My experience is with bitmapped fonts rather than vectors, but I assumed that a primary benefit of vector fonts was that they are scalable at runtime. As far as I can see your code renders them at a fixed size. Why is this?

This repo was created in response to question's I was asked, so the examples are basic. The TurtlePlotBot library that the code came from as well as the 'C' based st7789 driver support scaling.

Secondly, how do you get from a published Hershey font file to a Python font? There doesn't seem to be a vector equivalent to my font-to-py utility.

The https://github.com/russhughes/hershey-scripts repo has that code.

Much of this code was originally written when I was learning Python and working on a MicroPython version of the TurtlePlotBot that ran on an ESP8266. It was written as a learning experience and to fill the requirements of that project. I don't think anyone has expressed an interest in having a framebuffer version so I haven't written one.
