II. MISCELLANEOUS
II. IMPORTANT CHANGES
- The automatic and postscript hinters have both been updated. This
results in a relatively important increase of rendering quality since

for additional details on this topic.
- The "load_flags" parameter of FT_Load_Glyph is now an FT_Int32
(instead of just being an FT_Int). This breaks source and binary
compatibility for 16bit systems only, while retaining both of them for
32 and 64 bit ones.
Some new flags have been added consequently:
FT_LOAD_NO_AUTOHINT :: Disable the use of the auto-hinter
(but not native format hinters).
FT_LOAD_TARGET_NORMAL :: Hint and render for normal anti-aliased
displays.
FT_LOAD_TARGET_MONO :: Hint and render for 1-bit displays.
FT_LOAD_TARGET_LCD :: Hint and render for horizontal RGB or BGR
sub-pixel displays (like LCD screens).
THIS IS STILL EXPERIMENTAL!
FT_LOAD_TARGET_LCD_V :: Same as FT_LOAD_TARGET_LCD, for vertical
sub-pixel displays (like rotated LCD
screens). THIS IS STILL EXPERIMENTAL!
FT_LOAD_MONOCHROME is still supported, but only affects rendering, not
the hinting.
Note that the 'ftview' demo program available in the 'ft2demos' package
has been updated to support LCD-optimized display on non-paletted
displays (under Win32 and X11)
- The cache API has been slightly modified (it's still a beta after all!!):
- the type FTC_ImageDesc has been removed, it is now replaced by
FTC_ImageTypeRec. Note that one of its fields is a 'load_flag'
parameter for FT_Load_Glyph
- the field "num_grays" of FT_SBitRec has been changed to "max_grays"
in order to fit within a single byte. Its maximum value is thus 255
(instead of 256 as previously)
III. MISCELLANEOUS
- Added support for the DESTDIR variable during "make install". This
simplifies packaging of FreeType.
