BinaryWriter
Overview
BinaryWriter is a class in Aspose.Font FOSS for Python.
Accumulates bytes for binary font serialization.
This class provides 19 methods for working with BinaryWriter objects in Python programs.
Available methods include: __init__, seek, tell, to_bytes, write_bytes, write_f2dot14, write_fixed, write_i16, write_i16_le, write_i32, write_i8, write_padding, and 7 additional methods.
All public members are accessible to any Python application after installing the Aspose.Font FOSS for Python package.
Methods
| Signature | Description |
|---|---|
__init__() | Calls init on this BinaryWriter instance. |
tell() → int | Returns the current write position as an integer |
seek(offset: int) | Seek to an absolute position for back-patching. |
to_bytes() → bytes | Returns the accumulated binary data as a bytes object |
write_u8(v: int) | Writes an unsigned 8‑bit integer to the buffer |
write_u16(v: int) | Writes an unsigned 16‑bit integer in big‑endian order |
write_u16_le(v: int) | Calls write_u16_le on this BinaryWriter instance. |
write_u32(v: int) | Calls write_u32 on this BinaryWriter instance. |
write_u32_le(v: int) | Writes an unsigned 32‑bit integer in little‑endian order |
write_u64(v: int) | Calls write_u64 on this BinaryWriter instance. |
write_i8(v: int) | Writes a signed 8‑bit integer to the buffer |
write_i16(v: int) | Writes a signed 16‑bit integer in big‑endian order |
write_i16_le(v: int) | Calls write_i16_le on this BinaryWriter instance. |
write_i32(v: int) | Calls write_i32 on this BinaryWriter instance. |
write_fixed(v: float) | 16.16 fixed-point. |
write_f2dot14(v: float) | 2.14 fixed-point. |
write_bytes(data: bytes | bytearray) | Appends raw bytes or a bytearray to the buffer |
write_tag(tag: str) | Write a 4-character ASCII tag. |
write_padding(n: int) | Write n zero bytes. |
