Is the command you pasted, the one you used? -l am does not seem right.

[direselign]

This is the command that I use
python run.py -w 5 -f 64 -l am
it works with the default, but when I add a new font(Amharic) abbreviated am it is not working

[Belval]

Assuming that you added your the language correctly (if you have a branch somewhere I can take a look), the stacktrace seems to indicate that your font file is not a valid .ttf or .otf file. If you want you can load it with Pillow's ImageFont in an interpreter and see if it throws the same exception.

[direselign]

I check the fonts, there is no problem with the fonts
sample font
AbyssinicaSIL-R.zip

[Belval]

This is very weird, I was able to make it work on first try:

See my branch: https://github.com/Belval/TextRecognitionDataGenerator/tree/amharic

[direselign]

Thank you for your support. I think the problem is not in the code there may be a library that is not working correctly in my environment. After generating three or more images the program terminates.

Closing since the issue is not with the project.
