hi
i'm looking for a python lib or module to draw text as graphic and save it as png,
but i also need to support right-to-left languages like Farsi.
i tested PIL with no success for unicode rtl texts(it draws text reverse and un-joint).
so what do you suggest?
(it's better to be cross-platform with minimum requirement)
thanks

One Laptop per Child project based mostly on Python uses library called Pango to support special 3rd world country languages (maybe I saw even Farsi mentioned). Maybe you could check it out.
