how to generate image of small font size with text2image?

[陈奕润]

I use tesseract to recognize game texts, which has a very small font size, so I want to generate images of small font size to fine tune tesseract, but after a few tries, I was not able to get the image I want. What am I doing wrong?

the first image is cut from game and enlarged twice the size, it looks the same with SimSun font in size 9.

the second image is generated by text2image, command is:

text2image --fonts_dir=fonts_my --font=SimSun --text=tmp/sample_text.txt--xsize 300 --ysize 50 --margin 0 --ptsize 9

I've uploaded the font I use, and the text is "蝙蝠翅膀".

due to file size limit, I couldn't upload the font file, the but the font is available in C:\Windows\Fonts

any help would be much appreciated

Can I have a look with the error message ?

Sorry that I didn't describe clearly, there is no error message, the problem is the generated image look different than how the font is used elsewhere, which affects recognition accuracy.

Take  windows' wordpad for example, the character ’蝙' in font NewSun will become pixelated and omit some strokes in small font size, other application is the same.

But with text2image, I can't get such pixelated characters even if I set the --ptsize to a low value, such as 9 or 5.
