My working directory d:\Works\Python\ has a package 'fitz' looks like this:

....fitz\
........__init__.py
........fitz.py
........utils.py
........_fitz.pyd

There is a statement in fitz.py:
....return importlib.import_module('fitz._fitz')

It works fine under Python 3.4 interpreter:

import fitz

But under Python 3.8 I get an exception:

import fitz

Traceback(...
...
...
ImportError: DLL load failed while importing _fitz

I work under Windows7 64bit with Python 32bit. Can anyone help?

The Python C-API is Python version dependent.
Your `_fitz.pyd` may need to be recreated for Python 3.8.

It seems that I have to install pymupdf to use fitz. Thank you.
