    copied!<p>I'm trying to write text on an image of a QR-Code, but I can't find a way to write in another colour than white (which is pretty useless for a QR-Code).</p> <p>So here is the error page I get (I'm using Django too) :</p> <pre><code>TypeError at /pret/qrcode/ an integer is required Request Method: GET Request URL: http://127.0.0.1:8000/pret/qrcode/ Django Version: 1.6.1 Exception Type: TypeError Exception Value: an integer is required Exception Location: /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/PIL/ImageDraw.py in _getink, line 146 Python Executable: /usr/bin/python Python Version: 2.7.3 Traceback: File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/django/core/handlers/base.py" in get_response 114. response = wrapped_callback(request, *callback_args, **callback_kwargs) File "/home/arthur/workspace/PretD/pret/views.py" in qrcodee 160. draw.text((0, 0),"This is a test",(255,255,0),font=font) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/PIL/ImageDraw.py" in text 256. ink, fill = self._getink(fill) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/PIL/ImageDraw.py" in _getink 146. ink = self.draw.draw_ink(ink, self.mode) Exception Type: TypeError at /pret/qrcode/ Exception Value: an integer is required </code></pre> <p>In my view I have: </p> <pre><code> foo = qrcode.make(request.user.email) foo.format = "PNG" foo.save('pret/static/media/qrcode.png') font = ImageFont.truetype("pret/static/DejaVuSans.ttf", 20) img=Image.open("pret/static/media/qrcode.png") draw = ImageDraw.Draw(img) draw.text((0, 0),"String test",(255,255,0),font=font) draw = ImageDraw.Draw(img) del draw img.save('pret/static/media/qrcode.png') </code></pre> <p>with these imports:</p> <pre><code>import ImageDraw import ImageFont import Image </code></pre> <p>NB: Python couldn't find "PIL" when I tried to write</p> <pre><code>import PIL from PIL import Image, ImageFond, ImageDraw </code></pre> <p>but it worked without mentioning it, I guess it's already included in Django by default.
