For the development of HarfBuzz, the Microsoft shaping technology, Uniscribe, |
|
as a widely used and tested shaper is used as more-or-less OpenType reference |
|
implementation and that specially is important where OpenType specification |
|
is or wasn't that clear. For having access to Uniscribe on Linux/macOS these |
|
steps are recommended: |
|
|
|
1. Install Wine from your favorite package manager. |
|
|
|
2. And `mingw-w64` compiler. |
|
With `brew` on macOS, you can have it like `brew install mingw-w64` |
|
|
|
3. Download and put [this](https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B3_fQkxDZZXXbWltRGd5bjVrUDQ) |
|
on your `~/.local/i686-w64-mingw32`. |
|
|
|
4. Replace all the instances of `/home/behdad/.local/i586-mingw32msvc` |
|
and `/home/behdad/.local/i686-w64-mingw32` with `<$HOME>/.local/i686-w64-mingw32` |
|
on that folder. (`<$HOME>` replace it with `/home/XXX` or `/Users/XXX` on macOS) |
|
|
|
Probably you shouldn't replace the ones are inside binaries. |
|
|
|
5. `NOCONFIGURE=1 ./autogen.sh && mkdir winbuild && cd winbuild` |
|
|
|
6. `../mingw32.sh --with-uniscribe && cd ..` |
|
|
|
7. `make -Cwinbuild` |
|
|
|
Now you can use hb-shape using `wine winbuild/util/hb-shape.exe` but if you like to |
|
to use the original Uniscribe, |
|
|
|
8. Bring a 32bit version of `usp10.dll` for yourself from `C:\Windows\SysWOW64\usp10.dll` of your |
|
Windows installation (assuming you have a 64-bit installation, otherwise `C:\Windows\System32\usp10.dll`) |
|
that it is not a DirectWrite proxy ([for more info](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uniscribe)). |
|
Rule of thumb, your `usp10.dll` should have a size more than 500kb, otherwise |
|
it is designed to work with DirectWrite which Wine can't work with its original one. |
|
|
|
Put the dll on the folder you are going to run the next command, |
|
|
|
9. `WINEDLLOVERRIDES="usp10=n" wine winbuild/util/hb-shape.exe fontname.ttf -u 0061,0062,0063 --shaper=uniscribe` |
|
|
|
(`0061,0062,0063` means `abc`, use test/shaping/hb-unicode-decode to generate ones you need)
