+class TTFont(object):
+    """Represents a TrueType font.
+
+    The object manages file input and output, and offers a convenient way of
+    accessing tables. Tables will be only decompiled when necessary, ie. when
+    they're actually accessed. This means that simple operations can be extremely fast.
+
+    Example usage:
+    .. code-block:: pycon
+
+        >>>
+        >> from fontTools import ttLib
+        >> tt = ttLib.TTFont("afont.ttf") # Load an existing font file
+        >> tt['maxp'].numGlyphs
+        242
+        >> tt['OS/2'].achVendID
+        'B&H\000'
+        >> tt['head'].unitsPerEm
+        2048
+
+    For details of the objects returned when accessing each table, see :ref:`tables`.
+    To add a table to the font, use the :py:func:`newTable` function:
+    .. code-block:: pycon
+
+        >>>
+        >> os2 = newTable("OS/2")
+        >> os2.version = 4
+        >> # set other attributes
+        >> font["OS/2"] = os2
+
+    TrueType fonts can also be serialized to and from XML format (see also the
+    :ref:`ttx` binary):
+    .. code-block:: pycon
+
+        >>
+        >> tt.saveXML("afont.ttx")
+        Dumping 'LTSH' table...
+        Dumping 'OS/2' table...
+        [...]
+
+        >> tt2 = ttLib.TTFont() # Create a new font object
+        >> tt2.importXML("afont.ttx")
+        >> tt2['maxp'].numGlyphs
+        242
+
+    The TTFont object may be used as a context manager; this will cause the file
+    reader to be closed after the context ``with`` block is exited::
+
+            with TTFont(filename) as f:
+                    # Do stuff
+
+    Args:
+            file: When reading a font from disk, either a pathname pointing to a file,
+                    or a readable file object.
+            res_name_or_index: If running on a Macintosh, either a sfnt resource name or
+                    an sfnt resource index number. If the index number is zero, TTLib will
+                    autodetect whether the file is a flat file or a suitcase. (If it is a suitcase,
+                    only the first 'sfnt' resource will be read.)
+            sfntVersion (str): When constructing a font object from scratch, sets the four-byte
+                    sfnt magic number to be used. Defaults to ``\0\1\0\0`` (TrueType). To create
+                    an OpenType file, use ``OTTO``.
+            flavor (str): Set this to ``woff`` when creating a WOFF file or ``woff2`` for a WOFF2
+                    file.
+            checkChecksums (int): How checksum data should be treated. Default is 0
+                    (no checking). Set to 1 to check and warn on wrong checksums; set to 2 to
+                    raise an exception if any wrong checksums are found.
+            recalcBBoxes (bool): If true (the default), recalculates ``glyf``, ``CFF ``,
+                    ``head`` bounding box values and ``hhea``/``vhea`` min/max values on save.
+                    Also compiles the glyphs on importing, which saves memory consumption and
+                    time.
+            ignoreDecompileErrors (bool): If true, exceptions raised during table decompilation
+                    will be ignored, and the binary data will be returned for those tables instead.
+            recalcTimestamp (bool): If true (the default), sets the ``modified`` timestamp in
+                    the ``head`` table on save.
+            fontNumber (int): The index of the font in a TrueType Collection file.
+            lazy (bool): If lazy is set to True, many data structures are loaded lazily, upon
+                    access only. If it is set to False, many data structures are loaded immediately.
+                    The default is ``lazy=None`` which is somewhere in between.
