This isn't the optimal solution yet, but it restores the previous
rendering quality (more or less).
* src/smooth/ftgrays.c (gray_render_conic): Do more splitting.
* src/smooth/ftsmooth.c (gray_render_conic): Since version 2.4.3,
cubic deviations have been estimated _after_ UPSCALE, whereas
conic ones have been evaluated _before_ UPSCALE, which produces
inferior rendering results. Fix this.
Partially undo change from 2010-10-15 by using ONE_PIXEL/4; this has
been tested with demo images sent to the mailing list. See
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/freetype-devel/2010-10/msg00055.html
and later mails in this thread.
FT_MAX_CURVE_DEVIATION is dependent on the value of ONE_PIXEL.
* src/smooth/ftgrays.c (FT_MAX_CURVE_DEVIATION): Remove it and
replace it everywhere with ONE_PIXEL/8.
This fixes the flattening of cubic, S-shaped curves and speeds up
the handling of both the conic and cubic arcs.
See the discussions on the freetype-devel mailing list in late
August and September 2010 for details.
* src/smooth/ftgrays.c (FT_MAX_CURVE_DEVIATION): New macro.
(TWorker): Remove `conic_level' and `cubic_level' elements.
(gray_render_conic): Simplify algorithm.
(gray_render_cubic): New algorithm; details are given in the code
comments.
(gray_convert_glyph): Remove heuristics.
* src/smooth/ftgrays.c (gray_render_span): Use cast to `unsigned
int' to avoid integer overflow.
* src/smooth/ftsmooth.c (ft_smooth_render_generic): Use smaller
threshold values for `width' and `height'. This is not directly
related to the bug fix but makes sense anyway.
Problems reported by suyu@cooee.cn.
* src/smooth/ftgrays.c (FT_DEFINE_OUTLINE_FUNCS,
FT_DEFINE_RASTER_FUNCS) [_STANDALONE_]: Define.
[!_STANDALONE_]: Include ftspic.h only here.
(ras): Define/declare after definition of `TWorker'.
Use `RAS_VAR_' where necessary.
* src/smooth/ftsmooth.h declare ft_smooth_renderer_class,
ft_smooth_lcd_renderer_class and ft_smooth_lcd_v_renderer_class
using macros from ftrender.h,
when FT_CONFIG_OPTION_PIC is defined create and destroy
functions will be declared.
* src/smooth/ftsmooth.c when FT_CONFIG_OPTION_PIC is defined
the following structs:
ft_smooth_renderer_class, ft_smooth_lcd_renderer_class
and ft_smooth_lcd_v_renderer_class
will have functions to init or create and destroy them
instead of being allocated in the global scope.
And macros will be used from ftspic.h in order to access
ft_grays_raster from the pic_container (allocated in ftgrays.c).
* src/smooth/ftgrays.h include FT_CONFIG_CONFIG_H
* src/smooth/ftgrays.c when FT_CONFIG_OPTION_PIC is NOT defined
func_interface was moved from gray_convert_glyph_inner function
to the global scope.
When FT_CONFIG_OPTION_PIC is defined
func_interface and ft_grays_raster structs
will have functions to init them
instead of being allocated in the global scope.
And func_interface will be allocated on the stack of
gray_convert_glyph_inner.
New Files:
* src/smooth/ftspic.h declare struct to hold PIC globals for smooth
renderer and macros to access them.
* src/smooth/ftspic.c implement functions to allocate, destroy and
initialize PIC globals for smooth renderer.
* src/smooth/smooth.c add new file to build: ftspic.c.
* src/smooth/jamfile add new files to FT2_MULTI build: ftspic.c.
src/smooth/ftgrays.c, src/base/ftobjc.s, src/sfobjs.c:
s/_Err_Bad_Argument/_Err_Invalid_Argument/. The former is for
errors in the bytecode interpreter only.
* include/freetype/internal/t1types.h (CID_FaceRec),
src/type42/t42types.h (T42_FaceRec): Comment out `afm_data'.
* src/smooth/ftgrays.c (gray_raster_render): Don't dereference
`target_map' if FT_RASTER_FLAG_DIRECT is set. Problem reported by
Stephan T. Lavavej <stl@nuwen.net>.
(FT_Outline_Decompose): Decorate with tracing messages.
* src/smooth/ftgrays.c [DEBUG_GRAYS]: Replace with
FT_DEBUG_LEVEL_TRACE.
[_STANDALONE_ && FT_DEBUG_LEVEL_TRACE]: Include stdio.h and
stdarg.h.
(FT_TRACE) [_STANDALONE_]: Remove.
(FT_Message) [_STANDALONE_ && FT_DEBUG_LEVEL_TRACE]: New function.
(FT_TRACE5, FT_TRACE7) [_STANDALONE_]: New macros.
(FT_ERROR) [_STANDALONE_]: Updated.
(gray_hline) [FT_DEBUG_LEVEL_TRACE]: Fix condition.
Use FT_TRACE7.
(gray_dump_cells): Make it `static void'.
(graay_convert_glyph): Use FT_TRACE7.
(FT_Outline_Decompose) [_STANDALONE_]: Synchronize with version in
ftoutln.c.
* src/base/ftadvanc.c (FT_Get_Advance, FT_Get_Advances): Use
FT_ERROR_BASE.
Other minor modifications.
encoded in UTF-16BE. Patch from Rajeev Pahuja <rpahuja@esri.com>.
(tt_name_entry_ascii_from_ucs4): Removed.
* include/freetype/ftxf86.h: Fix and extend comment so that it
appears in the documentation.
* include/freetype/ftchapters.h: Add `font_format' section.
* src/tools/docmaker/tohtml.py (HtmlFormatter::index_exit): Add link
to TOC in index page.
Formatting.
values which have the upper two bytes set to 0xFF instead of 0xFF
(as it happens in at least two CJKV fonts, `HAN NOM A.ttf' and
`HAN NOM B.ttf').
* src/smooth/ftgrays.c [GRAYS_USE_GAMMA]: Really remove all code.
Formatting.
