Hi dear developers!!! I need some help with building the OpenCV 4.5.2 with CMake and freetype lib enabled. I add the extra_module_pass and put the contrib modules inside, everything configures and builds good, except the freetype library, i cant find it in the install folder (not in includes not in libs) it seems like CMake doesnt build it at all.
Also i tried to turno ON WITH_FREETYPE flag, it doesnt help!!!
Please give me a hand with a problem
WITH_FREETYPE=ON
Thank you for a quick reply!
I installed freetype and harfbuzz using vcpkg and i don’t know how to link them to CMake during the OpenCV configuration and generation. Could you please tell in more detailes how to link freetype and harfbuzz to the cmake?
I use the same versions of OpenCV master branch and contrib brach (4.5.3) , sorry i wrote 4.5.2 before;
Here is the cmake console:

Also check this branch, it doesnt help me! I cant find a solution
sorry, cant help any further ;(
but note, that upcoming opencv5 will have builtin support for true-type fonts
(so this might no more be nessecary)
Thank you anyway! Don’t you know the release date?
idk, sorry. (christmas ?)
Does it mean it is already done or I misunderstood something? I mean the link you provided
it is already done in another branch (5.0 (aka ‘next’), not 4.5.3)
you can look at it here
It sounds great!!! Don’t you know how to use it? I mean is there any code example how to use new feture with truetype?
Sorry for my infinite questions
This question is pretty old, but I’ve got similar problem.
These dependencies are checked by pkg-config. So freetype2 and harfbuzz should be found in the pkg-config search path.
You can check if they are installed by these lines:
$ pkg-config harfbuzz --modversion
$ pkg-config freetype2 --modversion
So you need to install them by your OS package manager. I’m using Mac, so brew helped me:
$ brew install freetype2
$ brew install harfbuzz
