The syntax to add any characters to the charset table looks like:
<match target="scan">
<test name="family">
<string>Buggy Sans</string>
</test>
<edit name="charset" mode="assign">
<plus>
<name>charset</name>
<charset>
<int>0x3220</int> <!-- PARENTHESIZED IDEOGRAPH ONE -->
</charset>
</plus>
</edit>
</match>
To remove any characters from the charset table:
<match target="scan">
<test name="family">
<string>Buggy Sans</string>
</test>
<edit name="charset" mode="assign">
<minus>
<name>charset</name>
<charset>
<int>0x06CC</int> <!-- ARABIC LETTER FARSI YEH -->
<int>0x06D2</int> <!-- ARABIC LETTER YEH BARREE -->
<int>0x06D3</int> <!-- ARABIC LETTER YEH BARREE WITH HAMZA ABOVE -->
</charset>
</minus>
</edit>
</match>
You could also use the range element for convenience:
...
<charset>
<int>0x06CC</int> <!-- ARABIC LETTER FARSI YEH -->
<range>
<int>0x06D2</int> <!-- ARABIC LETTER YEH BARREE -->
<int>0x06D3</int> <!-- ARABIC LETTER YEH BARREE WITH HAMZA ABOVE -->
</range>
</charset>
...
I can't understand why the special case is needed. Indeed, removing it
does not make any difference in the "fc-match --verbose" output, and
that's the only time fc-match uses FcPatternPrint.
Using a simple shell script that processes the public headers, two header
files are constructed that map public symbols to hidden internal aliases
avoiding the assocated PLT entry for referring to a public symbol.
A few mistakes in the FcPrivate/FcPublic annotations were also discovered
through this process
The Delicious family includes one named Delicious Heavy, a bold variant
which is unfortunately marked as having normal weight. Because the family
name is 'Delicious', fontconfig accidentally selects this font instead of
the normal weight variant. The fix here rewrites the scanned data by running
the scanned pattern through a new substitution sequence tagged with
<match target=scan>; a sample for the Delicious family is included to
demonstrate how it works (and fix Delicious at the same time).
Also added was a new match predicate -- the 'decorative' predicate which is
automatically detected in fonts by searching style names for key decorative
phrases like SmallCaps, Shadow, Embosed and Antiqua. Suggestions for
additional decorative key words are welcome. This should have little effect
on font matching except when two fonts share the same characteristics except
for this value.
FcCharSetSerialize was computing the offset to the unserialized leaf,
which left it pointing at random data when the cache was reloaded.
fc-cat has been updated to work with the new cache structure.
Various debug messages extended to help diagnose serialization errors.
Replace all of the bank/id pairs with simple offsets, recode several
data structures to always use offsets inside the library to avoid
conditional paths. Exposed data structures use pointers to hold offsets,
setting the low bit to distinguish between offset and pointer.
Use offset-based data structures for lang charset encodings; eliminates
separate data structure format for that file.
Much testing will be needed; offsets are likely not detected everywhere in
the library yet.
Crozat.
Fix bug where fc-match crashes when given __DUMMY__ property to match on.
(I added the __DUMMY__ string to enable callers of FcObjectToPtrLookup to
distinguish an error return from a successful return. -PL)

and distribute bytes for each directory from a single malloc for that
directory. Store pointers as differences between the data pointed to
and the pointer's address (s_off = s - v). Don't serialize data
structures that never actually get serialized. Separate strings used
for keys from strings used for values (in FcPatternElt and FcValue,
respectively). Bump FC_CACHE_VERSION to 2.
This patch allows the fundamental fontconfig data structures to be
serialized. I've converted everything from FcPattern down to be able to
use *Ptr objects, which can be either static or dynamic (using a union
which either contains a pointer or an index) and replaced storage of
pointers in the heap with the appropriate *Ptr object. I then changed
all writes of pointers to the heap with a *CreateDynamic call, which
creates a dynamic Ptr object pointing to the same object as before.
This way, the fundamental fontconfig semantics should be unchanged; I
did not have to change external signatures this way, although I did
change some internal signatures. When given a *Ptr object, just run *U
to get back to a normal pointer; it gives the right answer regardless
of whether we're using static or dynamic storage.
I've also implemented a Fc*Serialize call. Calling FcFontSetSerialize
converts the dynamic FcFontSets contained in the config object to
static FcFontSets and also converts its dependencies (e.g. everything
you'd need to write to disk) to static objects. Note that you have to
call Fc*PrepareSerialize first; this call will count the number of
objects that actually needs to be allocated, so that we can avoid
realloc. The Fc*Serialize calls then check the static pointers for
nullness, and allocate the buffers if necessary. I've tested the
execution of fc-list and fc-match after Fc*Serialize and they appear to
work the same way.
LISTING requires that the font Contain all of the pattern values, where
Contain is redefined for strings to mean precise matching (so that
Courier 10 Pitch doesn't list Courier fonts)
"Contains" for lang means both langs have the same language and either the
same country or one is missing the country
