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)

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
style continuation lines to be simple repeated
MASTER_SITES+= site1
MASTER_SITES+= site2

Overview of changes leading to 1.4.0
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:
New API:
HB_OT_LAYOUT_NO_VARIATIONS_INDEX
hb_ot_layout_table_find_feature_variations()
hb_ot_layout_feature_with_variations_get_lookups()
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.

* Added partial subscript and superscript: all digits and 11 letters.
* Added 30+ math characters, notably large braces, brackets and parens.

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).

for automatic configuration
The installed version of this library was found and used instead of the
one build by the package, leading to problems when the pkgsrc one had
symbols the native one doesn't have. Add libtool path to compiler
search path to fix this.

Overview of changes leading to 1.2.7
Monday, May 2, 2016
====================================
- Blacklist another version of Times New Roman (Bold) Italic from Windows 7.
- Fix Mongolian Free Variation Selectors shaping with certain fonts.
- Fix Tibetan shorthand contractions shaping.
- Improved list of language tag mappings.
- Unbreak build on Windows CE.
- Make 'glyf' table loading lazy in hb-ot-font.
Oxygen Font is a project to design a desktop/gui font for integrated
use with the KDE desktop.
The basic concept for Oxygen Font is to design a clear, legible, sans
serif font which would be rendered with Freetype on Linux-based
devices. In addition a bold weight, plus regular and bold italics, and
a monospace version will be made.
Friday, April 8, 2016
====================================
- Blacklist GDEF table of another set of Times New Roman (Bold) Italic.
- DirectWrite backend improvements. Note: DirectWrite backend is
exclusively for our internal testing and should NOT be used in any
production system whatsoever.
Overview of changes leading to 1.2.5
Monday, April 4, 2016
====================================
- Fix GDEF mark-filtering-set, which was broken in 1.2.3.
Overview of changes leading to 1.2.4
Thursday, March 17, 2016
====================================
- Synthesize GDEF glyph class for any glyph that does not have one in GDEF.
I really hope we don't discover broken fonts that shape badly with this
change.
- Misc build and other minor fixes.
- API changes:
- Added HB_NDEBUG. It's fine for production systems to define this to
disable high-overhead debugging checks. However, I also reduced the
overhead of those checks, so it's a non-issue right now. You can
forget it. Just not defining anything at all is fine.
--------------
1.05 (r1069, 2015-01-26)
* Add support for GSUB Type 8 Reverse-chaining substitution
* OpenType script/lang/feature tags now based on ISO/IEC 14496-22
* Remove deprecated GDL_old.pm
*
* Bug fixes:
* Fix rt.cpan.org 92150, 93597
* Force 0xFFFF sentry to be in a segment by itself in format 4 cmap subtables
* Less aggressive cmap format 4 optimization to eliminate USV holes
* Fix various issues reading WOFF-compressed font tables
* Fix reading DSIG
the symptom being that ftttdrv.h (from freetype2) is not found. It
turns out that native X11 doesn't install ftttdrv.h for some reason
(probably an oversight) but that the lack is easily compensated
because the whole file contains only two substantive lines, neither of
which appears to be especially important.
PR 50902.
Overview of changes leading to 1.2.3
Thursday, February 25, 2016
====================================
- Blacklist GDEF table of certain versions of Times New Roman (Bold) Italic,
due to bug in glyph class of ASCII double-quote character. This should
address "regression" introduced in 1.2.0 when we switched mark zeroing
in most shapers from BY_UNICODE_LATE to BY_GDEF_LATE.
This fourth release in a week should finally stablize things...
- hb-ot-font's get_glyph() implementation saw some optimizations. Though,
might be really hard to measure in real-world situations.
- Also, two rather small API changes:
We now disable some time-consuming internal bookkeeping if built with NDEBUG
defined. This is a first time that we use NDEBUG to disable debug code. If
there exist production systems that do NOT want to enable NDEBUG, please let
me know and I'll add HB_NDEBUG.
Added get_nominal_glyph() and get_variation_glyph() instead of get_glyph()
New API:
- hb_font_get_nominal_glyph_func_t
- hb_font_get_variation_glyph_func_t
- hb_font_funcs_set_nominal_glyph_func()
- hb_font_funcs_set_variation_glyph_func()
- hb_font_get_nominal_glyph()
- hb_font_get_variation_glyph()
Deprecated API:
- hb_font_get_glyph_func_t
- hb_font_funcs_set_glyph_func()
Clients that implement their own font-funcs are encouraged to replace
their get_glyph() implementation with a get_nominal_glyph() and
get_variation_glyph() pair. The variation version can assume that
variation_selector argument is not zero. Old (deprecated) functions
will continue working indefinitely using internal gymnastics; it is
just more efficient to use the new functions.
Overview of changes leading to 1.2.2
Wednesday, February 24, 2016
====================================
- Fix regression with mark positioning with fonts that have
non-zero mark advances. This was introduced in 1.2.0 while
trying to make mark and cursive attachments to work together.
I have partially reverted that, so this version is much more
like what we had before. All clients who updated to 1.2.0
should update to this version.
Overview of changes leading to 1.2.1
Tuesday, February 23, 2016
====================================
- CoreText: Fix bug with wrong scale if font scale was changed later.
https://github.com/libass/libass/issues/212
- CoreText: Drastically speed up font initialization.
- CoreText: Fix tiny leak.
- Group ZWJ/ZWNJ with previous syllable under cluster-level=0.
https://github.com/behdad/harfbuzz/issues/217
- Add test/shaping/README.md about how to add tests to the suite.
Overview of changes leading to 1.2.0
Friday, February 19, 2016
====================================
- Fix various issues (hangs mostly) in case of memory allocation failure.
- Change mark zeroing types of most shapers from BY_UNICODE_LATE to
BY_GDEF_LATE. This seems to be what Uniscribe does.
- Change mark zeroing of USE shaper from NONE to BY_GDEF_EARLY. That's
what Windows does.
- Allow GPOS cursive connection on marks, and fix the interaction with
mark attachment. This work resulted in some changes to how mark
attachments work. See:
https://github.com/behdad/harfbuzz/issues/21186c68c7a2c
- Graphite2 shaper: improved negative advance handling (eg. Nastaliq).
- Add nmake-based build system for Windows.
- Minor speedup.
- Misc. improvements.
The font families PT Sans and PT Serif were released in 2009-2010
with an open user license. The main aim of the project is to allow
the peoples of Russia to read and write in their native languages.
The project is dedicated to the 300-year anniversary of the civil
type invented by Peter the Great in 1708-1710 and was realized with
financial support from the Federal Agency for Press and Mass
Communications.
The fonts, beside the standard Western, Central European and Cyrillic
code pages, also contain characters of all title languages of the
Russian Federation.
2.0.14:
Ryan Gordon - Fri Jan 29 12:53:29 PST 2016
* Deprecated TTF_GetFontKerningSize() which takes font glyph indices
and added TTF_GetFontKerningSizeGlyphs() which takes characters

Code New Roman is aimed for use in programming environments and
other circumstances where a monospaced font is specified. All
characters have the same width, like old typewriters, making it a
good choice for programmers. This font improved and target to Mac
OS Western New Roman, MONACO, Windows Consolas/Lusida Consolas,
ABeeZee and Bitstream Vera Sans Mono.This font display allowed a
design with proportions closer to normal text than traditional
monospaced fonts like Courier. This allows for more comfortably
reading of extended text on screen. OpenType features include
hanging or lining numerals; slashed, dotted and normal zeros; and
alternative shapes for a number of lower-case letters. The look of
text can be tuned to personal taste by varying the number of bars
and waves.
The design of Cutive, and this monospace sister family Cutive Mono,
is based on a number of classic typewriter typefaces, in particular
the faces of IBM's 'Executive,' and the older 'Smith-Premier.' In
Cutive these old faces re-emerge as webfonts that are useful for
adding character to body texts as well as in larger sizes for
headers and display.
Programming languages are limited to relatively few characters. As
a result, combined character operators surfaced quite early, such
as the widely used arrow (->), comprised of a hyphen and greater
sign. It looks like an arrow if you know the analogy and squint a
bit.
Composite glyphs are problematic in languages such as Haskell which
utilize these complicated operators (=> -< >>= etc.) extensively.
The readability of such complex code improves with pretty printing.
Academic articles featuring Haskell code often use lhs2tex to
achieve an appealing rendering, but it is of no use when programming.
Some Haskellers have resorted to Unicode symbols, which are valid
in the ghc. However they are one-character-wide and therefore
eye-strainingly small. Furthermore, when displayed as substitutes
to the underlying multi-character representation, as vim2hs does,
the characters go out of alignment.
Hasklig solves the problem the way typographers have always solved
ill-fitting characters which co-occur often: ligatures. The underlying
code stays the same - only the representation changes. Not only
can multi-character glyphs be rendered more vividly, other problematic
things in monospaced fonts, such as spacing can be corrected.
Fira Code is a Fira Mono font extended with a set of ligatures for
common programming multi-character combinations. This is just a
font rendering feature: underlying code remains ASCII-compatible.
This helps to read and understand code faster. For some frequent
sequences like .. or // ligatures allow us to correct spacing.
Office Code Pro is a customized version of Source Code Pro, the
monospaced sans serif originally created by Paul D. Hunt for Adobe
Systems Incorporated. The customizations were made specifically
for text editors and coding environments, but are still very usable
in other applications.

Overview of changes leading to 1.1.2
Wednesday, November 26, 2015
====================================
- Fix badly-broken fallback shaper that affected terminology.
https://github.com/behdad/harfbuzz/issues/187
- Fix y_scaling in Graphite shaper.
- API changes:
* An unset glyph_h_origin() function in font-funcs now (sensibly)
implies horizontal origin at 0,0. Ie, the nil callback returns
true instead of false. As such, implementations that have a
glyph_h_origin() that simply returns true, can remove that function
with HarfBuzz >= 1.1.2. This results in a tiny speedup.
The find-prefix infrastructure was required in a pkgviews world where
packages installed from pkgsrc could have different installation
prefixes, and this was a way for a dependency prefix to be determined.
Now that pkgviews has been removed there is no longer any need for the
overhead of this infrastructure. Instead we use BUILDLINK_PREFIX.pkg
for dependencies pulled in via buildlink, or LOCALBASE/PREFIX where the
dependency is coming from pkgsrc.
Provides a reasonable performance win due to the reduction of `pkg_info
-qp` calls, some of which were redundant anyway as they were duplicating
the same information provided by BUILDLINK_PREFIX.pkg.
Overview of changes leading to 1.1.0
Wednesday, November 18, 2015
====================================
- Implement 'stch' stretch feature for Syriac Abbreviation Mark.
https://github.com/behdad/harfbuzz/issues/141
- Disable use of decompose_compatibility() callback.
- Implement "shaping" of various Unicode space characters, even
if the font does not support them.
https://github.com/behdad/harfbuzz/issues/153
- If font does not support U+2011 NO-BREAK HYPHEN, fallback to
U+2010 HYPHEN.
- Changes resulting from libFuzzer continuous fuzzing:
* Reject font tables that need more than 8 edits,
* Bound buffer growth during shaping to 32x,
* Fix assertions and other issues at OOM / buffer max-growth.
- Misc fixes and optimizations.
- API changes:
* All fonts created with hb_font_create() now inherit from
(ie. have parent) hb_font_get_empty().
Overview of changes leading to 1.0.6
Thursday, October 15, 2015
====================================
- Reduce max nesting level in OT lookups from 8 to 6.
Should not affect any real font as far as I know.
- Fix memory access issue in ot-font.
- Revert default load-flags of fonts created using hb_ft_font_create()
back to FT_LOAD_DEFAULT|FT_LOAD_NO_HINTING. This was changed in
last release (1.0.5), but caused major issues, so revert.
https://github.com/behdad/harfbuzz/issues/143
Overview of changes leading to 1.0.5
Tuesday, October 13, 2015
====================================
- Fix multiple memory access bugs discovered using libFuzzer.
https://github.com/behdad/harfbuzz/issues/139
Everyone should upgrade to this version as soon as possible.
We now have continuous fuzzing set up, to avoid issues like
these creeping in again.
- Misc fixes.
- New API:
* hb_font_set_parent().
* hb_ft_font_[sg]et_load_flags()
The default flags for fonts created using hb_ft_font_create()
has changed to default to FT_LOAD_DEFAULT now. Previously it
was defaulting to FT_LOAD_DFEAULT|FT_LOAD_NO_HINTING.
- API changes:
* Fonts now default to units-per-EM as their scale, instead of 0.
* hb_font_create_sub_font() does NOT make parent font immutable
anymore. hb_font_make_immutable() does.
pkgsrc changes (no functional changes intended):
o unset USE_LANGUAGES
o use NO_BUILD instead of defining an empty do-build target

- Hack Open Font license updated to version 2.0. The license changes better
define the Hack project as a derivative project of the Bitstream Vera Sans
Mono typeface project and are intended to make the license more consistent
with the Bitstream Vera libre, open source license under which Hack is
co-licensed. There are no new restrictions on use of the fonts with these
license changes. Embedding permissions are made explicit in this version
of the Hack Open Font license.

"This restriction only applies to the primary font name as presented to the
users." to address a reserved font name conflict with the Bitstream Vera
license
- Modified the build directory structure for the Hack web fonts
- Added Hack webfont CSS files to the build directory
GNU Unifont is an official GNU package. It is a dual-width
(8x16/16x16) bitmap font, designed to provide coverage for all of
Unicode Plane 0, the Basic Multilingual Plane (BMP).
GNU Unifont has a glyph for each visible code point in the Unicode
Basic Multilingual Plane (Plane 0) and some glyphs in the Supplemental
Multilingual Plane (Plane 1). This version also includes many
glyphs in Michael Everson's ConScript Unicode Registry (CSUR).
Unifont only provides a single glyph for each character, making it
impossible to handle any language properly that needs context-dependent
character shaping. It is supplied in the form of a hex file, with
a converter to convert it to BDF. See http://czyborra.com/unifont/
or http://unifoundry.com/unifont.html for more information. The
BDF font is converted to PCF, and the hex file is converted to a
TrueType font.
