Loop in "fill_textbox()" method

[HelloKitty2022]

    text='111111111'

writer = fitz.TextWriter(page.rect, color=blue) # start a text writer
writer.fillTextbox( # fill in above text
fitz.Rect(0,10,300,800), # keep text inside this
text, # the text
# align=fitz.TEXT_ALIGN_JUSTIFY, # alignment
# warn=True, # keep going if too much text
fontsize=8,
font=font,
)
overtime，i try give the bigger rectangle ，no use . try delete some words，it works，
i roll back to 1.18.8 it works without delete words

[HelloKitty2022]

for this i try import eventlet to limit time

[HelloKitty2022]

font=fitz.Font(ordering=0)

[HelloKitty2022]

fitz.Rect(0,10,500,800) in 1.18.9 works
but the text is not too long，i get English text from PDF and put other language text replace it with same rectangle，if dont limit filltext's rectangle，the text would be scaled when using "writer.writeText(page)" ,so i need limit the rectangle and cant give it 500.

yes, there is an error in the function that splits words which are longer than the rect width.
Your text is one single word, so something goes wrong and a loop is entered.
I am debugginh this.

Found it:
In utils.py the following yellow line is missing:

You can update this file yourself or use the attached version to replace it in your installation to test if things are working then.
utils.zip

The error will happen if the text contains words that are longer than 2 textbox widths.
I will prepare a hotfix.

thanks a lot
i have learned much from this lib

[JorjMcKie]

I have generated a pre-version 1.18.10.
Here are Mac OSX wheel, and here Linux.
If you want a Windows version, pleae drop me a note with your Python version and bitness (32 or 64).

fixed in just published v1.18.10
