running the selftest.py I find the following output: -------------------------------------------------------------------- PIL 1.1.7 TEST SUMMARY -------------------------------------------------------------------- Python modules loaded from C:\Python26\lib\site-packages\PIL Binary modules loaded from C:\Python26\lib\site-packages\PIL -------------------------------------------------------------------- --- PIL CORE support ok --- TKINTER support ok --- JPEG support ok --- ZLIB (PNG/ZIP) support ok *** FREETYPE2 support not installed --- LITTLECMS support ok -------------------------------------------------------------------- Running selftest: --- 57 tests passed.
I tried installing freetype2 from the GnuWin people (http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/freetype.htm) but that didn't seem to help, even with a reinstall of PIL. Do I need to try to recompile PIL or do something else? sxstrace output doesn't seem helpful to me either, unfortunately most of my C experience is on other OS's, but I'm willing to play around.
