Render a static title / ending card PNG with Pillow. Centered headline + optional subtitle on a solid-colour background. Uses managed or platform CJK fonts with glyph verification and fails actionably instead of rendering tofu. Pure deterministic, no LLM, no network. Used by meta-short-drama for opening and closing cards.

|---|---|---|---|
text | yes | — | Headline text. Auto-wraps at ~10 chars per line for CJK. |
output | yes | — | Output .png path. |
subtitle | no | "" | Smaller line beneath the headline. |
background | no | #101018 | Hex color #RRGGBB. |
text_color | no | #ffffff | Headline color. |
font_size | no | 96 | Headline font size in pixels. |
subtitle_size | no | 36 | Subtitle font size in pixels. |
width | no | 720 | Output width in pixels. Match the merge pipeline. |
height | no | 1280 | Output height. 720x1280 = 9:16. |
font | no | "" | Optional .ttf, .otf, or .ttc path. Must contain the requested CJK glyphs. |
Prints the absolute path of the written PNG on stdout. The PNG is RGB (no alpha), JPEG-quality-equivalent file ~30-80 KB depending on text length.
Resolution order is --font, the managed media directory from
OPENSQUILLA_MEDIA_FONTS_DIR, user font directories, then platform defaults:
Microsoft YaHei / SimHei / DengXian on Windows; PingFang / Hiragino Sans GB /
STHeiti / Songti on macOS; Noto CJK / Source Han / WenQuanYi on Linux. Font
collection files (.ttc/.otc) are supported. Before drawing, the renderer
compares requested non-ASCII glyphs with the font's missing-glyph signature. A font
that would produce tofu is skipped. If no compatible scalable font exists, the
step fails with an actionable --font / OPENSQUILLA_MEDIA_FONTS_DIR message
for CJK or other non-ASCII text; it never silently emits tiny bitmap squares.
Pure ASCII cards remain available on minimal systems through Pillow's built-in
font when no scalable font is installed.
