Font configuration and customization library
|
|
Version 2.3.95
|
|
2006-04-18
|
|
|
|
|
|
Check INSTALL for compilation and installation instructions.
|
|
Report bugs to https://bugs.freedesktop.org in the fontconfig module.
|
|
|
|
2.3.95
|
|
|
|
Match 'Standard Symbols L' for 'Symbol'. Add URW fonts as aliases for
|
|
all of the PostScript fonts. (reported by Miguel Rodriguez). Fix a
|
|
number of Coverity defects (Frederic Crozat). Speed up FcFontSort
|
|
(fix suggested by Kenichi Handa). Fix error with charsets. Survive
|
|
missing docbook2pdf. Compile on HP-UX, AIX, SGI and Windows (Cygwin,
|
|
MinGW). Fix intel compiler warnings. Fix multiarch support (don't
|
|
destroy multiarch files!) Require pkg-config. (Thanks Behdad; better
|
|
solution wanted for libxml2 detection!) Fix typos in orth files and
|
|
add orth for Lingala (reported by Denis Jacquerye). Remove debian/
|
|
directory. Add a configuration file that disables hinting for the
|
|
Lohit Gujarati font (since the hinting distorts some glyphs quite
|
|
badly). Sort directory entries while scanning them from disk;
|
|
prevents Heisenbugs due to file ordering in a directory (due to Egmont
|
|
Koblinger). Fix Wine's problem with finding fonts. (Reported by
|
|
Bernhard Rosenkraenzer.)
|
|
|
|
2.3.94
|
|
|
|
fc-cat can take directories as input and creates old-style fonts.cache
|
|
listings.
|
|
fc-cache takes -r --really-force which blows away all old caches and
|
|
regenerates.
|
|
Robustness fixes, integer overflow fixes (notably to cache handling
|
|
code), toast broken global cache files.
|
|
Change binary format to make it compatible with static langset
|
|
information (thanks to Takashi Iwai).
|
|
Open hashed caches before fonts.cache-2 (Takashi Iwai).
|
|
Fix FcFontSetMatch's algorithm, which used to unjustly kill fonts for
|
|
not declaring certain elements (Takashi Iwai).
|
|
Fix matching bug when multiple elements match; don't use
|
|
the sum of all scores, but the best score (James Su).
|
|
Make fc-lang more friendly to Windows systems.
|
|
Remove archaic chars from Georgian charset; add Euro character to
|
|
charsets for European languages.
|
|
Fix treatment of broken PCF fonts that don't declare family names.
|
|
Pass O_BINARY to open if appropriate (reported by Doodle).
|
|
Normalize font directories to the form in which they appear in
|
|
config files.
|
|
Add a record of the cached directory to the cache file.
|
|
Perf optimizations (Dirk Mueller; some reported by Michael Meeks.)
|
|
Don't loop infinitely on recursive symlinks.
|
|
Make 'make distcheck' work with automake 1.6.3.
|
|
Replace 'stamp' target with mkinstalldirs.
|
|
Don't stop scanning if a directory in fonts.conf doesn't exist,
|
|
because subsequent directories might exist.
|
|
Put directory names into global cache (reported by Ronny V. Vindenes).
|
|
Treat zh-hk fonts differently from zh-tw fonts. This patch may cause
|
|
fontconfig to treat A-X fonts differently from A-Y fonts; please mail
|
|
the fontconfig list if this causes any problems.
|
|
Fix for unaligned memory accesses (Andreas Schwab).
|
|
Fix treatment of cache directory as read from cache file; don't use
|
|
string equality to determine if we have the right file, use inode
|
|
equality.
|
|
Properly skip past dir caches that contain zero fonts, as occurs
|
|
in global caches (reported by Mike Fabian).
|
|
Print out full pathname in fc-match -v (reported by Frederic Crozat).
|
|
Fix bug where fc-match crashes when given __DUMMY__ property to
|
|
match on.
|
|
|
|
2.3.93
|
|
|
|
Create cache files in /var/cache/fontconfig with hashed filenames, if
|
|
possible, for added FHS compliance.
|
|
Make fc-cat read both per-directory and global cache files.
|
|
Add config file for Persian fonts from Sharif FarsiWeb, Inc.
|
|
Major performance improvements by Dirk Mueller, Stephen Kulow, and Michael Matz at SuSE: in particular, speed up FcFontSetMatch, and inline many functions.
|
|
Fix treatment of globs in config files, broken since 2.3.2 and discovered by Mathias Clasen.
|
|
Don't use freetype internal headers (patch by Matthias Clasen).
|
|
Further space improvements: create langsets statically, so that they can live in .rodata.
|
|
Properly align mmapped data structures to make e.g. ia64 happy.
|
|
Bug fixes.
|
|
|
|
2.3.92
|
|
|
|
Fix corrupted caches bugs from 2.3.91 (reported by Mike Fabian).
|
|
Store only basename in the cache, reconstitute on demand
|
|
(reported by James Cloos).
|
|
Change the rule for artificial emboldening in fonts.conf.in. This
|
|
enables the support for artificial emboldening included in cairo
|
|
(patch by Zhe Su).
|
|
Add FC_EMBEDDED_BITMAP object type to tell Xft/Cairo whether
|
|
to load embedded bitmaps or not (patch by Jinghua Luo).
|
|
Fix GCC4 warnings (some by Behdad Esfahbod).
|
|
Support localized font family and style names; this has been reported
|
|
to break old apps like xfd, but modern (gtk+/qt/mozilla) apps work
|
|
fine (patch by Zhe Su).
|
|
Prevent fc-list from escaping strings when printing them (reported by
|
|
Matthias Clasen).
|
|
Add valist sentinel markup for FcObjectSetBuild and
|
|
FcPatternBuild (patch by Marcus Meissner).
|
|
Add consts to variables so as to move arrays into .rodata (patch by
|
|
Ross Burton).
|
|
Modify config file to use Greek fonts before Asian fonts with
|
|
Greek glyphs. (patch by Simos Xenitellis).
|
|
Use libtool -no-undefined flag on all platforms (patch by Christian
|
|
Biesinger).
|
|
|
|
2.3.91
|
|
|
|
Use libxml2 if requested or if expat not available. (Mathias Hasselmann)
|
|
Fix multi-arch cache files: compute the position for the
|
|
block to be added using info from OrigFile, not NewFile. (plam)
|
|
Cast results of sizeof() to unsigned int to get rid of
|
|
warnings on x86_64 (reported by Matthias Clasen).
|
|
Use FcAtomic to rewrite cache files; don't unlink the fonts.cache-2
|
|
file even if there's no data to write; just write an empty cache file.
|
|
(Reported by Lubos Lunak)
|
|
Allocate room for the subdirectory names in each directory cache.
|
|
(Reported by James Cloos)
|
|

|
Fix memory leak of patterns rejected by configuration (#2518)
|
|
|
|
Create prototype /etc/fonts/conf.d directory and populate it with a few

|
|
numbers.
|
|
|
|
Update documentation.

Remove Han characters from Korean orthography (Tor Andersson)
|
|

2.2.97
|
|
|
|
Fc-cache sleeps before exiting to ensure filesystem timestamps are well
|
|
ordered.
|
|
|
|
Added Punjai orthography.
|
|
|
|
The timestamp in fonts.conf is gone now. Too many problems.
|
|
|
|
The default font path includes all of the X fonts; use selectfont/rejectfont
|
|
to eliminate bitmaps, as shown in the sample local.conf file.
|
|
|
|
<include> configuration elements may now reference a directory. Files
|
|
in that directory matching [0-9]* are loaded in UTF-8 collating sequence order.
|
|
|
|
<selectfont> configuration added to control which fonts are used.
|
|
|
|
fontformat font pattern elements built from the FT_Get_X11_Font_Format

|
|
|
'capability' list constructed from gsub/gpos and silf values in TrueType
|
|

Multi-lingual names (style, family, fullname) extracted and stored with
|
|
parallel <foo>lang properties marking language.
|
|
|
|
2.2.96
|
|
|
|
Fix FcConfigUpToDate to actually check all font directories and eliminate
|
|
a typo which completely prevented it from working (Lubos Lunak
|
|
<l.lunak@suse.cz>)
|
|
|
|
Remove comma at end of FcResult enum definition for picky compilers.
|
|
|
|
2.2.95
|
|
|
|
Add FcResultOutOfMemory so FcFontSetMatch can return accurate error.
|
|
|
|
Replace MIN/MAX/ABS macros which happened to be in old FreeType releases
|
|
with FC_MIN/FC_MAX/FC_ABS macros owned by fontconfig.
|
|
|
|
2.2.94
|
|
|
|
The 2.2.93 release was prepared with a broken libtool which created
|
|
the shared library without the '.so' in the file names.
|
|
|
|
2.2.93
|
|
|
|
This is the third prerelease of fontconfig 2.3. Significant changes from
|
|
2.2.92 are:
|
|
|
|
o Use new FreeType #include syntax
|
|
o use y_ppem field instead of 'height' in bitmap sizes rec -
|
|
FreeType changed the semantics. Still uses height for
|
|
older versions of FreeType
|
|
o Don't construct program manuals unless docbook is available
|
|
|
|
2.2.92
|
|
|
|
o make distcheck work
|
|
|
|
2.2.91
|
|
|
|
o Switch to SGML manuals
|
|
o Add FC_DUAL width spacing value
|
|
o Add FcFini to close out fontconfig and release all memory
|
|
|
|
2.2
|
|
|
|
This is the third public release of fontconfig, a font configuration and
|
|
customization library. Fontconfig is designed to locate fonts within the
|
|
system and select them according to requirements specified by applications.
|
|
|
|
Fontconfig is not a rasterization library, nor does it impose a particular
|
|
rasterization library on the application. The X-specific library
|
|
'Xft' uses fontconfig along with freetype to specify and rasterize fonts.
