  oké I had some small hope but thanks for testing and clarifying! not very elegant but kind of working: txt = 'Some Text\nwith new lines\rIs a return\na new line\ror a new paragraph?' paras = [[l + '\n' for l in p.split('\n')] for p in txt.split('\r')] newPage(150, 150) fstr = FormattedString() for para in paras: for l in para: extra_space = 5 if l == para[-1] else 0 fstr.append(l, paragraphBottomSpacing = extra_space) text(fstr, (20, 110))

  Thanks. Sorry, should have tried instead of thinking an omision in the documentation meant the functionality wasn't there.

  @frederik Thanks (and thanks for opening this over in the GitHub repo). I'll give it a try later today. Speed isn't a factor in this case because I'm generating static diagrams.

  use language('nl') to switch between languages, as DrawBot is typesetting environment... font('/Users/frederik/Downloads/source-code-pro-2.030R-ro-1.050R-it/OTF/SourceCodePro-Regular.otf') char = "б" fontSize(200) text(char, (10, 100)) language("sr") text(char, (150, 100))

  @gferreira said in Drawbot for other Operating Systems? Linux? Windows?: hello @dywen, DrawBot is macOS-only because it’s written on top of the macOS graphics layer. there have been some attempts at creating drawbots for other platforms using Cairo as the graphics layer (for example ShoeBot and Cairo DrawBot). not really sure how well these work. you might have more luck with Even, Processing, or Paper.js. hope this helps! Ok, thanks! Processing is already being taught at the school. I'll look into the other projects - already knowing one of the developers of Shoebot. I asked the question after reading about this nice tutorial sequence, based on Drawbot: http://pythonfordesigners.com/ Enjoy! (I won't ditch my Linux ;-))
