Overview of changes leading to 2.3.1
Wednesday, January 30, 2019
====================================
- AAT bug fixes.
- Misc internal housekeeping cleanup.
2.0.15:
Sam Lantinga - Fri Oct 26 13:26:54 PDT 2018
* Updated to FreeType version 2.9.1
Sam Lantinga - Sun Sep 10 00:18:45 PDT 2017
* Text rendering functions now use the alpha component of the text colors
Sam Lantinga - Sat Sep 9 22:21:55 PDT 2017
* Added support for characters greater than 0xFFFF (e.g. emoji) in the UTF-8 APIs
3.37.3:
- The previous release accidentally changed several files from Unix to DOS
line-endings. Fix that.
3.37.2:
- [varLib] Temporarily revert the fix to load_masters(), which caused a
crash in interpolate_layout() when deepcopy-ing OTFs.
3.37.1:
- [varLib] load_masters() now actually assigns the fonts it loads to the
source.font attributes.
- [varLib] Fixed an MVAR table generation crash when sparse masters were
involved.
- [voltLib] parse_coverage_() returns a tuple instead of an ast.Enum.
- [feaLib] A MarkClassDefinition inside a block is no longer doubly indented
compared to the rest of the block.
3.37.0:
- [svgLib] Added support for converting elliptical arcs to cubic bezier curves
- [py23] Added backport for math.isfinite.
- [varLib] Apply HIDDEN flag to fvar axis if designspace axis has attribute
hidden=1.
- Fixed "DeprecationWarning: invalid escape sequence" in Python 3.7.
- [voltLib] Fixed parsing glyph groups. Distinguish different PROCESS_MARKS.
Accept COMPONENT glyph type.
- [feaLib] Distinguish missing value and explicit <NULL> for PairPos2
format A. Round-trip useExtension keyword. Implemented
ValueRecord.asFea method.
- [subset] Insert empty widths into hdmx when retaining gids
## v2.7 (2019/01/24)
* Add new `ScaleAgain` feature for compounding scale factors.
(This is largely to support `unicode-math` but may be useful by others.)
* `\oldstylenums` no longer overwritten if `textcomp` loaded after
`fontspec`.
* More fixes for recent regressions (sorry!).
## v2.7a (2019/01/25)
* One last (?!) fix for recent regression (!!). I am not getting enough
sleep at the moment and it is too hot.
* Add `LocalForms=On/Off/Reset` to control the `locl` OpenType tag.
* Reorganise some documentation.
* Remove redundant redefinition of `\-` which is nowadays defined correctly
by the LaTeX2e kernel.
* Add code to remove the patching of verbatim commands and environments
when the new `\verbvisiblespace` command is defined in a future version
of LaTeX2e.
This version syncs the files with the ConTeXt files from2018/12/19. It
extends the mode key to allow the use of more fontloaders. It is the last
version which can be used with luatex 1.07. Future versions will need 1.09
and will be available only at the github site until texlive 2018 is freezed.
## v2.6k (2019/01/16)
* Fix crash when loading fonts that are missing a requested script.
## v2.6l (2019/01/18)
* REALLY fix crash when loading fonts that are missing a requested script.

- Fix regression on big-endian architectures. Ouch!
- Misc bug and build fixes.
- Fix subsetting of simple GSUB/GDEF.
- Merge CFF / CFF2 support contributed by Adobe. This mostly involves
the subsetter, but also get_glyph_extents on CFF fonts.
* Regenerate the fonts with current FontForge resolving
PDF/A compatibility problem.
* Use the same dual licensing as the original URW fonts, c.f.
<URL:http://www.tug.org/fonts/lppl-urw.txt>
Version: 1.109 2018-09-29:
- Improve Arabic math glyph considerably, they are much usable now.
- Add upright RTL integral alternates.
- Change ‘cv01’ feature for alternate Arabic math glyphs.
- Make the ‘hhea’ ascent/descent/line gap match the ‘OS/2’ typo metrics.
- Don’t set deprecated ForceBold in CFF Private dictionary.
- Fix script position with vertical bar on MS Word.
- Make vertical bar extensible in bold math font.
- Make MS Word linear fraction work better.
- Bundle WOFF fonts.
- Remove glyph overlap, some CFF rasterizers handle it badly.
- Fonts can be build with vanilla FontForge now.
- Builds are reproducible.
Version: 1.200 2018-10-02
This is the final release with new features; from now on XITS
is in maintenance mode and only bug fixes will be made.
Version: 1.200.1 2018-10-10
Drop WOFF fonts from tarball uploaded to CTAN, they break XeTeX.
Updates to TeX Gyre Adventor and Pagella in version 2.501:
* substantial extension of the repertoires by geometric, math and
technical symbols, in OTF, files stylistic feature ss10 (backward
compatibility with old math symbols) added, marks (anchors) implemented
* only one aggregate map (for each) is included for all encodings
* the contents of the source/fonts/tex-gyre/ directory changed; most
importantly, it contains source *.sfd files
* the relevant LaTeX files haven't been changed, they just got a new time
stamp
Version 1.55 adds support for the SticksToo text fonts (a reworking of
STIX2) as option stix2 to newtxmath. Along with this addition, there
are some important code differences concerning the treatment of
embedded Blackboard Bold alphabets, and, unique to the behavior under
stix2, the addition of the built-in DSSerif alphabet to the options for
Blackboard Bold alphabet.
3.36.0:
- [ttx] Added --no-recalc-timestamp option to keep the original font's
head.modified timestamp.
- [ttx/psCharStrings] Fixed issues while dumping and round-tripping CFF2 table
with ttx.
- [voltLib] Fixed check for duplicate anchors. Don't try to read past
the END operator in .vtp file.
- [varLib] Use sentinel value -0x8000 (-32768) to ignore post.underlineThickness
and post.underlinePosition when generating MVAR deltas.
- [subset] Added --retain-gids option to subset font without modifying the
current glyph indices.
- [ufoLib] Replace deprecated calls to getbytes and setbytes with new
equivalent readbytes and writebytes calls. fs >= 2.2 no required.
- [varLib] Allow loading masters from TTX files as well
3.35.2:
- [hmtx/vmtx]: Allow to compile/decompile hmtx and vmtx tables even
without the corresponding (required) metrics header tables, hhea and
vhea

stylename.
3.35.1:
- [_m_a_x_p] Include maxComponentElements in maxp table's recalculation.
3.35.0:
- [psCharStrings] In encodeFloat function, use float's "general format" with
8 digits of precision (i.e. %8g) instead of str(). This works around
a macOS rendering issue when real numbers in CFF table are too long, and
also makes sure that floats are encoded with the same precision in python 2.7
and 3.x.
- [_n_a_m_e/fontBuilder] Make _n_a_m_e_table.addMultilingualName also add
Macintosh (platformID=1) names by default. Added options to FontBuilder
setupNameTable method to optionally disable Macintosh or Windows names.
- [varLib] Make build optionally accept a DesignSpaceDocument object,
instead of a designspace file path. The caller can now set the font
attribute of designspace's sources to a TTFont object, thus allowing to
skip filenames manipulation altogether.
- [sfnt] Allow SFNTReader objects to be deep-copied.
- Require typing>=3.6.4 on py27 to fix issue with singledispatch.
- [designspaceLib/t1Lib/macRes] Fixed some cases where pathlib.Path objects were
not accepted.
- [varLib] Fixed merging of multiple PairPosFormat2 subtables.
- [varLib] The default STAT table version is now set to 1.1, to improve
compatibility with legacy applications
Spleen is a monospaced bitmap font available in 5 sizes:
5x8, 8x16, 12x24, 16x32 and 32x64.
fonts/spleen provides font files in the PCF format for use with X11.
3.34.2
- [merge] Fixed AssertionError when none of the script tables in GPOS/GSUB have
a DefaultLangSys record
3.34.1
- [varLib] Work around macOS rendering issue for composites without gvar entry
3.34.0:
- [varLib] Support generation of CFF2 variable fonts. model.reorderMasters()
now supports arbitrary mapping. Fix handling of overlapping ranges for feature
variations.
- [cffLib, subset] Code clean-up and fixing related to CFF2 support.
- [ttLib.tables.ttProgram] Use raw strings for regex patterns.
- [fontbuilder] Initial support for building CFF2 fonts. Set CFF's
FontMatrix automatically from unitsPerEm.
- [plistLib] Accept the more general collections.Mapping instead of the
specific dict class to support custom data classes that should serialize
to dictionaries.
Font Awesome gives you scalable vector icons that can instantly be customized -
size, color, drop shadow, and anything that can be done with the power of CSS.

A color and B&W emoji SVGinOT font built from the Twitter Emoji
for Everyone artwork with support for ZWJ, skin tone diversity and
country flags.
The font works in all operating systems, but will currently only
show color emoji in Firefox and Thunderbird. This is not a limitation
of the font, but of the operating systems and applications. Regular
B&W outline emoji are included for backwards/fallback compatibility.

with previous release.
- Fix extrapolation in 'trak' table.
- Fix hb-font infinite-recursion issue with some font funcs and
subclassed fonts.
- Implement variation-kerning format in kerx table, although without

- Fix return value of hb_map_is_empty().
Overview of changes leading to 2.0.0
Thursday, October 18, 2018
====================================
- Added AAT shaping support (morx/kerx/trak).
Automatically used if GSUB/GPOS are not available respectively.
Set HB_OPTIONS=aat env var to have morx/kerx preferred over
GSUB/GPOS.
- Apply TrueType kern table internally, instead of relying on
hb_font_t callbacks.
- Khmer shaper significantly rewritten to better match Uniscribe.
- Indic3 tags ('dev3', etc) are passed to USE shaper.
- .dfont Mac font containers implemented.
- Script- and language-mapping revamped to better use BCP 47.
- Misc USE and Indic fixes.
- Misc everything fixes.
- Too many things to list. Biggest release since 0.9.1, with
over 500 commits in just over 5 weeks! Didn't intend it to
be a big release. Just happened to become.
- hb-ft now locks underlying FT_Face during use.
API changes:
- Newly-created hb_font_t's now have our internal "hb-ot-font"
callbacks set on them, so they should work out of the box
without any callbacks set. If callbacks are set, everything
is back to what it was before, the fallback callbacks are
null. If you to get the internal implementation modified,
sub_font it.
- New hb_font_funcs_set_nominal_glyphs_func() allows speeding
up character to glyph mapping.
New API:

Overview of changes leading to 1.9.0
Monday, September 10, 2018
====================================
- Added 'cmap' API to hb_face_t.
- Face-builder API.
- hb-ot-font re-creation should be much leaner now, as the
font tables it uses are cached on hb_face_t now.
- Internal source header file name changes:
hb-*-private.hh is renamed to hb-*.hh.
New API:
+HB_UNICODE_MAX
+hb_face_collect_unicodes()
+hb_face_collect_variation_selectors()
+hb_face_collect_variation_unicodes()
+hb_face_builder_create()
+hb_face_builder_add_table()
3.32.0:
- [ufoLib] Make UFOWriter a subclass of UFOReader, and use mixins
for shared methods
- [featureVars] Fixed normalization error when a condition's minimum/maximum
attributes are missing in designspace <rule>
- [setup.py] Added [plot] to extras, to optionally install matplotlib,
needed to use the fonTools.varLib.plot module.
- [varLib] Take total bounding box into account when resolving model.
If multiple axes have the same range ratio, cut across both.
- [subset] Don't error if STAT has no AxisValue tables.
- [fontBuilder] Added a new submodule which contains a FontBuilder wrapper
class around TTFont that makes it easier to create a working TTF or OTF
font from scratch with code. NOTE: the API is still experimental and may
change in future versions.
3.31.0:
- [ufoLib] Merged the ufoLib <https://github.com/unified-font-objects/ufoLib>__
master branch into a new fontTools.ufoLib package
Moved ufoLib.pointPen module to fontTools.pens.pointPen.
Moved ufoLib.etree module to fontTools.misc.etree.
Moved ufoLib.plistlib module to fontTools.misc.plistlib.
To use the new fontTools.ufoLib module you need to install fonttools
with the [ufo] extra, or you can manually install the required additional
dependencies (cf. README.rst).
- [morx] Support AAT action type to insert glyphs and clean up compilation
of AAT action tables.
- [subset] The --no-hinting on a CFF font now also drops the optional
hinting keys in Private dict: ForceBold, LanguageGroup, and
ExpansionFactor
- [subset] Include nameIDs referenced by STAT table
- [loggingTools] Added msg=None argument to
CapturingLogHandler.assertRegex.
- [varLib.mutator] Implemented FeatureVariations instantiation
- [g_l_y_f] Added PointPen support to _TTGlyph objects
3.30.0:
- Skip building noop class PairPos subtables when Coverage is NULL
- Expose the previously reserved bit flag OVERLAP_SIMPLE of
glyf table's contour points in the TTX dump. This is used in some
implementations to specify a non-zero fill with overlapping contours.
- Added support for decompiling/compiling TS1C tables containing
VTT sources for cvar variation table.
- Use fontTools.designspaceLib to read DesignSpaceDocument. The
fontTools.varLib.designspace module is now deprecated and will be removed
in future versions. The presence of an explicit axes element is now
required in order to build a variable font.
- Implemented building GSUB FeatureVariations table from the rules
element of DesignSpace document
- Added --no-layout-closure option to not expand the subset with
the glyphs produced by OpenType layout features. Instead, OpenType features
will be subset to only rules that are relevant to the otherwise-specified
glyph setpy-fonttools: updated to 3.30.0
Besides native xorg+xorg sets, modular xorg, there is also
native xorg+no xorg sets, and apparently the build doesn't fail in
this case.
Reported by John D. Baker in pkgsrc-users.

0.11 2018-08-11 dmol@cpan.org
- Added FT_LOAD_COMPUTE_METRICS load flag (HinTak)
- Added face->foreach_glyph method for iterating over all glyphs
(some of them don't necessarily have a unicode point) (HinTak)
Overview of changes leading to 1.8.8
Tuesday, August 14, 2018
====================================
- Fix hb-icu crash on architectures where compare_exchange_weak() can
fail falsely. This bug was introduced in 1.8.4.
https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=873568
- More internal refactoring of atomic operations and singletons.
- API changes:
The following functions do NOT reference their return value before
returning:
* hb_unicode_funcs_get_default()
* hb_glib_get_unicode_funcs()
* hb_icu_get_unicode_funcs()
This is consistent with their naming ("get", instead of "reference")
as well as how they are used in the wild (ie. no one calls destroy()
on their return value.)
2018-08-10: Release 11.0.02
Adds Sutton SignWriting glyphs. Miscellaneous patches to other glyphs.
2018-06-05: Release 11.0.01
Update for Unicode 11.0.0 release. Modifications maintain complete
coverage of the Unicode Basic Multilingual Plane (BMP). Also includes
many Supplemental Multilingual Plane (SMP) scripts added in Unicode 11.0.
Notable in this release is the Unicode 11.0 addition of the Copyleft
symbol at code point U+01F12F. Because of its significance, this is
the only SMP glyph added to the Unicode TrueType BMP font. This glyph
also appears in the Unicode Upper TrueType font. BDF and PCF fonts
do not contain this symbol, as they only allow code points below U+10000.
2017-12-27: Release 10.0.07
Changes to allow cross-building from source. Now the top-level Makefile
and src/Makefile define INSTALL=install, rather than install C programs
with the "-s" (strip) option. This is part of a change requested by
Helmut Grohne to allow cross-architecture building without invoking
an architecture-specific "install -s". However, INSTALL still can
be defined on the top-level command line when make is invoked as
INSTALL="install -s" to allow stripping C binaries during installation
if desired. This definition from the top-level Makefile is passed down
to src/Makefile, which uses any command line definition when installing
C programs. Plain "install" is still used when installing Perl
programs.
Minor adjustments to glyphs as noted in the ChangeLog file.
2017-08-27: Release 10.0.06
Added numerous improvements to Unicode Plane 0 and Plane 1 scripts,
almost all of which were contributed by David Corbett; see the
ChangeLog file for details.
Made changes to make files contributed by Mike Gilbert to support
parallel make.
Fixed a corrupted ASCII hexadecimal string array in unifontpic.h.
2017-07-12: Release 10.0.05
This release positions Unicode double diacritic marks correctly
in the TrueType fonts. The previous release did not multiply
their offsets by the correct scale factor in FontForge.
The unifontpic chart title is also centered along the top row
legend, which looks better visually.
The Phonetic Extensions block has gone through major revision,
with minor adjustments in other Unicode scripts as described
in the ChangeLog file.
2017-07-08: Release 10.0.04
Added "-P" flag to the unifontpic utility to specify the Unicode
plane. This allows creating code charts for glyphs above Plane 0.
The Unicode plane is now added to the chart title. This works
properly for the wide and the long chart versions, with the
letters in the long version's chart title now single-spaced.
Received double-width Chinese ideographs to replace the quadruple-
width glyphs for Church Slavonic transliteration that were released
in Unifont 10.0.01. This allows a return to PNG charts of Unifont
glyphs. PNG files are smaller than the BMP version but the PNG
Unifont utilities have not been modified to handle quadruple-width
glyphs, whereas the BMP utilities have been. The 18 quadruple-width
Chinese glyphs are preserved in font/plane00/alt/quad-width.hex to
allow future experimentation.
The PNG charts of Unicode Plane 1 (Supplemental Multilingual Plane)
glyphs now use the Unifont "sample" version of Unifont ".hex" files,
so that combining circles appear. This was already being done for
Unicode Plane 0 and will look better in font sample pages.
Added new x-offset field to all *-combining.txt files to provide
proper rendering of Unicode double diacritic marks; they should
span across the preceding character and the following character.
Added support for this in hex2sfd for FontForge generation of
TrueType fonts. Also added support for this to the unigencircles
utility, so the combining circle of a double diacritic is printed
correctly in the left half of the glyph as in the Unicode
Consortium's code charts, rather than being centered. Several
applications are not rendering these double diacritic marks
correctly; releasing this version of Unifont will allow validation
of the new Unifont TrueType build, and could serve as a test font
for implementing these specialty Unicode characters in other
applications.
Redrew Musical Symbols Ornaments (U+01D194..U+01D1A5) so they
join together when used as a consecutive string of characters.
Adjusted the Byzantine Musical Symbols "ano", "meso", and "kato"
glyph versions for high, middle, and low vertical placement,
respectively.
Made numerous adjustments to many glyphs as noted in the ChangeLog
file, including re-coding some "subjoiner" glyphs as combining
characters instead of as non-printing. Those glyphs now render
a virama (halant) sign if a script contains such a sign, or a
"+" subscript sign otherwise.
2017-06-30: Release 10.0.03
Modified font/hex2sfd to reposition combining characters. If
you experience problems with the TrueType font in this release,
revert to 10.0.02.
2017-06-30: Release 10.0.02
Touched up glyphs in the block U+03xx, which includes modern Greek.
Fixed an Aiha glyph in the Private Use Area in the Unifont CSUR font.
2017-06-20: Release 10.0.01
Updated for Unicode 10.0 release.
New scripts added (introduced in Unicode 10.0):
- U+0860..U+086F Syriac Supplement
- U+011A00..U+011A4F Zanabazar Square
- U+011A50..U+011AAF Soyombo
- U+011D00..U+011D5F Masaram Gondi
Added quadruple-width glyphs U+9FD8..U+9FE9, updating some utility
programs and documentation to allow this change. The Perl scripts
unihex2png, unipng2hex, and unifont-viewer do not support this new
16-by-32 glyph size.
Corrected several glyphs and made numerous changes in others,
described in detail in the ChangeLog file.

Tuesday, July 3, 2018
====================================
- Fix infinite loop in Khmer shaper.
- Improve hb_blob_create_from_file() for streams.
3.29.0:
- [feaLib] In the OTL table builder, when the name table is excluded
from the list of tables to be build, skip compiling featureNames blocks,
as the records referenced in FeatureParams table don't exist.
- [otBase] Try ExtensionLookup if other offset-overflow methods fail.
- [feaLib] Added support for explicit subtable; break statements in
PairPos lookups; previously these were ignored.
- [cffLib.specializer] Make sure the stack depth does not exceed maxstack - 1,
so that a subroutinizer can insert subroutine calls.
- [otTables] Added support for fixing offset overflow errors occurring inside
MarkBasePos subtables.

3.28.0:
- [featureVars] Added experimental module to build FeatureVariations
tables. Still needs to be hooked up to varLib.build
- [fixedTools] Added otRound to round floats to nearest integer towards
positive Infinity. This is now used where we deal with visual data like X/Y
coordinates, advance widths/heights, variation deltas, and similar
- [subset] Improved GSUB closure memoize algorithm.
- [varLib.models] Fixed regression in model resolution
- [feaLib.ast] Fixed error when converting SubtableStatement to string

post.italicAngle based on the 'wght', 'wdth' and 'slnt' axis values
- [py23/loggingTools] Don't automatically set logging.lastResort handler
on py27. Moved LastResortLogger to the loggingTools module
Performing substitutions during post-patch breaks tools such as mkpatches,
making it very difficult to regenerate correct patches after making changes,
and often leading to substituted string replacements being committed.
The Culmus project aims at providing the Hebrew-speaking GNU/Linux
and Unix community with a basic collection of Hebrew fonts for X
Windows. Presently the collection contains fifteen font families

are normally addressed via macros \mathcal, \mathbb, \mathfrak
and \mathscr), offering various features normally missing in
existing packages for this job.
Version 1.11 of XCharter includes new Greek math alphabets that match the
size and style of Charter. These are used to construct the
Greek math glyphs when using the charter option to newtxmath (version 1.53
or later.)
* New version that will go on TeX Live 2018.
* kanji-config-updmap: Multiple language mode options (--ja, --sc etc.)
can be specified at the same time.
* Fix README; mention TLContrib for macOS-specific font maps.
3.26.0:

with statements to auto-close the file when exiting the context
* otf.sty: Scale Japanese fonts using \Cjascale if defined.
Support jsreport.cls in jsclasses.
* ajmacros.sty: Add \NeedsTeXFormat{pLaTeX2e} to avoid infinite loop.
- v2.6g (2017-11-09)
* Bugfix for clash introduced with last version. When loading `babel`
before `fontspec` the following error arose:
! Control sequence \latinencoding already defined.
- v2.6f (2017-11-05)
* Fix loading of Graphite fonts and add a little documentation
(a better interface is needed, though)
* Correct and simplify some internal code that fixes a bug in the
way some fonts are displayed in `\tracingoutput` mode.
* This also fixes an obscure bug using the API in which a query for
a selected font feature would test against the upright font in the
current family regardless of the face/shape actually in use.
* This package now complies with the `expl3` option `check-declarations`.
Changes from 0.3.3:
* Extended-size fonts, useful for overheads
* \FEYN macro
* spacing adjustments
* added missing propagators
* now released under the terms of the 2-clause BSD licence.
3.25.0:
[varLib] Improved support-resolution algorithm. Previously, the on-axis masters would always cut the space. They don’t anymore. That’s more consistent, and fixes the main issue Erik showed at TYPO Labs 2017. Any varfont built that had an unusual master configuration will change when rebuilt
[varLib.models] Added a main() entry point, that takes positions and prints model results.
[varLib.plot] Added new module to plot a designspace’s VariationModel. Requires matplotlib.
[varLib.mutator] Added -o option to specify output file path
[otTables] Fixed IndexError while pruning of HVAR pre-write
[varLib.models] Convert delta array to floats if values overflows signed short integer
anything depending on fontconfig does too. Add it to buildlink3.mk.
This is a high-impact change to commit during the freeze, but seems both
correct and necessary, and has wiz@'s OK.
The buildlink3.mk should be included for OSes _except_ Darwin.
The proper fix for this would be to have a devel/libuuid/builtin.mk that
detects builtinness.
Finally we have made new stable release, 2.13.0 here. summaries for
changes since last stable release of 2.12.6 are:
- Improve the footprint on cache creation
- emoji/math fonts support
- variable fonts support
- config file description support
- allow sharing caches with bind-mounted dirs
- bug fixes
Overview of changes leading to 1.7.6
Wednesday, March 7, 2018
====================================
- Fix to hb_set_t binary operations. Ouch.
- New experimental harfbuzz-subset library. All of hb-subset.h
is experimental right now and API WILL change.
- New API:
hb_blob_copy_writable_or_fail()
HB_OT_TAG_BASE
hb_set_previous()
hb_set_previous_range()
3.24.1:
[varLib] Don't remap the same DeviceTable twice in VarStore optimizer.
[varLib] Add --disable-iup option to fonttools varLib script, and a optimize=True keyword argument to varLib.build function, to optionally disable IUP optimization while building varfonts.
[ttCollection] Fixed issue while decompiling ttc with python3
Alan Coopersmith (1):
mkfontscale 1.1.3
Emil Velikov (1):
autogen.sh: use quoted string variables
Jeremy Huddleston Sequoia (1):
mkfontscale: Avoid a buffer underrun
Mihail Konev (1):
autogen: add default patch prefix
Peter Hutterer (1):
autogen.sh: use exec instead of waiting for configure to finish
Stefan Dirsch (1):
fix handling of Type1 fonts without /FamilyName and/or /FullName
3.24.0:
[ttGlyphPen] Decompose composite glyphs if any components' transform is too large to fit a F2Dot14 value, or clamp transform values that are (almost) equal to +2.0 to make them fit and avoid decomposing.
[ttx] Added new -g option to dump glyphs from the glyf table splitted as individual ttx files.
Copied ufoLib.filenames module to fontTools.misc.filenames, used for the ttx split-glyphs option .
[feaLib] Added support for cvParameters blocks in Character Variant feautures cv01-cv99.
[Snippets] Added checksum.py script to generate/check SHA1 hash of ttx files.
[varLib.mutator] Fixed issue while instantiating some variable fonts whereby the horizontal advance width computed from gvar phantom points could turn up to be negative.
[varLib/subset] Fixed issue with subsetting GPOS variation data not picking up ValueRecord Device objects (54fd71f).
[feaLib/voltLib] In all AST elements, the location is no longer a required positional argument, but an optional kewyord argument (defaults to None). This will make it easier to construct feature AST from code
3.23.0:
[designspaceLib] Added an optional lib element to the designspace as a whole, as well as to the instance elements, to store arbitrary data in a property list dictionary, similar to the UFO’s lib. Added an optional font attribute to the SourceDescriptor, to allow operating on in-memory font objects.
[cffLib] Fixed issue with lazy-loading of attributes when attempting to set the CFF TopDict.Encoding.
[ttx] Fixed regression introduced in 3.22.0 that affected the split tables -s option.
[feaLib] Added IncludedFeaNotFound custom exception subclass, raised when an included feature file cannot be found.
[otTables] Changed VarIdxMap to use glyph names internally instead of glyph indexes. The old ttx dumps of HVAR/VVAR tables that contain indexes can still be imported.
[varLib] Implemented VarStore optimizer.
[subset] Implemented pruning of GDEF VarStore, HVAR and MVAR.
[sfnt] Restore backward compatiblity with numFonts attribute of SFNTReader object.
[merge] Initial support for merging LangSysRecords.
[ttCollection] don’t seek(0) when writing to possibly unseekable strems.
[subset] Keep all --name-IDs from 0 to 6 by default.
[cffLib] Added width module to calculate optimal CFF default and nominal glyph widths.
[varLib] Don’t fail if STAT already in the master fonts

- [ttLib] Added new ttCollection module to read/write TrueType and
OpenType Collections. Exports a TTCollection class with a fonts
attribute containing a list of TTFont instances, the methods save
and saveXML, plus some list-like methods. The importXML method is
not implemented yet.
- [unicodeadata] Added ot_tag_to_script function that converts from
OpenType script tag to Unicode script code.
- Added new designspaceLib subpackage, originally from Erik Van Blokland's
designSpaceDocument: https://github.com/LettError/designSpaceDocument
NOTE: this is not yet used internally by varLib, and the API may be subject
to changes.
- Added new FontTools icon images.
- [unicodedata] Added script_horizontal_direction function that returns
either "LTR" or "RTL" given a unicode script code.

Overview of changes leading to 1.7.4
Wednesday, December 20, 2017
====================================
- Fix collect_glyphs() regression caused by hb_set_t changes.
Overview of changes leading to 1.7.3
Monday, December 18, 2017
====================================
- hb_set_t performance tuning and optimizations.
- Speed up collect_glyphs() and reject garbage data.
- In hb_coretext_font_create() set font point-size (ptem).
- Misc fixes.
Overview of changes leading to 1.7.2
Monday, December 4, 2017
====================================
- Optimize hb_set_add_range().
- Misc fixes.
- New API:
hb_coretext_font_create()
The actual fix as been done by "pkglint -F */*/buildlink3.mk", and was
reviewed manually.
There are some .include lines that still are indented with zero spaces
although the surrounding .if is indented. This is existing practice.
Unsorted entries in PLIST files have generated a pkglint warning for at
least 12 years. Somewhat more recently, pkglint has learned to sort
PLIST files automatically. Since pkglint 5.4.23, the sorting is only
done in obvious, simple cases. These have been applied by running:
pkglint -Cnone,PLIST -Wnone,plist-sort -r -F
3.21.0:
[cmap] when compiling format6 subtable, don't assume gid0 is always called '.notdef'.
[ot] Allow decompiling fonts with bad Coverage format number.
Change FontTools licence to MIT.
[post] Prune extra names already in standard Mac set.
[subset] Delete empty SubrsIndex after subsetting.
[varLib] Don't share points in cvar by default, as it currently fails on some browsers.
[afmLib] Make poor old afmLib work on python3.
3.20.1:
[unicodedata] Fixed issue with script and script_extension functions returning inconsistent short vs long names. They both return the short four- letter script codes now. Added script_name and script_code functions to look up the long human-readable script name from the script code, and viceversa.
3.20.0:
[unicodedata] Addded new module fontTools.unicodedata which exports the same interface as the built-in unicodedata module, with the addition of a few functions that are missing from the latter, such as script, script_extension and block. Added a MetaTools/buildUCD.py script to download and parse data files from the Unicode Character Database and generate python modules containing lists of ranges and property values.
[feaLib] Added __str__ method to all ast elements.
[feaLib] Parser constructor now accepts a glyphNames iterable instead of glyphMap dict. The latter still works but with a pending deprecation warning.
[bezierTools] Added arc length calculation functions originally from pens.perimeterPen module.
[varLib] Started generating STAT table (8af4309). Right now it just reflects the axes, and even that with certain limitations: * AxisOrdering is set to the order axes are defined, * Name-table entries are not shared with fvar.
[py23] Added backports for redirect_stdout and redirect_stderr context managers.
[Graphite] Fixed some round-trip bugs

30 Oct 2017 (Eben Sorkin) Merriweather v2.002
Made first Variable font version with the Roman. Italic is not generating yet.
General
Fixed interpolation issues in Both Roman and italic.
Quotes ‘“”’ made clearer.
‹›«» made less wide and more typical
All dashes and math symbols: heights corrected.
¿ ? adjusted to be somewhat less distinctive
all 10 arrows → now included
Diacritic anchor positions made common across family
Combining Diacritics centered on zero widths
Diacritic design generally improved and Vietnamese diacritics made so they are not made from composites (properly designed) and so they won’t be clipped.
File efficiency gained from forcing all glyphs that should made only from composites to do so.
Clunky spacing and design for in some Currency glyphs corrected
Lining Figures Added
Zero slash added
Non standard use of composites (flipped shapes) corrected
Missing Latin glyphs added
Total Glyph count in Roman and Italic made to match.
Open Type code added: aalt, ccmp, locl, sups, numr, dnom, frac, ordn, lnum, onum, case, liga, zero, cpsp
Added the Published (circle P) symbol
OpenType Features: Update code for more languages
Fractions: Improved and added limited support for inferior or subscript numbers
Weight Scale: Altered instance weights across roman and italic so nominal weights appear more even; italics are still slightly lighter, but less contrast with roman
Symbols: Made all styles share reference glyphs for copyright, registered and published symbols
Added Gawker/Elizabeth Style curling quotes, dollar and question mark and mediumBlackSquare (uni25FC) to a Stylistic set (ss01)
Language
Latin: Found and upgraded all non-combining diacritics to combining, and all combining now have zero width
Cyrillic: Found and fixed many side-bearing problems
Vietnamese: Fixed diacritics and the glyphs they are used for, as well as the o and u horns
Technology
OTF: Improved blue zones for PS OTFs
Italic specific fixes
Missing Cyrillic glyphs in Italic added
Fixed denominator and fraction glyphs
Corrected weight inconsistency in Currency Glyphs
2 Feb 2017 (Marc Foley) Merriweather v2.001
Fixed interpolation issues in Italic
17 Jan 2017 (Marc Foley) Merriweather v2.000
Added CrystalType Vietnamese extension
Added Alexieva Cyrillic extension
Updated font metadata
This release imports the libXfont 1.x BDF-reading and PCF-writing code,
as this program is the only known user of that code and libXfont 1.x is
otherwise unmaintained. No functional difference should be apparent,
this is just another step towards eliminating the old version of
libXfont from the world.
