Print with your own font using Python?
In this, we are going to see how differently we can display our text in a very unique way using python.
So let suppose I want to display “Hello, Python” and out many ways I could display my text/string (“Hello, Python”) like:
Input
“Hello, Python”

Above is just the tip of the ice-pack, you can use many others font style to display your text.
I am going to use python pyfiglet module which will convert my regular strings in to ASCII art fonts. To install pyfiglet,simply run:
$pip install pyfiglet
In your terminal window, that it.
Example# 1
>>> import pyfiglet
>>> ascii_banner = pyfiglet.figlet_format("HELLO, PYTHON")
>>> print(ascii_banner)
_ _ _____ _ _ ___ ______ _______ _ _ ___ _ _
| | | | ____| | | | / _ \ | _ \ \ / /_ _| | | |/ _ \| \ | |

| _ | |___| |___| |__| |_| | | __/ | | | | | _ | |_| | |\ |
|_| |_|_____|_____|_____\___( ) |_| |_| |_| |_| |_|\___/|_| \_|
|/Example#2
>>> from pyfiglet import Figlet
>>> custom_fig = Figlet(font='graffiti')
>>> print(custom_fig.renderText('HELLO, PYTHON'))

/____/So my guess is you’re quite comfortable in finding a font you like and generate an ASCII art banner using pyfiglet to enhance your application.
