:py:mod:`~PIL.ImageDraw` Module
===============================
The :py:mod:`~PIL.ImageDraw` module provides simple 2D graphics for
:py:class:`~PIL.Image.Image` objects. You can use this module to create new
images, annotate or retouch existing images, and to generate graphics on the
fly for web use.
For a more advanced drawing library for PIL, see the `aggdraw module`_.
.. _aggdraw module: https://github.com/pytroll/aggdraw
Example: Draw a gray cross over an image
----------------------------------------
::
import sys
from PIL import Image, ImageDraw
with Image.open("hopper.jpg") as im:
draw = ImageDraw.Draw(im)
draw.line((0, 0) + im.size, fill=128)
draw.line((0, im.size[1], im.size[0], 0), fill=128)
# write to stdout
im.save(sys.stdout, "PNG")
Concepts
--------
Coordinates
^^^^^^^^^^^
The graphics interface uses the same coordinate system as PIL itself, with (0,
0) in the upper left corner. Any pixels drawn outside of the image bounds will
be discarded.
Colors
^^^^^^
To specify colors, you can use numbers or tuples just as you would use with
:py:meth:`PIL.Image.new` or :py:meth:`PIL.Image.Image.putpixel`. For “1”,
“L”, and “I” images, use integers. For “RGB” images, use a 3-tuple containing
integer values. For “F” images, use integer or floating point values.
For palette images (mode “P”), use integers as color indexes. In 1.1.4 and
later, you can also use RGB 3-tuples or color names (see below). The drawing
layer will automatically assign color indexes, as long as you dont draw with
more than 256 colors.
Color Names
^^^^^^^^^^^
See :ref:`color-names` for the color names supported by Pillow.
Fonts
^^^^^
PIL can use bitmap fonts or OpenType/TrueType fonts.
Bitmap fonts are stored in PIL's own format, where each font typically consists
of two files, one named .pil and the other usually named .pbm. The former
contains font metrics, the latter raster data.
To load a bitmap font, use the load functions in the :py:mod:`~PIL.ImageFont`
module.
To load a OpenType/TrueType font, use the truetype function in the
:py:mod:`~PIL.ImageFont` module. Note that this function depends on third-party
libraries, and may not available in all PIL builds.
Example: Draw Partial Opacity Text
----------------------------------
::
from PIL import Image, ImageDraw, ImageFont
# get an image
with Image.open("Pillow/Tests/images/hopper.png").convert("RGBA") as base:
# make a blank image for the text, initialized to transparent text color
txt = Image.new("RGBA", base.size, (255, 255, 255, 0))
# get a font
fnt = ImageFont.truetype("Pillow/Tests/fonts/FreeMono.ttf", 40)
# get a drawing context
d = ImageDraw.Draw(txt)
# draw text, half opacity
d.text((10, 10), "Hello", font=fnt, fill=(255, 255, 255, 128))
# draw text, full opacity
d.text((10, 60), "World", font=fnt, fill=(255, 255, 255, 255))
out = Image.alpha_composite(base, txt)
out.show()
Example: Draw Multiline Text
----------------------------
::
from PIL import Image, ImageDraw, ImageFont
# create an image
out = Image.new("RGB", (150, 100), (255, 255, 255))
# get a font
fnt = ImageFont.truetype("Pillow/Tests/fonts/FreeMono.ttf", 40)
# get a drawing context
d = ImageDraw.Draw(out)
# draw multiline text
d.multiline_text((10, 10), "Hello\nWorld", font=fnt, fill=(0, 0, 0))
out.show()
Functions
---------
.. py:method:: Draw(im, mode=None)
Creates an object that can be used to draw in the given image.
Note that the image will be modified in place.
:param im: The image to draw in.
:param mode: Optional mode to use for color values. For RGB
images, this argument can be RGB or RGBA (to blend the
drawing into the image). For all other modes, this argument
must be the same as the image mode. If omitted, the mode
defaults to the mode of the image.
Attributes
----------
.. py:attribute:: ImageDraw.fill
:type: bool
:value: False
Selects whether :py:attr:`ImageDraw.ink` should be used as a fill or outline color.
.. py:attribute:: ImageDraw.font
The current default font.
Can be set per instance::
from PIL import ImageDraw, ImageFont
draw = ImageDraw.Draw(image)
draw.font = ImageFont.truetype("Tests/fonts/FreeMono.ttf")
Or globally for all future ImageDraw instances::
from PIL import ImageDraw, ImageFont
ImageDraw.ImageDraw.font = ImageFont.truetype("Tests/fonts/FreeMono.ttf")
.. py:attribute:: ImageDraw.fontmode
The current font drawing mode.
Set to ``"1"`` to disable antialiasing or ``"L"`` to enable it.
.. py:attribute:: ImageDraw.ink
:type: int
The internal representation of the current default color.
Methods
-------
.. py:method:: ImageDraw.getfont()
Get the current default font, :py:attr:`ImageDraw.font`.

it is initialized with :py:func:`.ImageFont.load_default`.

Returns length (in pixels with 1/64 precision) of given text when rendered
in font with provided direction, features, and language.
This is the amount by which following text should be offset.
Text bounding box may extend past the length in some fonts,
e.g. when using italics or accents.
The result is returned as a float; it is a whole number if using basic layout.
Note that the sum of two lengths may not equal the length of a concatenated
string due to kerning. If you need to adjust for kerning, include the following
character and subtract its length.
For example, instead of ::
hello = draw.textlength("Hello", font)
world = draw.textlength("World", font)
hello_world = hello + world # not adjusted for kerning
assert hello_world == draw.textlength("HelloWorld", font) # may fail
use ::
hello = draw.textlength("HelloW", font) - draw.textlength(
"W", font
) # adjusted for kerning
world = draw.textlength("World", font)
hello_world = hello + world # adjusted for kerning
assert hello_world == draw.textlength("HelloWorld", font) # True
or disable kerning with (requires libraqm) ::
hello = draw.textlength("Hello", font, features=["-kern"])
world = draw.textlength("World", font, features=["-kern"])
hello_world = hello + world # kerning is disabled, no need to adjust
assert hello_world == draw.textlength("HelloWorld", font, features=["-kern"]) # True
