FDKReleaseNotes.txt =============================================================================== FDK v2.5 May 1 2009 change number 21898. autohint - Fixed rare case when an rrcurveto is preceded by such a long list of rlineto's that the stack limit is passed. - Fixed to restore font.pfa output file to StandardEncoding Encoding vector. Since requirements of CFF StandardEncoding differs from Type1 StandardEncoding, a StandardEncoding Encoding vector in a Type 1 font was somtines getting converted to a custom Encoding vecotr when being round-tripped through the CFF format whcih autohint does internally. checkOutlines. - Fixed random crash on Windows due to buffer overrun. - Fixed rare case when an rrcurveto is preceded by such a long list of rlineto's that the stack limit is passed. - changed default logging mode to not report glyph names when there is no error report for the glyph. - Fixed to restore font.pfa output file to StandardEncoding Encoding vector. Since requirements of CFF StandardEncoding differs from Type1 StandardEncoding, a StandardEncoding Encoding vector in a Type 1 font was somtines getting converted to a custom Encoding vecotr when being round-tripped through the CFF format which checkOutlines does internally when editing a font. CompareFamily. - added "ring" to the list of accent names used to find (accented glyph, base glyph) pairs for "Single Face Test 23: Warn if any accented glyphs have a width different than the base glyph." Reported by David Agg. showfont/fontplot2 - Renamed showfont to fontplot2 to avoid conflict with the Mac OSX showfont tool. - Fixed problem with showing vertical origin and advance: was not using VORG and vmtx table correctly. Instance Generator/FontLab scripts. Generating instance fonts from MM fonts. - Added logic to support eliminating "working" glyphs from instances, to substitute alternate glyph designs for specific instances, and to update more Font Dict fields in the instance fonts. Added help. - add command line equivalent, "makeInstances' which does the same thing, but which uses the IS tool for making the snapshot. See the 'IS' entry. IS. - Added new tool for "intelligent scaling". This uses the hinting in an MM font to keep glyph paths aligned when snapshotting from MM fonts. The improvement is most visible in glyphs with several elements that need to maintain alignment, such as percent and perthousand. It is also useful for the same reason when scaling fonts from a large em-square size to a smaller size. To be effective, the source MM font must be hinted and must have global alignment zones defined. The new font must be re-hinted. For instances from MM fonts especially, it is a good idea to re-do the alignment zones, as the blending of the MM base designs usually does not produce the best alignment zones or stem widths for the instance fonts. makeInstances and "Instance Generator" scripts allow you to preserve these modifications when re-doing the MM instance snapshot. makeotf - Fixed generation of version 1.2 GDEF table to match the final OpenType spec version 1.6. This version is generated only when the new lookup flag 'UseMarkFilteringSet" is used. - Fixed generation of names for stylistic alternates features. There was a bug such that in some circumstances, the feature table entry for the stylistic alternate feature would point to the wrong lookup table. - Fixed generation of the reverse substitution lookup type. This was unintentionally disabled just before the previous release. - Fixed bugs in memory management of glyph objects. If the font built, it was correct, but this bug could cause the font to fail to build. spot. - Fixed to dump GDEF table version 1.2 according to the final OpenType spec version 1.6. - Fixed feature-format dump of the lookupflags MarkAttachmentType and UseMarkFilteringSet to give a class name as an argument, rather than a class index. - Extended the GDEF table dump to provide a more readable form. - added dump formats for htmx and vtmx to show the advance and side bearing metrics for all glyphs. FDK v2.5 Jan 22 2009 change number 21340. AGLFN. Adobe Glyph List for New Fonts. Created new version 1.7. - Reverted to the AGLFN v1.4 name and Unicode assignments for Delta, Omega, and mu. The v1.6 versions were better from a designer's point of view, but we can't use name-to-Unicode value mappings that conflict with the historic usage in the Adobe Glyph List 2.0. Also removed afii and commaaccent names. See http://www.adobe.com/devnet/opentype/archives/glyph.html. -Dropped all the AFII names from the list: "uni" names are actually more descriptive, and map to the right Unicode values under Mac OSX. -Dropped all the commaccent names from the list: "uni" names map to the right Unicode values under Mac OSX before 10.4.x. autohint. -converted AC.py script to call a command-line program rather than a Python extension module, same way makeotf works, to avoid continuing Python version problems. - fixed so autohint will actually emit vstem3 and hstem3 hint operators (counter control hints, which work to keep the space between three stems open and equal, as in an 'm') - this has been broken since the first FDK. It will now also look in the same directory as the source font for a file named "fontinfo", and will attempt to add stem3 hints to the glyph which are listed by name in the name list for the keys "HCounterChars" or "VCounterChars". - fixed old bug where autohint would only pay attention to the bottom four of the top zone specified in the Font Dict BlueValues list. This results in more edge hints in tall glyphs. - fixed special case when adding flex operator which could result in an endless loop -added 'logOnly' option, to allow collecting report without changing the font. - added option to specify which glyphs to exclude from autohinting - suppressed generation and use of .plist file, unless it is specifically requested. - Fixed bug where an extremely complex glyph would overflow a buffer of the list of hints. checkOutlines - improve overlap detection and path orientation. checkOutlines will now work with outlines formed by overlapping many stroke elements, as is sometimes done in developing CJK fonts. - added new test for nearly vertical or horizontal lines. Fixed bug in this new code, reported by Erik van Blokland. CompareFamily. - For the warning that the Full Family name in the CFF table differs from that in the name table, changed it to a "Warning" rather than "Error", and explained that there is no functional consequence. - Removed check that Mac names ID 16 and 17 do not exist, as makeotf now does make them. See notes in MakeOTF User Guide about this. - Fixed so it works with ttf fonts again. makeotf. - removed code that added a default Adobe copyright to the name table if n copyright is specified, and removed code to add a default trademark. - added support for the lookupflag UseMarkFilteringSet. This is defined in the proposed changes for OpenType spec 1.6, and is subject to change in definition. - Dropped restriction that vmtx/VORG/vhea tables will only be written for CID-keyed fonts. The presence in the feature file of either a 'vrt2' feature of of vmtx table overrides will now cause these tables to be written for both CID-keyed and name-keyed fonts. - Added warning when a feature is referenced in the aalt feature definition, but either does not exist or does not contribute any rules to the aalt feature. The aalt feature can take only single and alternate substitution rules. - Added support for the following lookup types: GSUB type 2 Multiple Substitution GSUB type 8 Reverse Chaining Single Substitution GPOS type 3 Cursive Adjustment GPOS type 4 Mark-to-Base Attachment GPOS type 5 Mark-to-Ligature Attachment GPOS type 6 Mark-to-Mark Attachment - Added support for explicit definition of the GDEF table, and automatic creation of the GDEF when any of the lookup flag settings for ignoring a glyph class is used, or any mark classes are defined. - Support using TTF fonts as input, to build an OpenType/TTF font, with the limitation that glyph order and glyph names cannot be changed. This is rather ugly under the hood, but it works. The MakeOTF.py Python script uses the tx tool to convert the TTF font to CFF data without changing glyph order or names. It then builds an OpenType/CFF font. It then uses the sfntedit tool to copy the TTF glyph data to the OpenType font, and to delete the CFF table. - Added support for building in Unicode Variation Selectors for CID-keyed fonts, using the new cmap subtable type 14. - fixed bug with inheritance of default rules by scripts and languages in feature file feature definitions. Explicitly defined languages were only getting default rules defined after the last script statement, and when a script is named, languages of the script which are not named got no rules at all. - fixed bug where you couldn't run makeotf when the current directory is not the same is the source font's home directory. - set OS/2.lastChar field to U+FFFF when using mappings beyond the BMP. - Create the Mac platform name table font menu names by the same rules as used for the Windows menu names. Add new keywords to the FontMenuNameDB file syntax. If you use the old keywords, you get the old format; if you use the new syntax, you get name ID's 1,2 and 16 and 17 just like for the Windows platform. - Fixed bug in name table font menu names; if you entered a non-English Preferred name ("f=") and not a compatible family name ("c="), you would end up with a name ID 16 but no name ID 17. - fixed bogus " deprecated "except" syntax" message under Windows - fixed makeotf bug where contextual pos statements without backtrack or lookahead context is writing as a non-contextual rule. Karsten Luecke 10/15/2007 - add new option to make stub GSUB table when no GSUB rules are preset. - added warning if the aalt feature definition references any feature tags that either do not exist in the font, or do not contribute any rules that the aalt feature can use. sfntdiff. - fixed so that only error messages are written to stderr; all others now written to stdout - fixed bug in dump of name tale; when processing directories rather than individual files, the name name table text was never updated after the first file for the second directory. spot. - fixed option "ÐFÓ to show the contextual rule sub-lookup indices, and to flag those which have already been used by another lookup. - if a left side class 0 is empty, donÕt report it. - For GSUB/GPOS=7 feature-file-format dump, give each class a unique name in the entire font by appending the lookup ID to the class names. It was just ÒLEFTCLASS__Ó, but these names are repeated in every lookup. It is now: ÒLEFTCLASS_c_s_lÓ, - When a positioning value record has more than one value, print the full 4 item value record. Previously, it would just print non-zero values. This was confusing when dumping Adobe Arabic, as you would see tow identical values at the end of some pos rules. In fact, each of these pos rule does have two adjustment values, one for x and one for y advance adjustment, that happen to be the same numeric value. - fixed to write backtrack context glyphs in the right order. tx. - Added option to NOT clamp design coordinates to within the design space when snapshotting MM fonts. - Add option to subroutinize the font when writing to CFF. This option is derived from the same code used by makeotfexe, but takes only about 10% the memory and runs much faster. This should allow subroutinizing large CJK fonts that makeotfexe couldn't handle. This is new code, so please test results carefully, i.e. if you use it, always check that the flattened glyphs outlines from the output font are identical to the flattened glyph outlines from the input font. ttxn - Added options to suppress hinting in the font program, and version and build numbers. FDK v2.0 Nov 10 2007 build 27. compareFamily - Fixed Single Test3 bug, reported by Mark Simonson and others. CompareFamily should be comparing the Mac platform name ID 4 (name ID 1 + space + name ID 2, Style) with the target value, but was actually using the value of the nameid 18, Compatible Full Name - Fixed Family Test 2 to print a report that lets you figure out which {platform, script, language, name ID} is present in some fonts but not others. IS. Fixed a bug where applying hint-based scaling can cause an off-by-1 error when the the closepath position is supposed to coincide with the original moveto, leading to an effective final 1-unit lineto, that may overlap the initial path. In the old MM design world, we worked around this issue by designing the MM's so that there was always a one unit difference between a final curveto point and the original moveto. FontLab doesn't support doing that automatically, so instead when making an instance, IS will simply look for cases where the moveto and closepath positions differ by one unit, and move the moveto position to coincide with the closepath position. makeotf. -Fixed bug reported by Adam Twardoch, where specifying thousands of singleton kern pairs could silently overflow offsets, and makeotf would build a bad font without any warning Added support for Unicode Variation Sequences. See MakeOTF User's Guide. - Fixed bug reported by Andreas Seidel, who pointed out that makeotf can use relative file paths only when the current dir is the source font directory. Project files can now be saved to directories other than the source font directory. Note that paths stored in project file are relative to the project file's directory. spot. Added support for Unicode Variation Sequences. See MakeOTF User's Guide, and Unicode Technical Standard #37 at: http://unicode.org/reports/tr37/ Fixed bug where contents of 'size' GPOS feature would be printed for all dump levels. Fixed bug where would fail on post table format 4.0. which occurs in some Apple TT fonts, such as Osaka.dfont Misc. Updated Adobe-Japan-1 CMAP files for building CID fonts FDK v2.0 May 5 2007 build 26. Misc. - added "featurefile.plist" for BBedit. Install this in the location shown at the top of the file, and it adds limited coloring and function block selection support for BBedit. This fie is in FDK/Tools/SharedData - Added "MSFontValidatorIssues.html" to FDK/Technical Documentation. This lists the error messages from the MS FontValidator tool that can be ignored for OpenType/CFF fonts. FontLab macros - Added InstanceGenerator. Another script for making instances from a FontLab MM font VFB file. Simpler than MakeInstances, InstanceGenerator was written by the Adobe Type editors, and is actually used. - Fixed a bug in Set Start Points, reported by George Ryan. I had left a debug statement such it operated only on the first 50 glyphs. - added explanation of CheckOutlines errors to help dialog checkOutlines - add option -he to print explanation of error messages. compareFamily - Added error if font contains a CFF table Type 2 seac operator. This is very bad as the CFF spec does not support this operator. Some very old tools allow this to happen. makeotf - Fixed a bug in decomposing glyphs that are defined as composite glyphs in the Type 1 source font. This bug caused the base component to be shifted when then left side bearing of the composite glyph differs from that of the base glyph. This could be consequential, as FontLab has an option to not decompose composite glyphs when generating a Type 1 font. - Fixed a bug in MakeOTF.py in recognizing the order "Korea1" when trying to pick a default Mac cmap script ID from a CID-keyed font's Registry-Order- Supplement field. tx - fixed a bug in decomposing pretty much all composite glyphs from Type1 and CFF source fonts. This happened only when a Type 1 or CFF font was being subset, i.e. converted into a font with fewer glyphs. tx now has an option "+Z" to force this to occur. FDK v2.0 March 30 2007 build 25. autohint. - Added a new option to allow extending the list of glyph names for which autohint will try to make counter hints. - Fixed bug where T2 operator stack limit could be exceeded when optimizing T2 charstring during conversion from bez format. - fixed bug in setting OtherBlues alignment zone values. FontLab Autohint. - the autohinting module behaves quite differently when adding flex is turned off; it makes more hint substitutions, since these are not allowed within the segment of the outline that contributes the 'flex' stem. Turned it on, so that hint results will be the same as the commnand-line tool. This does not affect the outline data. checkOutlines Fixed bug that kept checkOutlines from reporting two succesive points on top of each other. The code to convert from the source outline data to bez format was suppressing zero-length line segments, so the checkOutlines module never saw the problem. compareFamily. - added new options '-st n1,n2.." and "-ft n1,n2.." to allow executing only one or a few single and family face tests. - Fixed Family Blues Test2. Warn if a style-linked family group does not have FamilyBlues. When reporting error if FamilyBlues differ in a style-linked family group (where at least one font does have real FamilyBlues), use BlueValues as implied FamilyBlues when the latter attribute is missing from a font. Same for FamilyOtherBlues. - Fixed Family Blues Test2. warn about zone outside of font BBox only if the entire zone is outside of the font BBox, not just one edge, and warn only for BlueValue zones, not FamilyBlueValue zones. - fixed fsType check. Complain if fsType is not 8 only when it is an Adobe font, determined by checking if the name table trademark string is empty or contains Adobe. Fixed Single Face Test 3 to compare the CFF Full Name with the name table Preferred Full Name (id 18) rather than the "Full Name" (id 4). - fixed new bug where it failed with CID fonts, because it referenced the "Private" dict attribute of the font's topDict, which doesn't exist in CID fonts. - fix new 'size' test to that it works right if the size feature is used only to indicate intended design size, and no range is supplied. - fixed ligature width check to also check that left and right side bearings match those of the left and right components, and to use the "liga' feature to identify ligatures and their components, instead of heuristics based on glyph names. makeotf - Fixed makeotf to not allow negative values in the feature file for the OS/2 table winAscent and winDescent fields. - Fixed problem in previous FDKv2.0 builds: a lookup excluded with the exclude_dflt keyword was nevertheless included if the script/language was specified with a languagesystem statement. - Fixed problem under Windows where user would see a debug assert dialog when the OS/2 vendorID was not specified in the feature file, and the Copyright string contained an 8-bit ASCII character, like the 'copyright' character. - Fixed problem where name id 17 would be garbage if no FontMeuNameDB was supplied, and the PostScript name did not contain a hyphen, under Windows only. - added warning for Mac OSX pre 10.5 compatibility: total size of glyphs names plus 2 bytes padding per glyph must be less than 32K, or OSX will crash. - fix newly added bug where makeotf would crash if the feature file did not have a languagesystem statement. - fixed very old bug where the subroutinzer would allow a subroutine stack depth of up to 10, but the Type 1 and Type 2 specs allow only 9. This caused most rasterizers to declare the font invalid. - Removed -cv option; the CJK font vertical Unicode CMAP hasn't actually been used in the code for since FDK 1.6 spot/otfproof - added support for low-lvel and feature file style text dumps for the GPOS Attachment formats 3,4,5 and 6. - added dump of lookup flag value to the feature-file style report - added MarkAndAttachmentClassDef record to report on GDEF table - added support for GSUB lookup type 2 (Multiple) within contextual substitution. - fixed bug in GSUB lookup 5, causing crash in dumping trado.ttf. - fixed bug in level 7 (feature-file syntax) dump of GPOS table; was omitting the value record for extension lookup types. - fixed bug where crashed on Windows when proofing contextual substitution statements. - fixed Windows spot to behave like Mac spot when proofing: PostScript file data is always sent to standard output, and must be re-directed to a file. See usage from "-u' option. - fixed usage text to better explain proofing output and -P option. - fixed so that it reports the DSIG table for TTC fonts with the version 2 TTC header, even if the header reports it is version 1, like meiryo.ttc - Fixed so that it can actually proof TTC fonts that don't have glyph names in the post table. - Fixed origin offset of bounding box for TTF fonts. - fixed crash in proofing TTF fonts when the last glyph is non-marking, like trado.ttf in LongHorn. FDK v2.0 Nov 6 2006 build 24. Public release of FDK 2.0. autohint, checkOutlines, proof-to-PDF scripts: Fix glyph name handling: avoid stack dump when glyph is not in font, and don't require that CID values be zero-padded to 5 hex digits. autohint - Fixed bug where edge hints would generated rather than regular hints across the baseline, when there were fewer than 8 pairs of BlueValues. checkOutlines. - Fixed bug where it would not report an overlap if there were an even number of overlapping contours compareFamily. - Fixed Italic angle Single Test 12 to look at the middle third of the test glyph stems, rather than the top and bottom of the glyph bounding box, when guessing the font's italic angle. - Fixed Single Test 15 to allow a difference of 1 unit in the font BBox, to allow for rounding differences. - Fixed Single Test 26 to identify uXXXX names as valid Unicode names; had bug in the regular expression that required 5 digits. - Fixed Single Test 22 to treat glyphs in the combining mark Unicode range u300-u036F range as accent glyphs; require that they have the same width as the base glyph. - changed report from Error to Warning for check that only the first four Panose values are non-zero. - fix bug that causes a stack dump in Single Test 16 and 22 - added tests for Mac OSX pre 10.4 compatibility: no charstring is < 32K, total size of glyphs names plus padding is less than 32K. - added test that known shipping font does not have OS/2 table version 4, and that new fonts do. - fixed Single Test 11: allow BASE offset to differ from calculated offset by up to 10 design units before it complains. compareFamily, makeotf - fix failure when tools path contains a space Documentation - in Overview.html, add warning about 'languagesystem Dflt dflt' and FDK 1.6 feature files. - in MakeOTFUserGuide.pdf, expand discussion of fontinfo file, updated documentation of OS/2 v 4 table bits with Adobe's practices for the next library release. - added two new tech notes on using rotateFont and mergeFonts - in "OT Feature File Syntax.html", fixed incorrect sign for winAscent keyword, extended discussion of DFLT script tag and useExtension keyword, and fixed minor typos. kernCheck - added this new tool. This looks for kern GPOS rules that conflict, and also looks for glyph pairs that overlap. - added option to allow running only the check of GPOS subtables for kerning rules that mask each other. makeotf - Fix so -adds option works. - add new option "-fi' to specify path to fontinfo file. - add new option '-rev' to increment the fontRevision field. - if the (cid)fontinfo file contains the keyword/value for FSType, will check that the value is the same as the OS/2 fsType field in the final OTF font. This has to do with historic Adobe CJK font development practices. - added support for setting some of the Plane 1+ bits in the OS/2 ulUnicodeRange fields mergeFonts. - Will now apply to the output font the values for the fields Weight and XUID, from the cidfontinfo file. spot - added support for showing some of the Plane 1+ bits in the OS/2 ulUnicodeRange fields stemHist: - when requiring that reports not already exist, don't delete older stem reports when asking for new alignment zone reports, and vice-versa. setsnap.pl. - Added new tool to pick standard stem hint values. This PERL script program takes in the report from stemHist, and recommends a set of values to use for the Type 1 font standard stem arrays. This is not as good as choosing the most relevant values yourself, but better than not providing any values. FDK v2.0 Sept 12 2006 build 22. compareFamily. - added test that Mac name ID 4 starts with Preferred Family name, and is the same as the CFF table Full Name, in Single Test 3. - added test for existence and validation of BASE table in Single Test 11. - fixed bug where failed when reporting font BBox error. - added test that some specific glyph names were not changed from previous version of font, in Single Test 26. - added "Single Face Test 27: Check strikeout/subscript/superscript positions". Checks values against default calculations based on the em-box size. - added "Single Face Test 28: Check font OS/2 code pages for the a common set of code page bits". Checks code OS/2 ulCodePageRange and ulUnicodeRange blocks against the default makeotf heuristics. - added in Single Test 12 a rough calculation of the italic angle. Warns if this is more than 3 degrees different than the post table Italic angle value. - added in Family Test 15 a check that all fonts in a preferred family have the same hhea table underline size and position values. - Added "Family Test 16: Check that for all faces in a preferred family group, that the width of any glyph is not more than 3 times the width of the same glyph in any other face" - fix Family Test 3 so that it works right. I think it worked before, but was very inefficient. makeotf.v2.0.22, makeotfexe 2.0.14973 - added a new option '-maxs ' to limit the number of subroutines generated by subroutinization to the number. Used only when building test fonts to explore possible errors in processing the subroutines. - allow working names to be longer than 31 characters; complain, but don't quit, if final names are longer than 31 characters. FDK v2.0 Aug 31 2006 build 21. makeotf. - Fixed bug where 'size' feature is built incorrectly when it is the only GPOS feature in a font. spot. - Better error messages for 'size' feature problems. compareFamily. - Added dependency on environment variables: CF_DEFAULT_URL Should be set to standard foundry URL; is compared with name ID 11 CF_DEFAULT_FOUNDRY_CODE Should be set to default 4-letter foundry code, is compared with OS.2 table achVendID field. - CFF PostScript name is same as Mac and Windows name table name ID 6. - named ID 9 and 11 ( foundry design note and URL) exist. - SingleTest 4 extended to verify that version string is in correct format "(Version|OTF) n.nnn'. - added to Panose test that values are not all 0, and than the CFF font dict 'isFixedPitch field matches Panose monospace value. - added check that Unicode cmap sub table exists - added check the latn/dflt and DFLT/dflt script/languages are present, if there are any GPOS or GSUB rules. Also checks that script and language tags are in registered lists, and that all faces have the same set of language and script tags, and feature list under each language and script pair. - added check that all faces in the family have the same OS/2 table fsType embedding permission values. - added check that if font has Bold style bit, that the CFF forceBold flag is on. Also vice-versa, if the font weight is less than 700. - added check that the font does not have a UniqueID or XUID, if not CID-keyed. - added glyph name checks: OS/2 default char is notdef, and that there are "null" and "cr" glyphs in TrueType fonts, and that names conform to the current Adobe Glyph Dictionary. Note that latest usage uses 'uni' names for final names for all the 'afii' glyphs. - fixed family BlueValue tests to compare within Compatible family Name groups - changed Family Test 2 to check if all name ID's except 16,17,18, are all present with the same language/script values within all faces of a preferred family. - Changed Single Test 3, which didn't do at all what it said, to a new test FontLab proofing scripts. - Fixed bug introduced when changing modules shared with command-line scripts in build 19. FDK v2.0 Aug 14 2006 build 20. ProofPDF.py - Fixed bug in waterfallplot mode, where Acrobat would report the output pdf file as being damaged. makeotf. - Fixed bug where couldn't build CID fonts in release mode, introduced in build 19. FDK v2.0 Aug 4 2006 build 19. compareFamily. - added to Family Test 13 to report error if two fonts in the same preferred family have the same OS/2 weight, width and Italic settings, and the OS/2 version is greater than 3. Also reports an error if the fsSelection field bit 8 "WEIGHT_WIDTH_SLOPE_ONLY" is set differently in different faces of the same preferred family name group. - Fixed Family Test 12 to not fail when the font has a script/language with no DefaultLangSys entry. makeotf. - Will now set the new fsSlection bits if the following key/value pairs are in the 'fontinfo' file. PreferOS/2TypoMetrics 1 IsOS/2WidthWeigthSlopeOnly 1 IsOS/2OBLIQUE 1 - If a font file with the requested output file name already exists, will delete it before running makeotfexe, so can tell if it failed. digiplot. - add new option to specify the font base-line, so the base-line can be set correctly when proofing a font file without a BASE table. - allow using a CID layout file to supply meta info when proofing name-keyed font. ProofPDF.py. - Added two new proof-to-PDF functions, waterfallplot, fontsetplot. waterfallplot does not yet work with TrueType or CID-keyed fonts. FDK v2.0 May 15 2006 build 17. Multiple tools: fixed so the FDK can be installed under Windows on a path with spaces. autohint. -Added option to suppress hint substitution. -Added option to allow processing of fonts without std stem widths set. -Fixed help and message to refer to 'autohint' tool name, rather than to the AC script file name. - fixed bug in processing hint masks: bytes with no bits set were being omitted. - added option to allow it to hint fonts without StdHW or StdVW entries in the font Private font-dictionary. checkOutlines. - Fixed this so the script really would write out the changes when fixing outlines. - Fixed bug that mangled outlines when three alternating perpendicular lines or vh/hv/vv/hh curveto's followed each other - WIll now write report to a log file as well as to screen. Added option to set log file path, and added numeric suffix to name so as to avoid overwriting existing log files. compareFamily. - fixed bug: it would fail when looking through the directory for font files, when encountering a file for which the user does not have read permission. - added SingleTest24; check that 'size' feature Design Size is within the design range specified for the font. fontplot/charplot/digiplot/hintplot/showfont - extend to work with Type 1 font files as well as OTF and TTF files - add showfont command to show how to customize a command file to produce a different page layout - fixed so fonts with em-squares of other then 1000 would work. makeotf. - Fixed MakeOTF to survive being given a font path with spaces. - the -S and -r options now work. - Added new option '-osv n' to write arbitrary version to the OS/2 table version number. - Added new option '-osbOn n' to set arbitrary bitfields in OS/2 table fsSelection to on. May be repeated more than once to set more than one bit. - Added new option '-osbOff n' to clear arbitrary bitfields in OS/2 table fsSelection to on. May be repeated more than once to clear more than one bit. - if neither the -b nor the -i options are used, check for a file "fontinfo" in the same directory as the source font file, and set the style bits if the key/values are found: "IsBoldStyle true" and "IsItalicStyle true". FontLab Macros. - Built the autohint and checkOutline libraries (PyAC and focusdll) linked with Python2.3 so that they will work with FontLab 5. mergeFonts. - Added option to copy only font metrics from first source font. - allow empty lines and "#" comment lines in glyph alias and in cidfontinfo files. rotateFont - fixed bug where it did not allow negative numbers. - allow empty lines and "#" comment lines in rotation info file sfntedit - Fixed so that it will not leave the temp file behind on a fatal error, nor quit because one already exists. spot. - Fixed order of backtrack glyphs in dump of chaining contextual sub and pos statements. Now assumes that these are built in the correct order. - removed date-time from page title. v3.5.13354 detype1/type1. Added two new tools that decompile/compile a Type 1 font to/from a plain text representation. FDK 2.0 Feb 14 2006 build 5 comparefamily. - Added warning if sum of OS/2 table sTypoLineGap, sTypoAscender, and sTypoDescender is not equal to the sum of usWinAscent and usWinDescent - updated test for allowable weights in style-linked faces to reflect current behaviour of Windows XP. - added check that for OpenType/CFF, name table name ID 4 "Full Name" for Windows is the same as the PostScript Name. - added report on sets of features in different language systems, and an error message if they are not the same in all faces of the font. - fixed incorrect message about real error when menu names are not correctly built. - fixed test for improbable FontBBOX to use em-square rather than assume 1000 em. - added warning if widths of ligatures are not larger than the width of the first glyph - added warning if accented glyphs have a width different than their base glyph. - added error message if two faces in the same family have the same OS/2 width and weight class and italic style setting, and are not optical size variants. Optical size rule is crude: I compare PS names after removing the Adobe standard optical size names from the PS name string: "Caption, Capt, Disp, Ds, Subh, Six. If the PS names are then the same, then they were optical size variants. - Added check that no hint is outside the FontBBox, for CJK fonts only. spot/otfproof. - Added "Korean" to list of tags for OS/2 code page range. - fixed dump of 'size' feature to support correct and old versions - added dump/proof of contextual chaining positioning format 3. - added warnings that only low-level dump of other contextual lookups is supported. makeotf. - program is now a stand-alone C executable. - removed option to write contextual positioning rules in the "old" incorrect format. - MakeOTF no longer assigns Unicode Private Use Area values to glyphs for which it cannot identify. If you want to use these values, you must explicitly assign them in the GlyphOrderAndAlias file. - Fixed bug in name table name ID "Version": if version decimal value is x.000, then the value in the Version name ID string was x.001. - fixed bug in handling of DFLT language script: you can now use this tag. - fixed feature file parsing bug bug where ''dflt' lookups in one feature were applied to the following feature if the following feature started with a language statement other than 'dflt'. - Fixed serious bug where wrong width is calculated for glyphs where\ the CFF font Type 2 charstring for the glyph starts with a width value. This is then followed by the value pairs for the coordinates for the vertical hint, and then these are followed by a hint mask or control mask operator. The bug is that when MakeOTF reads in the charstring in order to derive the hmtx width, it discards the data before the control mask operator, leading the parser to use the CFF default width for the glyph. - vhea.caretSlopeRise and vhea.caretSlopeRun is now set to 0 and 1, rather than reverse. - MakeOTF will now set the OS/2 table 'type' field to: the feature file override. If not supplied, then: the value of the environment variable FDK_FSTYPE. If no set then: 4 (EDIT_EMBED) - support contextual chaining positioning for positioning only; mark and anchors not yet supported. - fixes the bug in the 'size' feature: the feature param offset is now set to the offset from the start of the feature table, not from from the start of the FeatureList table. - allow size feature point sizes to be specified as decimal points, as well as in integer decipoints. - OS/2 table version is now set to 3. - added OS/2 overrides for winAscent and winDescent - added hhea overrides for Ascender/Descender/LineGap - set OS/2 Unicode coverage bits only if the font has a reasonable number of glyphs in the Unicode block; it was setting the bits if the font had even one glyph in the block. - MakeOTF will now set the "Macintosh" code page bit in the OS/2 corePageRange fields. feature file documentation. - fixed incorrect range example in section '2.g.ii. Named glyph classes" - changed rule to allow lookup definitions outside of feature definitions in FDK 2.0. - fixed incorrect uses of 'DFLT' rather than 'dflt' for a language tag. - minor typos FDK 8139 Aug 30 2004 OTFProof.py. Fixed error in dumping GSUB table: GSUB lookup 5, context lookup assumed that there was both a look-ahead and a backtrack sequence. Updated SING META table tags to latest set. FDK 7974 Aug 30 2004 MakeOTF.py Fixed rule in building CJK font. When looking for Adobe CMAP files, will no longer use a hard-coded max supplement value when building paths to try. FDK 7393 Jan 14 2004 CompareFamily. Fix stack dump when family has no BlueValues (thanks to House Industries) Fix stack dump when CFF-CID font has glyph with no subr calls. FDK 7359 Jan 14 2004 OTFProof. Corrected error in last release, where spaces between ligature match string names were omitted. FontLab Scripts. Add scripts to test if joins in connecting script font are good. FDK 7307 Jan 6 2004 OTFProof. Fix crash on proofing or dumping feature file syntax for GSUB lookup 5, context lookup. Also fixed rule-generating logic: results were previously wrong for proof and for feature-file syntax formats. Text dump has always been correct. Fixed crash when dumping cmap subtables that reference virtual GID's not in the font. Fixed crash on dumping GSUB lookup type 6 chaining context subtable format 2. This has never worked before. Added dumo for SING glphlet tables, SING and META. FontLab Composites Scripts. Added FontLab scripts for creating and reading in an external composites definition text file FontLab Scripts. Added FontLab scripts for working with MM fonts FDK 6864 Oct 8 2003 OTFProof. Fix crash after dumping contents of ttc fonts, a bug added in changelist 6792. FDK 6815 Oct 2 2003 OTFProof. Fix to cmap subtable 4 and 2 dumps. Cmap subtable 2 could show encoding values for single byte codes which were really the first byte of two byte character codes. In Format 4, idDelta values were not being added when the glyphindex was derived from the glyph index array. These show issues show up in some TTF CJKV fonts. FDK 6792 Sept 24 2003 OTFProof. Fixed crash when proofing fonts with *many* glyphs Restored "skipping lookup because already seen in script/language/feature" messages to proof file, which was lost in build 6604. Added ability to proof resource fork sfnt fonts from Mac OSX command line. You must still use the SplitForks tool to make a data-fork only resource file, but spot/otfproof can now navigate in the resulting AppleDouble formatted resource file. Added support for a text dump of the GDEF table. Changed title in size feature dump from "Common Characters" to: "name table name ID for common Subfamily name for size group" AGL. Fixed some minor errors in the Adobe Glyph List For New Fonts. FDK 6629 OTFProof. Fixed bug in dumping KERN table from Mac sfnt-wrapped resource fork Type 1 MM font. FDK 6604 OTFProof. Changed the AFM-format dump of kern pairs to list all kern pairs for each lang/script combination in separate blocks, and to eliminate all class kern pairs that are masked by a singleton kern pair. The temp buffer file path is now taken from the system C library function tmpnam(), and is not necessarily in the current directory. FDK 6568 OTFProof. 1) fixed command-line tool to write proof files in same location as font, and with font-name prefix, when not auto-spooled for printing. 2) fixed bug in UI version where proofing GSUB features and then GPOS features would cause the GPOS feature proof files to be empty. MakeOTF/coretype/ Fixed heuristics for picking OS/2 weight/width so that a font name containing "ultracondensed" would trigger only setting the width, and not also the weight. Updated Mac OS project files to CodeWarrior 8. FDK 6564 OTFProof. 1) When dumping data from TTF fonts, now add "@" to all glyph names. This is because the rules for deriving names can lead to two glyphs being given the same name. 2) Fix bug in proofing GPOS class kernpairs: was generating bogus kern pairs and duplicate kern pairs when the coverage format was type 2. Affects proof file only, not AFM or feature-format dump. FDK build 6358 Fixed memory overwrite bug encountered by Goichi and cleaned up various memory leaks in the process. FDK 6324 ExtractShowRoomData.py. Fixed bugs for ornament and ligature tags, in script which extracts data about an OpenType font in order to set the attribute icons in the Adobe Type web-site. FDK 6324 ExtractShowRoomData.py. Fixed bugs for ornament and ligature tags, in script which extracts data about an OpenType font in order to set the attribute icons in the Adobe Type web-site. FDK build 6324 CompareFamily.py Added report on whether face contains known std charset. Stub implementation - still need list of std charsets AFM2Feat. Finally made script to convert a AFM file to a file kern feature pos rules FDK build 6148 Final rebuild of all libraries for v1.6 release 3/10/2003. FDK build 6048 Updated FinishInstall.py to reflect Python 2.2 requirements Picked up last MakeOTF.pdf editing changes Fixed bug in GOADB Updated CID font data in example fonts FDK build 6036 Documentation. Updated release notes and installation instructions. GlyphOrderAndAliasDB. Updated to use the file developed while converting the Adobe Type Library. Maps all the old glyph names to AGL compatible names. FDK build 6020 OTFProof: Fixed crash in handling of VORG with no entries. (V#574752) FDK build 6014 MakeOTF. Updated the MakeOTF documentation. Added a description of how all three columns of the Glyph Order and Alias DB file are used. Added a new section on the key-value pairs of the font project file. Updated the description of the Font Menu Name DB file entries. Added minor clarifications throughout. Documentation. Updated digital_signature_guide.htm to match current Verisign web site. Example Fonts. Changed the incorrect language keyword TUR to TRK. Removed the many key/value pairs in the fontinfo files that are not used by MakeOTF. FDK tools. Added new file selector for TTF files when choosing a target font file. FDK build 5988 Fixed 3-column handling of GOAADB in OTFProof/spot per Vantive 569681 FDK build 5978 Created the new FDK Image on Type Server FDK V1.6 build 5959 MakeOTF. Suppressed the "repeat hint substitution discarded" message from the source file parsing library. These are so common that they obscure more useful messages. MakeOTF. Set as default the option to build chaining contextual substitution rules with the incorrect format used by InDesign 2.0 and earlier. MakeOTF. If the option above is set, then MakeOTF will write a name id (1,0,0,5) name string ID "Version" which will contain the text string which triggers special case code in future Adobe apps so that it will process the chaining contextual substitution rules as they were intended. If this option is NOT set, the name string ID "Version" will be written so as to not trigger this special case code. The special case treats specially any font where the name table name id (1,0,0,5) exists and either matches: "OTF[^;]+;PS[^;]+;Core 1\.0\.[23][0-9].*" example: "OTF 1.006;PS 1.004;Core 1.0.35" or contains: "Core[^;]*;makeotf\.lib" example: "Core 1.0.38;makeotf.lib1.5.4898" or just "Core;makeotf.lib" MakeOTF. Set off by default the option to force that the .notdef glyph in the output OTF font bean X'd rectangle with an advance width of 500. MakeOTF. Added rule to force the OS/2 WeightClass to always be at least 250. Shows error message if set or calculated WeightClass was less than this. MakeOTF. Add test that FSType is set the same in the feature file as in source CID font files. FDK UI tools. Fixed font file browsing options to show TTF fonts as well as OTF fonts by default. OTFProof. page layout for CJKV font vertical layout: now writes the vertical columns right to left. OTFProof. When writing vertical features, now shows the advance width sign as negative. OTFProof. When making PostScript proof file, now writes DSC tags with correct header and page info. FDK. Added OTF FileTyper to Programs directory FDK. Added "Unicode and Glyph Name" documentation to the FDK "Technical Documentation" directory, to allow access to this info under the FDK license. MakeOTF. Added some bug fixes to the typecomp library, copied from CoreTech. Bumped typecomp library version number to 2.0.33. o The BaseFontBlend operator was never output even if the key was present in the source font because of a bug in the loop that wrote DICT operators. o It was possible for pre-defined charset to be selected for a CID-keyed font o Charstring-encrypted CID-keyed fonts having one set of subroutines referenced from multiple dictionaries failed due to the subr charstrings being decrypted o Duplicate values in a CID subset specification could cause multiple glyphs with the same CID to be included in the subset or worse still to cause a fatal error when parsing the CID font. This possibility is now averted by weeding out duplicates from the client-supplied subset. o Fixed flex optimization bug which caused the hflex operator to be incorrectly selected for certain fonts. Increased Core/hotconv library revision number from 1.0.36 to 1.0.37 V1.6 build 4908 MakeOTF/feature file syntax. Added new vmtx table overrides, in order to permit setting vertical metrics for pre-rotated proportional glyphs that are specifically designed and are not simply rotated forms of proportional glyphs. MakeOTF/feature file syntax. Added new OS/2 overrides to set the Unicode and Windows code page range fields: UnicodeRange CodePageRange MakeOTF/feature file syntax. Updated language keywords to be consistent with OpenType spec, i.e using "dflt" instead of "DFLT". Expanded section explaining use of language and script default keywords. Old keywords still work, but cause a warning to be emitted. feature file syntax. Expanded explanation of kern class pairs and subtable breaks. V1.6 build 4908 MakeOTF. Updated the MakeOTF.py search rules for CID font CMAP files to support Adobe-Japan2-0, and to look first for UTF-32 CMAP files. V1.5 build 4987 Release to Adobe web site Sept 2002 V1.5 build 4908 MakeOTF. Changed the name table version string to match OT spec 1.4. CompareFamily. made it *really* work with Sept 10th 2002 release of Just von Rossum's FontTools library. v1.5 build 4492 MakeOTF. (hotlib 1.0.35) Fixed the error in processing GSUB contextual chaining substitution format 3. This was originally done according to the OpenType spec spec 1.4, which is in error by the established implementation of VOLT and Uniscribe. Added new flag = "-fc " to cause the library to use the incorrect implementation, according to OT spec v 1.4. Without flag, MakeOTF builds the correct contextual format per spec v1.5. MakeOTF. (hotlib 1.0.35) Fixed Unicode cmap bug in assigning the OS/2 table field usLastCharIndex. This is supposed to be the highest uv value in the BMP-16 cmap tables. The problem was in the logic by which alternates of supplemental plane glyph names were being assigned an EUS code, but not added to the BMP-16 Unicode cmap tables, eg u1D269.alt. When one of these alternates was assigned an EUS value, the usLastCharIndex was getting bumped even though the glyph was not being added to the BMP-16 cmap tables. Fixed by not incrementing usLastCharIndex in this case. MakeOTF. Fixed bug in applying client-supplied uv override values. These were omitted if the glyph names in the font were different than the final glyph names, as can happen when the client uses the getFinalGlyphName call back to supply a glyph production name which is different than the final glyph name. v1.5 build 4479 OTFProof. Fixed crash when proofing liga feature in CID font. Also fixed crash when proofing charstring with only one operand, e.g h/r/vmoveto. v1.5 build 4345 CompareFamily. Updated to use the latest version of Just von Rossum's FontTools library, added support for TrueType fonts. Now requires Python 2.2 v1.5 build 4141 CompareFamily. Added family test 11: verify that for base font in style-linked group, Mac and Windows menu names are the same, and that for other fonts in the style linked group, the Mac and Windows menu names differ. v1.5 build 4099 *** External release of FDK 1.5 on Adobe web site. Updated release notes and documentation. v1.5 build 3849 CompareFamily: Fixed tabular glyph and isFixedPitch test so that they are now useful - used to generate far too many false errors. v1.5 build 3848 MakeOTF: Fixed bug in setting Panose values from a feature file override. If any value in the Panose value string is 0, all subsequent values were also set to 0. v1.5 build 3828 MakeOTF: Fixed bug where glyphs that got renamed were not subjected to the ordering specified by the GlyphOrderAndAliasDb file. v1.5 build 3762 Added FDK.py file to integrate all tools into a common UI v1.5 build 3761 OTFCompare: Added use of CFFChecker library for CFF table v1.5 build 3759 EOM: Release 1.1.4 with minor bug fix v1.5 build 3635 CFFChecker: Added resource fork handling on OSX v1.5 build 3633 CompareFamily. Added family test 10: if any face in family has a real panose value, report derived panose values as an error. Also fixed bug in comparing copyright notices in family test 7: will now really report error only if differs in other than years v1.5 build 3480 CFFChecker: Added support for multiple input file v1.5 build 3319 CFFChecker 1.5.1: Added support for resource fork fonts under MacOS 9 v1.5 build 3204 Added CFFChecker interface to makeotf v1.5 build 3196 OFTCompare: Added OSX prompt-based support v1.5 build 3145 Fix R-O-S mapping for CMAP files. v1.5 build 3144 Fixed getunicodeCmap() to not hard-wire Adobe-Japan1-3 when processing J fonts. v1.5 build 2940 CFFChecker: MacOS 9 version created v1.5 build 2606 Adding CFFChecker v1.5 build 2583 Fixed CompareFamily.py to not die on font menu names with non-std ASCII v1.5 build 2576 OTFProof: Fixed vertical metrics proofing v1.5 build 1821 Added warning when truncating OS/2 TypoAscender to force it + TypoDescender to be equal to the embox v1.5 build 1561 FDK, Fix Makeotf to allow fractional synthetic weight values. These are rounded to an integer. v1.5 build 1511 Changed XUID adding algorithm to NOT add the revision number to the XUID array. v1.5 build 1304 MakeOTF In release mode, add current year to copyright, suppress (c) string, and fix spaces around the phrase 'All Rights Reserved' v1.5 build 1106 MakeOTF. Fixed to permit building a font in release mode with no unique ID at all v1.5 build 1086 makeotf. bad cmap entry offset calculation. v1.5 build 1085 makeotf. Fix for bad cmap table entry. v1.5 build 1023 makeotf: 1) change algorithm for adjusting advance width/lsb/rsb of non-slanted synthetic glyphs when adding to italic fonts 2) fix failure of re-ordering when NOT forcing use of marking notdef. 3) fix ITC PS name prefixes from "Itc" to "ITC", and fix a PS name-too-long problem with Univers-LightCondensedOblique v1.5 build 1010 fixed interaction between Sigma and synthetic summation and Pi and product. v1.5 build 978 spot added the option to select which feature to dump in GPOS or GSUB=7 dumps v1.5 build 955 OTFProof Added support of TT instructions in compound glyphs v1.5 build 938 Fixed CompareFamily.py. Was incorrectly unwrapping T2 charstring subroutines. All previous reports on whether glyphs were hinted should be doubted. v1.5 build 927 Makeotf - tweaked horizontal spacing of upright glyphs in oblique fonts v1.5 build 903 makeotf added support for "italicangle", "width" and "weight keywords in fontMenuNameDB v1.5 build 769 SCM makeotf typecomp. 1) Fixed Euro-adding bug v1.5 build 604 - 696 OTFProof Removed header note "1000 units/em" from proofs. Added support for cmap version 12. Removed zero padding of CID values from text reports Reduced number of warnings about missing characters. Removed warning when GPOS and GSUB table may be too big, as no tools make this error. any more, and it is triggered inappropriately when font uses the extension lookup. v1.5 build 604 OTFProof: Fixed different spacing problem reported as Vantive 420313 v1.5 build 602 Makeotf: Fixed problem with unspecified CMAP files v1.5 build 601 OTFProof: Fixed so that vertical proofs write from right to left. v1.5 build 600 OTFProof: Fixed so that glyph names for CID fonts print properly. Fixed problems with compile under SUNOS. MakeOTF Added MakeOTFScript.py as an example file to edited, in order to allow scripting of makeOTF on the Mac (or any other platform). Minor changes to MakeOTF.py to fix this. Added options to allow user to specify options to: - remove deprecated Type 1 operands from output font ( e.g. seac and dotsection) - add new glyphs, using a built-in sans and serif multiple master substitution font, if the source font has a 'zero' and a capital "O", and it the option to add std glyphs is chosen. The glyphs added are: Euro Delta Omega approxequal asciicircum asciitilde at backslash bar brokenbar currency dagger daggerdbl degree divide equal estimated fraction greater greaterequal infinity integral less lessequal litre logicalnot lozenge minus multiply notequal numbersign onehalf onequarter paragraph partialdiff perthousand pi plus plusminus product quotedbl quotesingle radical section summation threequarters zero v1.5 build 592 CompareFamily.py. Fixed so that it will not error out when one of the Blues arrays is not present. =================================================================================== v1.4 build 583 Oct 24,2000 Read Roberts, Antoine Picard *** All components 1) Began tracking files by Perforce changelist label, from the Perforce source code management system. 2) Updated compilers to Mac/CodeWarrior 6 Pro, Windows Visual C++ 6.0 3) Re-organized build directories to have mac/win/sun4 subdirectories 4) Re-organized shared include files to all be under /Programs/api, with non-conflicting names. *** Example fonts. 1) Updated MinionPro-Capt: now had correct frac and size features. 2) added KozMinPro to samples. *** MakeOTF. 1) Fixed bug in makeotf where fontinfo keyword IsStyleBold was ignored for CID fonts. 2) Fixed Mac build project to load debug and release libraries by different names. 3) coretype library changes, from 1.0.27 to v1.0.28: o Added feature file support for the "languagesystem" statement. Note that this entailed removing support for script, language, and named lookup statements in the size feature, and removing support for script and language statements in the aalt feature. See feature file spec for details. o More descriptive wording in offset overflow error messages. Feature file error handling improved: multiple error messages are emitted before failing if possible, instead of just one; final glyph name as well as glyph alias (if applicable) reported if not found in font. o Changed the 14 Corporate Use subarea Unicode values for Zapf Dingbats to the proposed UVs in anticipation of their being incorporated into the Unicode standard. o Added FontWorks ('FWKS') to vendor ID list. o Increased the maximum number of named lookups allowed to 8192. o Now makes kern and vert features from kern data passed in by clients and from V CMap (respectively) only when the HOT_CONVERSION bit is set. (Previously, these features were made from the sources mentioned above if they weren't already defined in a feature file.) o Fixed an obscure bug in OS/2.ulUnicodeRange computation: if the largest UV in the font were not in any Unicode range recognized by hotlib then it was counted as being in the next recognized Unicode range after the UV. (No fonts I know of are affected by this.) o [rroberts] Force the OS/2 codepage range bits for Chinese to either Simplified or Traditional, based on the Mac cmap script, if it is defined as either Simplified or Traditional, and will fall back on the heuristics if the script is undefined. If the mac.script is something other than a Chinese script, then the OS/2 codepage range bits for Chinese will not get set.*** OTFProof. 4) Reduced some of the recursion in the subroutinization code to reduce stack space requirements 5) Fixed support for included feature files in parent folder on the Mac *** OTFCompare 1) The Python sys.path variable must now contain the path to the directory containing the OTFProof library (usually "FDK/Tools/Programs/otfproof/exe"). This replaces the hard-coded path reference in the OTFCompare.py script. On all platforms, this is done by adding the file "otfproof.pth", containing the path, to the Python installation. 2) Fixed a bug that was causing tables smaller than 16 bytes to be reported as different *** OTFProof. 1) Added a new proofing mode to CFF_ to print one glyph per page 2) Added a new proofing option to suppress file-specific header info to facilitate diff-ing of multiple proofs. 3) Added alphabetical sorting of AFM-style dump 4) Fixed bug causing GPOS/GSUB features with digits in their names to not appear in the proofing list 5) Added support for glyphsize option in CFF_ dumps ) Fixed conflicting include file names; must now specify include paths in project file. =============================================================================== v1.3.2 Oct 24,2000 Read Roberts, Antoine Picard *** OTFProof. - fixed bug where would report error opening Mac TTF suitcase font, because data fork was of size 0. - fixed bug where feature tags containing numbers were filtered out of the feature list for proofing. - fixed bug where base-line was shown incorrectly for CJK fonts with base-lines other than 120. - fixed bug where y-placement changes were not shown correctly in vertical writing mode proofs. =============================================================================== v1.3.1 Aug 15,2000 Read Roberts *** MakeOT 1) Fixed problem with heuristics for OS/2 code page range settings, for Chinese Simplified vs Traditional. 2) Added macro to define MakeOTF version number. 3) updated makeotflib help/usage messages: shown when args are incorrectly formatted. Files changed in makeotf: makeotf/exe/makeotfutils.py - in getfontinfo() - added fontinfo list entry for "Language" - added 'parameter' variable entry for same - increased num values to from 34 to 35 - changed initialization of 'parameter' so can more easily figure out which index matches which fontinfo field. makeotf/exe/makeotf.py - updated version numbers to 1.3.1 - added -cs and -cl options to help - added processing of Language field, to set script and language ID's with -cs and -cl options. makeotf/source/main.c - added macro to define MakeOTF version number, used in help message, and in client name string for name id 5 "Version" - added mac_script and mac_language fields to global static 'convert' structure - added processing of -cs and -cl arguments to parse_args() - added mac_script and mac_language arguments to call to cbconvert() - updated print_usage to match that of makeotf.py - updated the ReadFontInfo() to process new Language field makeotf/source/cb.c - moved initialization ( as type unknown) of mac.encoding, mac.script and mac.language from cbconvert to cbnew() - added setting of mac.script and mac.language to cbconvert(), from arguments. - added mac_script and mac_language arguments to call to cbconvert() source/includes/cb.h - added mac_script and mac_language arguments to call to cbconvert() Files changed in hotconvlib: coretype/source/map.c - changed logic for setting OS/2 codepage range to set code page to Simplified or Traditional Chinese based on mac.script setting; fall back on heuristics only if mac.script is not set. =============================================================================== Copyright 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009 Adobe Systems Inc.
