It exists to keep the PyMuPDF binary module lean while extending the available typefaces for PDF text rendering. The fonts include proportional sans-serif families (FiraGO, Noto Sans, Ubuntu), mono-spaced alternatives to Courier (FiraMono, Space Mono, Cascadia Mono, Ubuntu Mono), and specialized symbol fonts (Noto Sans Math, Noto Music, Noto Sans Symbols). Once installed, PyMuPDF automatically recognizes these fonts by their short codes and makes them available via standard APIs.\n\nThe package is pure Python with no compiled dependencies, making installation trivial across platforms. However, it is abandoned\u2014no updates since 2021-12-27\u2014so it will not receive maintenance or compatibility fixes if PyMuPDF's API or font handling changes. It is suitable for projects that need additional font choices in PDFs and can tolerate a static, unsupported dependency.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you need additional fonts for PyMuPDF PDFs and can accept that the package is no longer maintained. The fonts are well-chosen and cover common use cases (multilingual text, symbols, modern mono-spaced alternatives). Installation is frictionless and there are no known vulnerabilities. The main risk is incompatibility with future PyMuPDF versions, but for stable projects this is unlikely to be an immediate concern."},"id":"pymupdf-fonts","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pymupdf-fonts","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pymupdf-fonts.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/pymupdf-fonts/"},"maintenance":{"status":"abandoned"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2021-12-27","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"unclear","name":"pymupdf-fonts","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"Collection of font binaries for use in PyMuPDF"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":124113,"position":11886,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.0.5"}
