The parameter direction of ImageDraw.text can't use Chinese sequence #3125
Description
What did you do?
- I try to draw chinese character by following test code
from PIL import Image, ImageDraw, ImageFont
size = 32
font = ImageFont.truetype('./font/simsun.ttf', size)
img = Image.new('RGBA', (size, size), (0, 0, 0, 0))
draw = ImageDraw.Draw(img)
draw.text((0, 0), '我和你', fill='black', direction='ttb')- Futhermore, if I don't use chinese, just english:
from PIL import Image, ImageDraw, ImageFont, features
size = 32
img = Image.new('RGBA', (size, size), (255, 255, 255))
draw = ImageDraw.Draw(img)
draw.text((0, 0), 'abc', fill='black', direction='rtl')What did you expect to happen?
- I want to get the image like that
我
和
你
- I want to get the image
What actually happened?
