.ORIENTATION

Specifies how an Outline is oriented.

  • TRUETYPE: According to the TrueType specification, clockwise contours must be filled, and counter-clockwise ones must be unfilled.
  • POSTSCRIPT: According to the PostScript specification, counter-clockwise contours must be filled, and clockwise ones must be unfilled.
  • FILL_RIGHT: This is identical to ORIENTATION.TRUETYPE, but is used to remember that in TrueType, everything that is to the right of the drawing direction of a contour must be filled.
  • FILL_LEFT: This is identical to ORIENTATION.POSTSCRIPT, but is used to remember that in PostScript, everything that is to the left of the drawing direction of a contour must be filled.
  • NONE: The orientation cannot be determined. That is, different parts of the glyph have different orientation.
