3.43.1 (released 2019-06-19)
- [subset] Fixed regression when passing --flavor=woff2 option with an input font
that was already compressed as WOFF 1.0
3.43.0 (released 2019-06-18)
- [woff2] Added support for compressing/decompressing WOFF2 fonts with non-transformed
glyf and loca tables, as well as with transformed hmtx table.
Removed Snippets/woff2_compress.py and Snippets/woff2_decompress.py scripts,
and replaced them with a new console entry point fonttools ttLib.woff2
that provides two sub-commands compress and decompress.
- [varLib.cff] Fixed bug when merging CFF2 PrivateDicts. The PrivateDict
data from the first region font was incorrecty used for all subsequent fonts.
The bug would only affect variable CFF2 fonts with hinting
Also, fixed a merging bug when VF masters have no blends or marking glyphs

rogue kerning values and variations for random classes against class zero (everything
not otherwise classed).
- [varLib] Fixed merging GPOS tables from master fonts with different number of
SinglePos subtables
- [unicodedata] Updated Blocks, Scripts and ScriptExtensions to Unicode 12.1.

OK kamil@
2019-06-01: Release 12.1.02
* Adds a Japanese version of Unifont, unifont_jp, containing
kanji glyphs from the public domain Jiskan16 font.
* Contains redrawn Devanagari and Bengali glyphs with
narrower consonants for better superimposing of vowels.
* Updated unibmp2hex.c to convert RGB color space files to
monochrome.
librsvg with pango and harfbuzz with graphite2 is required for libreoffice.
librsvg-c has the problem on NetBSD and libreoffice uses internal static
harfbuzz library. Rust-based librsvg has no problem and libreoffice use
dynamic harfbuzz from fonts/harfbuzz.
Bump PKGREVISIONs.
2019-05-11: Release 12.1.01
* This release adds the new Reiwa Japanese era sign, added in
Unicode 12.1.0.
* Elizabeth Bettencourt contributed many Under ConScript Unicode
Registry (UCSUR) scripts for the Plane 0 Private Use Area.
* Some adjustments were made to Nandinagari and Nyiakeng Puachue
Hmong scripts. Full details are in the ChangeLog file.
* Minor changes to source code, mainly to suppress warnings
on more systems.
- use only standard NFSS codes for width and weight in fd files
- create $TEXMFHOME when it doesn't exist (but only if $TEXMFLOCAL
isn't user-writable, since that's still the default output tree)
- in manual mode, put all generated files into a subdir "autoinst_output/",
instead of all over the current dir
- add 'auto' value to the -inferiors option; autoinst will use
whatever inferior characters the font contains
- more relevant logfiles
- better mapping of NFSS codes to actual fonts
- new command-line options to fine-tune that mapping even further
- handle fonts who put small caps into separate families
- improved handling of Titling fonts
- don't add f-ligatures to typewriter fonts
Changes in ot2kpx:
- kerning data can now also be output as a Luatex custom font feature, for
use with \directlua.
Supports standard NFSS series codes. New macros for localized use of
non-default weights and figure styles.
Support for LGR encoding.
Condensed fonts now accessible using standard c series codes.
20190410:
Kpathsea: More consistent brace expansion and path splitting; new variable TEXMFDOTDIR instead of hard-coded . in paths allows for easily searching additional or sub-directories (see comments in texmf.cnf).
epTEX, eupTEX: New primitives \readpapersizespecial and \expanded.
LuaTEX: Lua 5.3 now used, with concomitant arithmetic and interface changes. The homegrown library pplib is used to read pdf files, thus eliminating the dependency on poppler (and the need for C++); Lua interface changed accordingly.
MetaPost: r-mpost command name recognized as an alias for invocation with the –restricted option, and added to the list of restricted commands available by default. Minimum precision now 2 for decimal and binary mode. Binary mode no longer available in MPlib but still available in standalone MetaPost.
pdfTEX: New primitive \expanded; if new primitive parameter \pdfomitcharset is set to 1, the /CharSet string omitted from the PDF output, since it cannot feasibly be guaranteed correct, as required by PDF/A-2 and PDF/A-3.
XeTEX: New primitives \expanded, \creationdate, \elapsedtime, \filedump, \filemoddate, \filesize, \resettimer, \normaldeviate, \uniformdeviate, \randomseed; extend \Ucharcat to produce active characters.
tlmgr: Support curl as a download program; use lz4 and gzip before xz for local backups, if available; prefer system-provided binaries over binaries provided with TEX Live for compressor and download programs, unless the environment variable TEXLIVE_PREFER_OWN is set.
install-tl: New option -gui (with no argument) is the default on Windows and Macs, and invokes a new Tcl/TK GUI (see sections 1.3 and 3.1.6).
Utilities:
cwebbin (https://ctan.org/pkg/cwebbin) is now the CWEB implementation in TEX Live, with support for more language dialects, and including the ctwill program to make mini-indexes.
chkdvifont: report font information from DVI files, also from tfm/ofm, vf, gf, pk.
dvispc: make a DVI file page-independent with respect to specials.
MacTEX: x86_64-darwin now supports 10.12 and higher (Sierra, High Sierra, Mojave); x86_64-darwinlegacy still supports 10.6 and newer. The spell checker Excalibur is no longer included, since it requires 32-bit support.
Platforms: removed sparc-solaris.
2.95
In contradiction to the last announcement this version of the fontloader
is still compatible with luatex 1.07. So updates will continue. This
version syncs the files with the ConTeXt files from 2019-01-28. It
improves the handling of the lucida fonts - the demi font is now used as
bold. The resolver code has been cleaned up a bit.
2.96
- In version 2.95 letterspacing was broken due to a change in the
fontloader. In version 2.96 this is now repaired. At the same time a
number of long-standing oddities and bugs in the letterspacing has been
corrected. This can change the output of existing documents!! See the
documentation for more information and ways to restore the old behaviour,
- A problem with the detection of bold fonts has been corrected (issue 41,
pull request 42).
- The fontloader has been synced with the context files from 2019-02-14.
* Fix regression in loading `Language=Turkish`. This now allows users
to define more than one OpenType tag when defining a language name,
where the first tag found is the one selected for the font. E.g.,
\newfontlanguage{Turkish}{TRK,TUR}
when selected, this first checks for the existance of the TRK
language tag, and if not found then checks for the TUR language tag
to use if available.
* Add new `Renderer` options for LuaTeX that enable the Harfbuzz
engine. These only work running under `luahbtex` and are currently
experimental. The new options are `Harfbuzz`, `OpenType`, `AAT`, and
`Graphite`.
* Always try to remove ‘clashing’ font features inside
`\addfontfeatures` even in cases when the requested font feature
doesn't exist. E.g., now if a font is loaded with `Numbers=OldStyle`
and *doesn't have* `Numbers=Lining`, requesting the latter will still
re!set the former.
* Add `pxfonts`, `txfonts`, `newpxmath`, `newtxmath`, `mtpro2` to the
list of packages that automatically invoke `no-math`.
* Add `\providefontfamily`, `\setfontface`, `\renewfontface`, and
`\providefontface`.
* Add local/global distinction with `\fontspec_(g)set_family:Nnn` and
`\fontspec_(g)set_fontface:NNnn`.
* Use fonts.mk framework
Changelog:
00401: (2019-04)

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.

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

* 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
- [varLib] Added support for localized axes' labelname and named instances'
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.
