* src/truetype/ttobjs.c (trick_names): Add `DFGothic-EB',
`DFGyoSho-Lt', `DFHSGothic-W5', `DFHSMincho-W3' and `DFHSMincho-W7'.
(tt_check_trickyness_sfnt_ids): Add checksums for DFGothic-EB,
DFGyoSho-Lt, DFHSGothic-W5, DFHSMincho-W3 and DFHSMincho-W7. Also
add checksums for DLCLiShu and DLCHayBold which their family names
were already listed but their checksums were previously unknown.
We used to split large glyphs into horizontal bands and continue
bisecting them still horizontally if that was not enough. This is
guaranteed to fail when a single scanline cannot fit into the
rendering memory pool. Now we bisect the bands vertically so that
the smallest unit is a column of the band height, which is guranteed
to fit into memory.
* src/smooth/ftgrays.c (gray_convert_glyph): Implement it.
At large sizes almost but not exactly horizontal segments can quickly
drain the rendering pool. This patch at least avoids filling the pool
with trivial cells. Beyond this, we can only increase the pool size.
Reported, analyzed, and tested by Colin Fahey.
* src/smooth/ftgrays.c (gray_set_cell): Do not record trivial cells.
* src/base/ftobjs.c (FT_Load_Glyph): Tag tracing messages with
function name, glyph index, and load flags.
(FT_Select_Metrics, FT_Request_Metrics): Remove all tracing.
(FT_Select_Size, FT_Request_Size): Improve tracing.
* src/base/ftobjs.c (FT_New_Library): C4702: unreachable code.
(ft_glyphslot_preset_bitmap): C4244: possible loss of data.
* src/cff/cffload.c (cff_blend_doBlend): C4244: possible loss of data.
Turn `sum' into unsigned.
In runs on Noto Naskh Arabic, this results in 89 sets created
instead of 340 before. Makes auto-hinter setup with HarfBuzz
enabled 20% to 30% faster.
* src/autofit/afshaper.c (af_shaper_get_coverage): Implement it.
Implement property service in `type1' and `cid' drivers to allow
switching between FreeType or Adobe hinting engine when both are
available.
* src/cid/cidriver.c (cid_property_{set,get}, cid_services),
src/type1/t1driver.c (t1_property_{set,get}, t1_services): Add
Properties service.
* src/cid/cidobjs.c (cid_driver_init), src/type1/t1objs.c
(T1_Driver_Init): Add default property values.
This controls whether the old Type 1 engine gets compiled into FreeType.
It is disabled by default.
* devel/ftoption.h, include/freetype/config/ftoption.h
(T1_CONFIG_OPTION_OLD_ENGINE): New macro.
* include/freetype/internal/psaux.h (PS_Decoder): Remove unused field.
* include/freetype/internal/psaux.h, src/cid/cidgload.c
(cid_load_glyph), src/psaux/psauxmod.c, src/psaux/psobjs.c
(ps_builder_add_point), src/psaux/t1decode.c
(t1_lookup_glyph_by_stdcharcode, t1_decoder_parse_glyph,
t1operator_seac, t1_decoder_parse_charstrings), src/psaux/t1decode.h,
src/type1/t1gload.c (T1_Parse_Glyph_And_Get_Char_String): Surround
relevant code with macro.
Minor code changes.
Duplicate the fast advance width calculations from the old parser. This
is to facilitate adding options for compiling out the old parser.
* src/psaux/t1decode.{c,h} (t1_decoder_parse_metrics): New function.
* include/freetype/internal/psaux.h (T1_Decoder_Funcs): New entry
`parse_metrics'.
* src/psaux/psauxmod.c: Set the new entry.
* src/type1/t1gload.c (T1_Parse_Glyph_And_Get_Char_String),
src/cid/cidgload.c (cid_load_glyph): Separate
conditional for selecting engine.
This commit completely separates the interaction between named
instances and variation functions. In particular, resetting the
variation returns to the current named instance (if set) and not to
the base font.
As a side effect, variation functions no longer change the named
instance index.
* src/cff/cffobjs.c (cff_face_init): Use MM service's `set_instance'
function.
Also apply `MVAR' table to named instances.
* src/truetype/ttgxvar.c (TT_Get_MM_Var): Add cast.
(tt_set_mm_blend): No longer check whether requested variation
coincides with a named instance.
(TT_Set_Var_Design): Use current named instance for default
coordinates.
* src/truetype/ttobjs.c (tt_face_init): Use `TT_Set_Named_Instance'.
* include/freetype/internal/cfftypes.h (CFF_FontRec): Add
`font_extra' entry.
* src/cff/cffdrivr.c (cff_ps_get_font_extra): New function to
retrieve FSType info from the embedded PostScript data.
(cff_service_ps_info): Register function.
* src/cff/cffload.c (cff_font_done): Free `font_extra'.
* src/base/ftobjs.c (FT_Load_Glyph): Preset the bitmap metrics when
appropriate but `FT_Render_Glyph' is not called.
* include/freetype/freetype.h (FT_GlyphSlotRec): Document the change.
* src/raster/ftrend1.c (ft_raster1_render): Clean up the exit.
* src/smooth/ftsmooth.c (ft_smooth_render_generic): Reduce
translations and clean up the exit.
(ft_smooth_render_lcd, ft_smooth_render_lcd): Remove unused `error'..
This mainly just extracts the code for presetting the bitmap metrics
from the monochrome, grayscale, and LCD renderers into a separate
function.
* src/base/ftobjs.c (ft_glyphslot_preset_bitmap): New function that
calculates prespective bitmap metrics for the given rendering mode.
* include/freetype/internal/ftobjs.h (ft_glyphslot_preset_bitmap):
Declare it.
* src/base/ftlcdfil.c (ft_lcd_padding): New helper function that adds
padding to CBox taking into account pecularities of LCD rendering.
* include/freetype/ftlcdfil.h (ft_lcd_padding): Declare it.
* src/raster/ftrend1.c (ft_raster1_render): Reworked to use
`ft_glyphslot_preset_bitmap'.
* src/smooth/ftsmooth.c (ft_smooth_render_generic): Ditto.
(ft_smooth_render_lcd, ft_smooth_render_lcd): The pixel_mode setting
is moved to `ft_glyphslot_preset_bitmap'.
* include/freetype/internal/psaux.h, src/psaux/psobjs.{c,h}:
Rearrange `ps_builder_init' arguments to conventional order.
* src/psaux/psft.c (cf2_decoder_parse_charstrings): Add a check and
notice for `SubFont' in Type 1 mode.
As the former only contains a single procedure, move it into
`psobjs' for simplicity. Also change the parameter order to the
conventional one.
* src/psaux/psdecode.c (ps_decoder_init): Moved to...
* src/psaux/psobjs.c: ...Here.
* src/psaux/psdecode.h, src/psaux/psobjs.h: Ditto.
* include/freetype/internal/psaux.h (PSAux_ServiceRec): Update
`ps_decoder_init' function signature.
* src/cff/cffgload.c, src/cid/cidgload.c, src/type1/t1gload.c:
Update calls.
* src/psaux/psaux.c, src/psaux/psauxmod.c: Update includes.
* src/psaux/Jamfile (_sources), src/psaux/rules.mk (PSAUX_DRV_SRC):
Update file references.
Type 1 hinting breaks sometimes when mid-charstring hints should
have been in the initial hintmap. This fix adds a preprocessing
pass that reads all hints and builds the correct initial hintmap
first, before proceeding to build the glyph outline.
* src/psaux/psintrp.c (cf2_interpT2CharString): New
`initial_map_ready' boolean flag.
Ignore outline commands and hint changes on first pass.
<cf2_cmdENDCHAR>: Add section to build hintmap and rewind.
