0.6.4 (2017-10-03) : The "TeXnical Boost" release
=====
- Use package versioning based on Git snapshot.
- Fix LaTeX familydefault upon switching between scripts.
(Thanks Abhabongse Janthong for the pull request.)
- Add LaTeX option for font scaling.
(Thanks Abhabongse Janthong for another pull request.)
* Re-enable use of `HyphenChar=None` in LuaLaTeX. (Hyphenation and font
choice are decoupled in LuaTeX, except for this one setting.)
* Some internal changes needed by `unicode-math` to fix some cross-over
code.
This update corrects the behavior of the package under XeLaTeX and
LuaLaTeX when using libertine with newtxmath. It now behaves as the
documentation describes.
3.17.0:
- [svgPathPen] Added an ``SVGPathPen`` that translates segment pen commands
into SVG path descriptions. Copied from Tal Leming's ``ufo2svg.svgPathPen``
https://github.com/typesupply/ufo2svg/blob/d69f992/Lib/ufo2svg/svgPathPen.py
- [reverseContourPen] Added ``ReverseContourPen``, a filter pen that draws
contours with the winding direction reversed, while keeping the starting
point.
- [filterPen] Added ``ContourFilterPen`` to manipulate contours as a whole
rather than segment by segment.
- [arrayTools] Added ``Vector`` class to apply math operations on an array
of numbers, and ``pairwise`` function to loop over pairs of items in an
iterable.
- [varLib] Added support for building and interpolation of ``cvar`` table
3.16.0:
[head] Try using SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH environment variable when setting the head modified timestamp to ensure reproducible builds.
[VTT] Decode VTT’s TSI* tables text as UTF-8.
Added support for Graphite font tables: Feat, Glat, Gloc, Silf and Sill.
[varLib] Default to using axis “name” attribute if “labelname” element is missing.
[merge] Added support for merging Script records. Remove unused features and lookups after merge.
Added fontTools.svgLib package. Includes a parser for SVG Paths that supports the Pen protocol. Also, added a snippet to convert SVG outlines to UFO GLIF.
[AAT] Added support for ankr, bsln, mort, morx, gcid, and cidg.
[subset] Implemented subsetting of prop, opbd, bsln, lcar.
I did not notice the package already existed in fonts/py-fonttools. This
package is now updated to the latest version available (3.15.1).
Thanks joerg@ for the heads-up.
Changelog for this release:
- [otConverters] Implemented ``__add__`` and ``__radd__`` methods on
``otConverters._LazyList`` that decompile a lazy list before adding
it to another list or ``_LazyList`` instance. Fixes an ``AttributeError``
in the ``subset`` module when attempting to sum ``_LazyList`` objects
(6ef48bd2, 1aef1683).
- [AAT] Support the `opbd` table with optical bounds (a47f6588).
- [AAT] Support `prop` table with glyph properties (d05617b4).
fontTools is a library for manipulating fonts, written in Python. The project
includes the TTX tool, that can convert TrueType and OpenType fonts to and from
an XML text format, which is also called TTX. It supports TrueType, OpenType,
AFM and to an extent Type 1 and some Mac-specific formats. The project has a
BSD-style open-source licence.

Overview of changes leading to 1.5.1
Tuesday, September 5, 2017
====================================
- Fix "unsafe-to-break" in fallback shaping and other corner cases.
All our tests pass with --verify now, meaning unsafe-to-break API
works as expected.
- Add --unicodes to hb-view / hb-shape.
- [indic] Treat Consonant_With_Stacker as consonant. This will need
further tweaking.
- hb_buffer_diff() tweaks.
Overview of changes leading to 1.5.0
Wednesday, August 23, 2017
====================================
- Misc new API, for appending a buffer to another, and for comparing
contents of two buffers for types of differences.
- New "unsafe-to-break" API. Can be used to speed up reshaping
in line-breaking situations. Essentially, after shaping, it returns
positions in the input string (some of the cluster boundaries) that
are "safe to break" in that if the text is segmented at that position
and two sides reshaped and concatenated, the shaping result is
exactly the same as shaping the text in one piece.
hb-view and hb-shape and hb-shape now take --verify, which verifies
the above property.
Some corner cases of the implementation are still not quite working.
Those will be fixed in subsequent releases.
- New API:
hb_buffer_append()
hb_glyph_flags_t
HB_GLYPH_FLAG_UNSAFE_TO_BREAK
HB_GLYPH_FLAG_DEFINED
hb_glyph_info_get_glyph_flags()
HB_BUFFER_SERIALIZE_FLAG_GLYPH_FLAGS
hb_buffer_diff_flags_t
HB_BUFFER_DIFF_FLAG_EQUAL
HB_BUFFER_DIFF_FLAG_CONTENT_TYPE_MISMATCH
HB_BUFFER_DIFF_FLAG_LENGTH_MISMATCH
HB_BUFFER_DIFF_FLAG_NOTDEF_PRESENT
HB_BUFFER_DIFF_FLAG_DOTTED_CIRCLE_PRESENT
HB_BUFFER_DIFF_FLAG_CODEPOINT_MISMATCH
HB_BUFFER_DIFF_FLAG_CLUSTER_MISMATCH
HB_BUFFER_DIFF_FLAG_GLYPH_FLAGS_MISMATCH
HB_BUFFER_DIFF_FLAG_POSITION_MISMATCH
hb_buffer_diff
Interface started out in late 2016 as an experiment to build a
perfectly pixel-fitting font at a specific small size. The
idea was that by crafting a font in a particular way, with a
particular coordinate system (Units Per EM), and for a particular
target rasterization size (11), it would be possible to get the
best of both sharpness and readability.
However after a few months of using an early version of Interface,
it dawned on everyone exposed to the test that this approach had
some serious real-world problems. Most notably that it was really
hard to read longer text. Because of the pixel-aligning nature of
that approach, the font took an almost mono-spaced appearance,
making it really easy to read numbers, punctuation and very short
words, but eye-straining to read anything longer.
The project was rebooted with a different approach, sticking with
the specific UPM, but crafting glyphs and kerning in a way that
made for more variation in the rhythm and smoother vertical and
horizontal stems.
XCharter 1.09 adds Cyrillic glyphs from Andrey Panov's Khartiya, along
with Cyrillic small caps, additional figures styles (numerators,
denominators and inferiors). It also adds slanted versions of the Roman
and Bold styles.
Version 1.091 corrects errors in the fd files that were introduced in
version 1.09.
- v2.6b (2017/07/16)
* Fix conflict with Polyglossia and `Scale=MatchLowercase`.
* New feature `IgnoreFontspecFile` to avoid loading the `.fontspec`
file for a font.
* Fix regression with `\fontspec_if_feature:nTF`
(which broke `realscripts`, oops — must improve my test suite)
Overview of changes leading to 1.4.8
Tuesday, August 8, 2017
====================================
- Major fix to avar table handling.
- Rename hb-shape --show-message to --trace.
- Build fixes.
Overview of changes leading to 1.4.7
Tuesday, July 18, 2017
====================================

Junicode (short for Junius-Unicode) is a Unicode font for medievalists.
The current version is a beta; the selection of characters and the
arrangement of the Private Use Area are subject to change.
Junicode contains 3280 characters in the regular style (the italic,
bold and bold italic styles are less complete). These Unicode ranges
are either complete in the regular style or they contain substantial
numbers of glyphs (especially those of interest to medievalists).
MASTER_SITES= site1 \
site2

Thursday, January 5, 2017
====================================
- Merged "OpenType GX" branch which adds core of support for
OpenType 1.8 Font Variations. To that extent, the relevant
new API is:
New API:
hb_font_set_var_coords_normalized()
with supporting API:

hb_shape_plan_create2()
hb_shape_plan_create_cached2()
Currently variations in GSUB/GPOS/GDEF are fully supported,
and no other tables are supported. In particular, fvar/avar
are NOT supported, hence the hb_font_set_var_coords_normalized()
taking normalized coordinates. API to take design coordinates
will be added in the future.
HVAR/VVAR/MVAR support will also be added to hb-ot-font in the
future.
- Fix regression in GDEF glyph class processing.
- Add decompositions for Chakma, Limbu, and Balinese in USE shaper.

A family of high-quality WGL4 TrueType fonts, created by the Bigelow
& Holmes type foundry specifically for the Go project.
The font family, called Go (naturally), includes proportional- and
fixed-width faces in normal, bold, and italic renderings. The fonts
have been tested for technical uses, particularly programming. Go
source code looks particularly good when displayed in Go fonts, as
its name implies, with things like punctuation characters easily
distinguishable and operators lined up and placed consistently.
Merriweather is a workhorse text type family made specifically for
screens. Print use is not a significant consideration in the design.
Merriweather is useful for Latin, Arabic, Cyrillic and Greek. The
styles include Regular, Bold, Italic and Bold Italic.
2016-10-29 Paul Hardy <unifoundry@unifoundry.com>
* Version: 9.0.04.
* font/plane00/unifont-base.hex:
- Extended "{" and "}" by one pixel to add a point in the center.
- Swapped U+2A05 and U+2A06; they were in reverse order.
* Added omitted ChangeLog entry for Unifont 9.0.03 for the addition
of Pikto glyphs to font/plane0Fcsur/plane0Fcsur.hex.
21 October 2016 Release (Unifont 9.0.03): This release updates some glyphs and adds these ConScript Unicode Registry (CSUR) scripts:
U+E8E0..U+E8F4 Tonal System, a base 16 system for counting, weights, and measures invented by John William Nystrom, a 19th-century civil engineer. Drawn by Paul Hardy.
U+F8C8 Aiha, by Ursula K. Le Guin, added the Aiha double combining glyph. This was omitted in the original CSUR Aiha description. Drawn by Paul Hardy.
U+0F0E70..U+0F11E7 Pikto, a pictographic Constructed Language ("ConLang") created by John E. Williams in the 1950s.
The addition of the Pikto script is the main change in this version. Andrew Miller scanned the Pikto pictographs from John Williams' Pikto book. Paul Hardy and Johnnie Weaver drew the Unifont Pikto glyphs. A detailed chart of these glyphs and their meanings is on the (very large, about 1 Mbyte!) Pikto page.
The Tonal System is a comprehensive base 16 counting and measuring system devised during the nascense of the international effort to standardize on a decimal system of measurement. A Tonal System overview appears on this Tonal page.
The large bitmap linked at the top of this page now includes the Plane 0 CSUR glyphs.
Lato is a sans-serif typeface family designed in the Summer 2010 by
Warsaw-based designer Lukasz Dziedzic ("Lato" means "Summer" in
Polish). In December 2010 the Lato family was published under the
open-source Open Font License by his foundry tyPoland, with support
from Google.
In 2013-2014, the family was greatly extended to cover 3000+ glyphs
per style. The Lato 2.010 family now supports 100+ Latin-based
languages, 50+ Cyrillic-based languages as well as Greek and IPA
phonetics. In the process, the metrics and kerning of the family
have been revised and four additional weights were created.
Raleway is an elegant sans-serif typeface family.
Initially designed by Matt McInerney as a single thin weight, it
was expanded into a 9 weight family by Pablo Impallari and Rodrigo
Fuenzalida in 2012 and iKerned by Igino Marini. In 2013 the Italics
where added.
It is a display face and the download features both old style and
lining numerals, standard and discretionary ligatures, a pretty
complete set of diacritics, as well as a stylistic alternate inspired
by more geometric sans-serif typefaces than its neo-grotesque
inspired default character set.
Use the main webpage tarball, which also includes CJK and Emoji
in hinted versions.
Changes: many more characters, covers all of Unicode, it claims,
and switched license to ofl-v1.1 (from apache-2.0).
