* include/freetype/config/ftoption.h, src/gzip/ftgzip.c: added
support for the FT_CONFIG_OPTION_SYSTEM_ZLIB option, used to specify
the use of system-wide zlib.
Note that this macro, as well as FT_CONFIG_OPTION_BYTECODE_INTERPRETER,
is not #undef-ed anymore. This allows the build system to define them
depending on the configuration (typically by adding -D flags at
compile time).
* src/sfnt/ttcmap0.c (tt_face_build_cmaps): removed compiler warnings
in optimized mode relative to the "volatile" local variables. This was
not a compiler bug after all, but the fact that a pointer to a volatile
variable is not the same than a volatile pointer to a variable :-)
the fix was to change "volatile FT_Byte* p"
into "FT_Byte* volatile p"
* src/pfr/pfrload.c, src/pfr/pfrdrivr.c, src/gzip/inftrees.c: removed
compiler warnings in optimized modes
* src/gzip/*.[hc]: modified our ZLib copy in order to prevent exporting
any zlib function names outside of the component. This prevents linking
problems on some platforms, when applications want to link FreeType
_and_ ZLib together.

* src/psaux/psobjs.c (ps_table_add): modified increment loop in
order to implement exponential behaviour
src/base/ftpfr.c, src/base/Jamfile, src/descrip.mms, src/rules.mk,
src/pfr/pfrdrivr.c, src/pfr/pfrobjs.c, src/pfr/pfsobjs.h:
added PFR-specific public API. Fixed the kerning retrievel routine
(it returned invalid values when the outline and metrics resolution
differ)
* src/base/ftsynth.c: fixed the synthetic emboldener. at last.
* src/base/ftobjs.c: small internal fix to better support
bitmap-based font formats
src/pfr/pfrgload.c, src/pfr/pfrobjs.c, src/pfr/pfrtypes.h,
Jamfile, src/base/ftobjs.c: adding support for embedded bitmaps to
the PFR driver, and rewriting its kerning loader / handler to use all
kerning pairs in a physical font (and not just the first item).
* src/tools/docmaker/content.py, src/tools/docmaker/sources.py,
src/tools/docmaker/tohtml.py: fixing a few nasty bugs
* src/sfnt/ttcmap0.c: the validator for format 4 sub-tables is
now capable of dealing with invalid "length" fields at the start
of the sub-table. This allows fonts like "mg______.ttf" (i.e.
Marriage) to return accurate charmaps.
* src/autohint/ahtypes.h: disabling metrics hinting in the auto-hinter.
this produces much better anti-aliased text
2002-09-25 Anthony Fok <anthony@thizlinux.com>
* src/sfnt/ttcmap0.c: added support for opens___.ttf (it contains
a charmap that uses offset=0xFFFFU instead of 0x0000 to indicate a
missing glyph)
include/freetype/ftstroker.h, include/freetype/ftsysio.h,
include/freetype/ftsysmem.h, include/freetype/ttnameid.h:
updating the in-source documentation
* src/tools/docmaker/tohtml.py: updating the HTML formatter in the
DocMaker tool
* src/tools/docmaker.py: removing obsolete file
debug mode of template instantiation
* src/cff/cffparse.c: fixed the CFF table loader. It didn't accept
empty arrays, and this prevented the loading of certain fonts.
* src/pshinter/pshalgo2.c, src/pshinter/pshalgo3.c: adding fix to
prevent seg fault when hints are provided in an empty glyph !!
* include/freetype/ftimage.h: removed incorrect "zft_" definitions
and updated constants documentation comments
* include/freetype/freetype.h (FT_FaceRec): updating documentation
comment. The "descender" value is always *negative*, not positive !
include/freetype/config/ftmodule.h: updated to correctly support
sub-pixel rendering
* include/freetype/cache/ftcimage.h, include/freetype/cache/ftcsbits.h,
src/cache/ftcimage.c, src/cache/ftcsbit.c: updated to support sub-pixel
rendering correctly. Definition of FTC_ImageTypeRec that replaces the
obsolete FTC_ImageDesc, and has slightly different fields. The
image type is now determined directly by "load_flags" values.
* src/autohint/ahtypes.h, src/autohint/ahhint.c,
src/pshinter/pshalgo3.c, src/pshinter/pshalgo3.h: various enhancements
to the automatic and Postscript hinters !! and sub-pixel hinting now
works correctly (see demo programs)
ft_encoding_symbol to be FT_ENCODING_MS_SYMBOL (instead of
the erroneous FT_ENCODING_SYMBOL)
* builds/unix/unix-def.in: added "datadir" definition
(thanks to Anthony Fok)
to slightly increase the contrast of smooth hinting. This is very similar
to what the auto-hinter does when it comes to stem width computations.
However, it produces better results with well-hinted fonts..
want to list them all here. The operations performed were all logical
transformations of the sources:
- trying to convert all enums and constants to CAPITALIZED_STYLE, with
#define definitions like
#define my_old_constants MY_NEW_CONSTANT
- big, big update of the documentation comments
* include/freetype/freetype.h, src/base/ftobjs.c, src/smooth/ftsmooth.c,
include/freetype/ftimage.h: adding support for LCD-optimized rendering
though the new constants/enums:
FT_RENDER_MODE_LCD, FT_RENDER_MODE_LCD_V
FT_PIXEL_MODE_LCD, FT_PIXEL_MODE_LCD_V
this is still work in progress, don't expect everything to work correctly
though most of the features have been implemented.
* adding new FT_LOAD_XXX flags, used to specify both hinting and rendering
targets:
FT_LOAD_TARGET_NORMAL :: anti-aliased hinting & rendering
FT_LOAD_TARGET_MONO :: monochrome bitmaps
FT_LOAD_TARGET_LCD :: horizontal RGB/BGR decimated hinting & rendering
FT_LOAD_TARGET_LCD_V :: vertical RGB/BGR decimated hinting & rendering
note that FT_LOAD_TARGET_NORMAL is 0, which means that the default
behaviour of the font engine is _unchanged_.
a problem with the handling of the deprecated version of the Type 2
endchar command, that emulates Type 1 'seac'.
This version now works with the GhostScript-to-FreeType bridge
currently under development.
of the "load_flags" parameter of FT_Load_Glyph and FT_Load_Char from
"FT_Int" to "FT_Int32", this in order to support more options.
this should only break binary and/or source compatibility on
16-bit platforms (Atari?)
src/autohint/ahangles.h, src/autohint/ahglyph.c, src/autohint/ahhint.c,
src/autohint/ahtypes.h: the automatic and Postscript hinter now
automatically detect inflection points in glyph outlines and treats
them specially. This is very useful to prevent nasty effect like the
disappearing diagonals of "S" and "s" in many, many fonts..
