Hi SignWriting list,

I'm happy to announce that I have completed and published my second 
python library: sutton-signwriting-font.

Source Code: https://github.com/sutton-signwriting/font-py
Documentation: https://www.sutton-signwriting.io/font-py

This library can create SVG and PNG images for individual symbols, 
complete signs, and columns of text using either Formal SignWriting in 
ASCII (FSW) or SignWriting in Unicode (SWU).  It fully support the style 
string.

With my two python libraries, "sutton-signwriting-core" and 
"sutton-signwriting-font", I will be creating interactive Jupyter 
Notebooks to teach Formal SignWriting.  I will be covering simple 
concepts like what is a symbol key, along with advanced topics like how 
searching works with the various options available.

Regards,
-Steve
