How to convert timeline to .png? about labella.py HOT 5 CLOSED

It's been a while, but I probably used ImageMagick to convert directly from PDF to PNG, as this gives better results. To set custom fonts you can use the preamble field for the latex options.

Hm... even trying https://svgtopng.com/ to convert the .svg to .png results in the same remnants. Its probably not with cairosvg.
I'm curious to see how you do this.
With the customized font on the textfn option removed, https://svgtopng.com/ conversion works. But the cairosvg code does not work.

Aha...leaving the {\\fontfamily{phv}\\selectfont" customization off of the textfn option seems to work.

• Though ideally I'd like to change the font

But, now the width of each timeline event isn't proportional to the text:

• Also the left margin is cutting off the months of the timeline

  • This is fixed with "margin": {"left": 70, "right": 20, "top": 20, "bottom": 20}, setting

• 

• NOTE: This is only for the .png generated by the code above (cairosvg)

  • The .pdf and the converted .svg-to-.png using svgtopdg.com seem to work ok

I'll close this issue as it appears to be resolved. Please reopen if that's not the case.

Right on. I spend a decent amount of time trying to install Wand / ImageMagick on Windows 10. Ew! I wasn't successful. I will try another PDF-PNG conversion.

Thank you!
