  • both RoboFont and DrawBot look at the sitepackages folder for the same Python version as the one embedded in the app
  • currently Python 3.6 is embedded, so in Mojave one would have to install py3.6 in order to have RF access packages in 3.6/sitepackages…

back to your question:

How do I install site-packages in RF3 on Mojave, which comes with Python 3.7?

  1. if you don’t want to install py3.6, use the external_packages folder
  2. install Python 3.6, and then install custom libraries in 3.6/sitepackages
