I don't run Windows but I quickly glanced over the Freetype documentation. You'll need to make sure that Freetype is in your compiler path and that you reference it when you compile PIL. For my information, look at this page:
http://freetype.sourceforge.net/freetype2/docs/tutorial/step1.html Hopefully that helps a little. Good luck! One other option that's pretty easy to use is Google's Recaptcha. It might save you quite a headache. I tried to find a django application that would make this even easier for you, but the two I found lacked documentation and I just assume they're dead. It is really easy to implement it yourself though. http://www.google.com/recaptcha On Oct 22, 3:49 pm, jenia ivlev <jenia.iv...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hello. > > I want to install Freetype and pil for windows and don't know how to > proceed. > > I'm using python 2.7 with Django and windows 7. > > I installed the PIL and Freetype binaries but still my code cannot > execute Freetype (although PIL works perfectly). > > That's the Freetype > libaries:http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/freetype.htm. > > That's the PIL libraries:http://www.pythonware.com/products/pil/ > > This is the binding that i used for > Freetype:http://code.google.com/p/freetype-py/downloads/detail?name=freetype-p... > > This is the application that uses this freetype > library:http://code.google.com/p/django-simple-captcha/. > > Can you please instruct me on how to install PIL and Freetype to work > with python. > > Thank you for your kind concern. > > Jenia -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
