Hi everybody,I’d want to draw hieroglyphs in matplotlib.I have the code below
but it only draws little rectangles rather than hieroglyphs. Thanks a lot for help.
import matplotlib
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import matplotlib.font_manager as fm
import os
fm._get_fontconfig_fonts.cache_clear()
#fm._rebuild()
font = fm.FontEntry(fname=‘c:\Windows\Fonts\NotoSansEgyptianHieroglyphs-Regular.ttf’, name=‘NotoSansEgyptianHieroglyphs’,style=‘normal’)
fm.fontManager.ttflist.append(font)
print(fm.fontManager.ttflist[-3:])
#matplotlib.rc(‘font’, family=font_name)
print(“font family: “, plt.rcParams[‘font.family’])
fig, axs = plt.subplots()
h1 = ‘\U00013000’
h2 = ‘\U00013143’
h3 = ‘\U000130D2’
print(f”{h1} {h2} {h3}”)
axs.plot([0, 100], [0, 100])
axs.text(50, 50, f"{h1} {h2} {h3}")
plt.show()
Have a nice day
