==========================
Tag sources with `VER-2-3-10'.
* builds/toplevel.mk (major, minor, patch): Fix regexp to allow more
than a single digit.
(dist): We now use git.
* docs/VERSION.DLL: Update documentation and bump version number to
2.3.10.
* README, Jamfile (RefDoc), builds/win32/visualc/index.html,
builds/win32/visualc/freetype.dsp,
builds/win32/visualc/freetype.vcproj,
builds/win32/visualce/index.html,
builds/win32/visualce/freetype.dsp,
builds/win32/visualce/freetype.vcproj: s/2.3.9/2.3.10/, s/239/2310/.
* include/freetype/freetype.h (FREETYPE_PATCH): Set to 10.
* builds/unix/configure.raw (version_info): Set to 9:21:3.
This was broken since version 2.3.0.
* src/raster/ftraster.c (count_table): Use pre-2.3.0 values (which
were then computed dynamically).
(Vertical_Gray_Sweep_Step): Updated.
(ft_black_render): Initialize `worker->gray_lines' (problem found by
valgrind).
(FT_RASTER_OPTION_ANTI_ALIASING, DEBUG_RASTER): Dont' #undef, just
comment out.
The calculation of `vertBearingX' is not defined in the OTF font
spec so FreeType does a `best effort' attempt. However, this value
is defined in the PDF and PostScript specs, and that algorithm is
better than the one FreeType currently uses:
FreeType: Use the middle of the bounding box as the X coordinate
of the vertical origin.
Adobe PDF spec: Use the middle of the horizontal advance vector as
the X coordinate of the vertical origin.
FreeType's algorithm goes wrong if you have a really small glyph
(like the full-width, circle-like dot at the end of the sentence, as
used in CJK scripts) with large bearings. With the FreeType
algorithm this dot gets centered on the baseline; with the PDF
algorithm it gets the correct location (in the top right). Note
that this is a serious issue, it's like printing the dot at the end
of a Roman sentence at the center of the textline instead of on the
baseline like it should. So i believe the PDF spec's algorithm
should be used in FreeType as well.
The `vertBearingY' value for such small glyphs is also very strange
if no `vmtx' information is present, since the height of the bbox is
not representable for the height of the glyph visually (the
whitespace up to the baseline is part of the glyph). The fix also
includes some code for a better estimate of `vertBearingY'.
* src/base/ftobjs.c (ft_synthesize_vertical_metrics): `vertBearingX'
is now calculated as described by the Adobe PDF Spec. Estimate for
`vertBearingY' now works better for small glyphs completely above or
below the baseline into account.
* src/cff/cffgload.c (cff_slot_load): `vertBearingX' is now
calculated as described by the Adobe PDF Spec. Vertical metrics
information was always ignored when FT_CONFIG_OPTION_OLD_INTERNALS
was not defined.
* src/truetype/ttgload.c (compute_glyph_metrics): `vertBearingX' is
now calculated as described by the Adobe PDF Spec.
* include/freetype/internal/t1types.h (T1_EncodingRecRec_): Update
comment to reflect revised code_last meaning.
* src/type1/t1load.c (T1_Open_Face), src/type42/t42objs.c
(T42_Open_Face): Assign max_char as highest character code + 1 and
use this for T1_EncodingRecRec_::code_last.
* src/psaux/t1cmap.c (t1_cmap_custom_init): Follow revised
T1_EncodingRecRec_::code_last meaning.
This function was originally added to return the underlying font
format in a way which was compatible with the needs of the XFree86
font server. However, a function of this sort is also necessary when
freetype is used by PDF interpreters which apply different rules
based on the font format.
The X11 namespace is confusing for such users. This commit ameliorates
that confusion by documenting that this function is in fact entirely
internal to freetype and doesn't depend on X11 in any way.
Bug reported by Ivan Nincic <inincic@pdftron.com>.
* src/cff/cffgload.c (cff_slot_load): Thinko: Check `xx' element of
`font_matrix' also.
* docs/CHANGES: Updated.
