python-pillowHow to rotate text

We can't draw rotated text, but we can create separate image and draw text there. Then rotate that separate image and merge it with our original image:

from PIL import Image, ImageDraw, ImageFont

im = Image.open('/var/www/examples/heroine.png')
text = "I am hero"

tim = Image.new('RGBA', (500,200), (0,0,0,0))
dr = ImageDraw.Draw(tim)
ft = ImageFont.truetype('/var/www/examples/roboto.ttf', 100)
dr.text((0, 0), text, font=ft, fill=(200, 200, 0))

tim = tim.rotate(30,  expand=1)

im.paste(tim, (0,0), tim)
im.show()ctrl + cgithub

`PIL` import Pillow package modules	`Image.open` open given image with Pillow
`I am hero` text to print	`Image.new` create new `PIL` image object
`(0,0,0,0)` we create an image with transparent background	`ImageDraw.Draw` create drawing object
`ImageFont.truetype` create font object, with font and size we're going to use for text	`.text(` draws text with given params
`.rotate(` rotate given image	`30` rotate by 30 degrees
`expand=1` expand image if rotated image can't fit into initial size	`.paste(` paste image with text on top of loaded image
`.show()` displays resulting image

Usage example

from PIL import Image, ImageDraw, ImageFont

im = Image.open('/var/www/examples/heroine.png')
text = "I am hero"

tim = Image.new('RGBA', (500,200), (0,0,0,0))
dr = ImageDraw.Draw(tim)
ft = ImageFont.truetype('/var/www/examples/roboto.ttf', 100)
dr.text((0, 0), text, font=ft, fill=(200, 200, 0))

tim = tim.rotate(30,  expand=1)

im.paste(tim, (0,0), tim)
im.show()
