|
||
Monday, June 27, 2022
|
||
====================================
|
||
- Caching of variable fonts shaping, in particular when using HarfBuzz’s own
|
||
font loading functions (ot). Bringing performance of variable shaping in par
|
||
with non-variable fonts shaping. (Behdad Esfahbod)
|
||
- Caching of format 2 “Contextual Substitution” and “Chained Contexts
|
||
Substitution” lookups. Resulting in up to 20% speedup of lookup-heavy fonts
|
||
like Gulzar or Noto Nastaliq Urdu. (Behdad Esfahbod)
|
||
- Improved ANSI output from hb-view. (Behdad Esfahbod)
|
||
- Support for shaping legacy, pre-OpenType Windows 3.1-era, Arabic fonts that
|
||
relied on a fixed PUA encoding. (Khaled Hosny, Behdad Esfahbod)
|
||
- Sinhala script is now shaped by the USE shaper instead of “indic” one.
|
||
(Behdad Esfahbod, David Corbett)
|
||
- Thai shaper improvements. (David Corbett)
|
||
- hb-ot-name API supports approximate BCP-47 language matching, for example
|
||
asking for “en_US” in a font that has only “en” names will return them.
|
||
(Behdad Esfahbod)
|
||
- Optimized TrueType glyph shape loading. (Behdad Esfahbod)
|
||
- Fix subsetting of HarfBuzz faces created via hb_face_create_for_tables().
|
||
(Garret Rieger)
|
||

Overview of changes leading to 4.3.0
|
||
Friday, May 20, 2022
|
||
====================================
|
||
- Major speed up in loading and subsetting fonts, especially in
|
||
handling CFF table. Subsetting some fonts is now 3 times faster.
|
||
(Behdad Esfahbod, Garret Rieger)
|
||
- Speed up blending CFF2 table. (Behdad Esfahbod)
|
||
- Speed up hb_ot_tags_from_language(). (Behdad Esfahbod, David Corbett)

|
||
Sunday, April 24, 2022
|
||
====================================

|
||
Overview of changes leading to 4.2.0
|
||
Wednesday, March 30, 2022
|
||
====================================
|
||
- Source code reorganization, splitting large hb-ot-layout files into smaller,
|
||
per-subtable ones under OT/Layout/*. Code for more tables will follow suit in
|
||
later releases. (Garret Rieger, Behdad Esfahbod)
|
||
- Revert Indic shaper change in previous release that broke some fonts and
|
||
instead make per-syllable restriction of “GSUB” application limited to
|
||
script-specific Indic features, while applying them and discretionary
|
||
features in one go. (Behdad Esfahbod)
|
||
- Fix decoding of private in gvar table. (Behdad Esfahbod)
|
||
- Fix handling of contextual lookups that delete too many glyphs. (Behdad Esfahbod)
|

|
||
- Make fallback vertical-origin match FreeType’s. (Behdad Esfahbod)
|
||
- Treat visible viramas like dependent vowels in USE shaper. (David Corbett)

||
- Various bug fixes.
|
||
|
||
- New API
|
||
+hb_set_add_sorted_array() (Andrew John)
|

|
||
|
||
Overview of changes leading to 4.0.1
|
||
Friday, March 11, 2022
|
||
====================================
|
||
- Update OpenType to AAT mappings for “hist” and “vrtr” features.
|
||
(Florian Pircher)
|
||
- Update IANA Language Subtag Registry to 2022-03-02. (David Corbett)
|
||
- Update USE shaper to allow any non-numeric tail in a symbol cluster, and
|
||
remove obsolete data overrides. (David Corbett)
|
||
- Fix handling of baseline variations to return correctly scaled values.
|
||
(Matthias Clasen)
|
||
- A new experimental hb_subset_repack_or_fail() to repack an array of objects,
|
||
eliminating offset overflows. The API is not available unless HarfBuzz is
|
||
built with experimental APIs enabled. (Qunxin Liu)
|
||
|
||
- New experimental API
|
||
+hb_link_t
|
||
+hb_object_t
|
||
+hb_subset_repack_or_fail()
|
||
|
||
|
||
Overview of changes leading to 4.0.0
|
||
Tuesday, March 1, 2022
|
||
====================================
|
||
- New public API to create subset plan and gather information on things like
|
||
glyph mappings in the final subset. The plan can then be passed on to perform
|
||
the subsetting operation. (Garret Rieger)
|
||
- Draw API for extracting glyph shapes have been extended and finalized and is
|
||
no longer an experimental API. The draw API supports glyf, CFF and CFF2
|
||
glyph outlines tables, and applies variation settings set on the font as well
|
||
as synthetic slant. The new public API is not backward compatible with the
|
||
previous, non-public, experimental API. (Behdad Esfahbod)
|
||
- The hb-view tool will use HarfBuzz draw API to render the glyphs instead of
|
||
cairo-ft when compiled with Cairo 1.17.5 or newer, setting HB_DRAW
|
||
environment variable to 1 or 0 will force using or not use the draw API,
|
||
respectively. (Behdad Esfahbod)
|
||
- The hb-shape and hb-view tools now default to using HarfBuzz’s own font
|
||
loading functions (ot) instead of FreeType ones (ft). They also have a new
|
||
option, --font-slant, to apply synthetic slant to the font. (Behdad Esfahbod)
|
||
- HarfBuzz now supports more than 65535 (the OpenType limit) glyph shapes and
|
||
metrics. See https://github.com/be-fonts/boring-expansion-spec/issues/6 and
|
||
https://github.com/be-fonts/boring-expansion-spec/issues/7 for details.
|
||
(Behdad Esfahbod)
|
||
- New API to get the dominant horizontal baseline tag for a given script.
|
||
(Behdad Esfahbod)
|
||
- New API to get the baseline positions from the font, and synthesize missing
|
||
ones. As well as new API to get font metrics and synthesize missing ones.
|
||
(Matthias Clasen)
|
||
- Improvements to finding dependencies on Windows when building with Visual
|
||
Studio. (Chun-wei Fan)
|
||
- New buffer flag, HB_BUFFER_FLAG_PRODUCE_UNSAFE_TO_CONCAT, that must be set
|
||
during shaping for HB_GLYPH_FLAG_UNSAFE_TO_CONCAT flag to be reliably
|
||
produced. This is to limit the performance hit of producing this flag to when
|
||
it is actually needed. (Behdad Esfahbod)
|
||
- Documentation improvements. (Matthias Clasen)
|
||
|
||
- New API

====================================
|
||
- Unicode 14.0 support (David Corbett).
|
||
- The hb-subset API and the harfbuzz-subset library's ABI are now declared
|
||
stable. The harfbuzz-subset library would not have been possible without the

|
||
Tuesday, September 7, 2021
|
||
====================================
|
||
- Final subset API is in place and if no issues are discovered, it will be the
|
||
stable subset API of HarfBuzz 3.0.0. Old API is kept to ease transition, but
|
||
will be removed in 3.0.0.
|
||
- Various fuzzer-found bug fixes.
|
||
- hb_buffer_append() now handles the pre- and post-context which previously
|
||
were left unchanged in the destination buffer.
|
||
- hb-view / hb-shape now accept following new arguments:
|
||
o --unicodes-before/after: takes a list of hex numbers that represent Unicode
|
||
codepoints.

Wednesday, August 18, 2021
|
||
History Repeats Itself (Afghanistan)
|
||
====================================
|
||
- Subsetter API is being stabilized, with the first stable API to happen in
|
||
3.0.0 release (https://github.com/harfbuzz/harfbuzz/issues/3078).
|
||
- Support multiple variation axes with same tag, aka HOI.
|
||
- The “coretext” testing shaper now passes font variations to CoreText.
|
||
- hb-shape/hb-view does not break line at new lines unless text is read from
|
||
file.
|
||
- hb-view and hb-subset has a --batch now, similar to hb-shape.
|
||
- The --batch mode now uses ; as argument separator instead of : used previously.
|
||
- The --batch in hb-shape does not expect 0th argument anymore. That is, the
|
||
lines read are interpreted as argv[1:], instead of argv[0:].
|
||
- The --batch option has been undocumented. We are ready to document it; send
|
||
feedback if you find it useful.
|
||
- hb-subset got arguments revamps. Added much-requested --gids-file, --glyphs,
|
||
--glyphs-file, --unicodes-file, supporting ranges in --unicodes.
|
||
- Various bug fixes.

|
||
- Remove AAT's `lcar` table support from _get_ligature_carets API, not even much

||
use on macOS installed fonts (only two files). GDEF support is the recommended
|
||
one and expected to work properly after issues fixed two releases ago.
|
||
- Minor memory fixes to handle OOM better specially in hb-ft.
|
||
- Minor .so files versioning scheme change and remove stable/unstable scheme
|
||
differences, was never used in practice (always default to stable scheme).

|
||
https://github.com/harfbuzz/harfbuzz/wiki/Notes-on-migration-to-meson
|
||
for more information.
|
||
- Distribution package URL is changed, either use GitHub generated tarballs,

||
Automatically used if GSUB/GPOS are not available respectively.
|
||
Set HB_OPTIONS=aat env var to have morx/kerx preferred over
|
||
GSUB/GPOS.
|
||
- Apply TrueType kern table internally, instead of relying on
|
||
hb_font_t callbacks.
|
||

|
||
- Misc USE and Indic fixes.
|
||
- Misc everything fixes.
|
||
- Too many things to list. Biggest release since 0.9.1, with
|
||
over 500 commits in just over 5 weeks! Didn't intend it to
|
||
be a big release. Just happened to become.
|
||
- hb-ft now locks underlying FT_Face during use.
|
||
|
||
API changes:
|
||
|
||
- Newly-created hb_font_t's now have our internal "hb-ot-font"
|
||
callbacks set on them, so they should work out of the box
|
||
without any callbacks set. If callbacks are set, everything
|
||
is back to what it was before, the fallback callbacks are
|
||
null. If you to get the internal implementation modified,
|
||
sub_font it.
|
||
|
||

|
||
up character to glyph mapping.

Overview of changes leading to 1.9.0
|
||
Monday, September 10, 2018
|
||
====================================
|
||
- Added 'cmap' API to hb_face_t.
|
||
- Face-builder API.
|
||
- hb-ot-font re-creation should be much leaner now, as the
|
||
font tables it uses are cached on hb_face_t now.
|
||
- Internal source header file name changes:
|
||
hb-*-private.hh is renamed to hb-*.hh.
|
||
|
||
New API:
|
||
+HB_UNICODE_MAX
|

Overview of changes leading to 1.8.8
|
||
Tuesday, August 14, 2018
|
||
====================================
|
||
- Fix hb-icu crash on architectures where compare_exchange_weak() can
|
||
fail falsely. This bug was introduced in 1.8.4.
|
||
https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=873568
|
||
- More internal refactoring of atomic operations and singletons.
|
||
- API changes:
|
||
The following functions do NOT reference their return value before
|
||
returning:
|
||
* hb_unicode_funcs_get_default()
|
||
* hb_glib_get_unicode_funcs()
|
||
* hb_icu_get_unicode_funcs()
|
||
This is consistent with their naming ("get", instead of "reference")
|
||
as well as how they are used in the wild (ie. no one calls destroy()
|
||
on their return value.)

||
Friday, October the 13th, 2017
|
||
====================================
|
||
|
||
- Update to Unicode 10.
|
||
|
||
- Various Indic and Universal Shaping Engine fixes as a result of
|
||
HarfBuzz Hackfest with Jonathan Kew at Web Engines Hackfest at

Overview of changes leading to 1.5.1
|
||
Tuesday, September 5, 2017
|
||
====================================
|
||
|
||
- Fix "unsafe-to-break" in fallback shaping and other corner cases.
|
||
All our tests pass with --verify now, meaning unsafe-to-break API
|
||
works as expected.
|
||
- Add --unicodes to hb-view / hb-shape.
|
||
- [indic] Treat Consonant_With_Stacker as consonant. This will need
|
||
further tweaking.
|

|
||
Overview of changes leading to 1.5.0
|
||
Wednesday, August 23, 2017
|
||
====================================
|
||
|
||
- Misc new API, for appending a buffer to another, and for comparing
|
||
contents of two buffers for types of differences.
|
||
|
||
- New "unsafe-to-break" API. Can be used to speed up reshaping
|
||
in line-breaking situations. Essentially, after shaping, it returns
|
||
positions in the input string (some of the cluster boundaries) that
|
||
are "safe to break" in that if the text is segmented at that position
|
||
and two sides reshaped and concatenated, the shaping result is
|
||
exactly the same as shaping the text in one piece.
|
||
|
||
hb-view and hb-shape and hb-shape now take --verify, which verifies
|
||
the above property.
|
||
|
||
Some corner cases of the implementation are still not quite working.
|
||
Those will be fixed in subsequent releases.
|
||
|
||
- New API:
|
||
|
||
hb_buffer_append()
|
||
|
||
hb_glyph_flags_t
|
||

|
||
- hb-shape and hb-view now accept --variations.
|
||
- New API:
|
||
|
||
hb_variation_t
|
||
hb_variation_from_string()
|
||

Overview of changes leading to 1.4.1
|
||
Thursday, January 5, 2017
|
||

|
||
|
||
- Always build and use UCDN for Unicode data by default.
|
||
Reduces dependence on version of Unicode data in glib,
|
||
specially in the Windows bundles we are shipping, which
|
||
have very old glib.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Overview of changes leading to 1.4.0
|
||
Thursday, January 5, 2017
|
||
====================================
|
||
|
||
- Merged "OpenType GX" branch which adds core of support for
|
||
OpenType 1.8 Font Variations. To that extent, the relevant
|
||
new API is:
|
||
|
||
New API:
|
||
hb_font_set_var_coords_normalized()
|
||
|
||
with supporting API:
|
||
|
||
New API:
|
||
HB_OT_LAYOUT_NO_VARIATIONS_INDEX
|
||
hb_ot_layout_table_find_feature_variations()
|
||
hb_ot_layout_feature_with_variations_get_lookups()
|
||
hb_shape_plan_create2()
|
||

|
||
|
||
Currently variations in GSUB/GPOS/GDEF are fully supported,
|
||
and no other tables are supported. In particular, fvar/avar
|
||
are NOT supported, hence the hb_font_set_var_coords_normalized()
|
||
taking normalized coordinates. API to take design coordinates
|
||
will be added in the future.
|
||
|
||
HVAR/VVAR/MVAR support will also be added to hb-ot-font in the
|
||
future.
|
||
|
||
- Fix regression in GDEF glyph class processing.
|
||
- Add decompositions for Chakma, Limbu, and Balinese in USE shaper.

Overview of changes leading to 1.3.0
|
||
Thursday, July 21, 2016
|
||
====================================
|
||
|
||
- Update to Unicode 9.0.0
|
||
- Move Javanese from Indic shaper to Universal Shaping Engine.
|
||
- Allow MultipleSubst to delete a glyph (matching Windows engine).
|
||
- Update Universal Shaping Engine to latest draft from Microsoft.
|
||
- DirectWrite backend improvements. Note: this backend is for testing ONLY.
|
||
- CoreText backend improvements with unreachable fonts.
|
||
- Implement symbol fonts (cmap 3.0.0) in hb-ft and hb-ot-font.
|
||
- Blacklist bad GDEF of more fonts (Tahoma & others).
|
||
- Misc fixes.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Overview of changes leading to 1.2.7
|
||
Monday, May 2, 2016
|
||
====================================
|
||
|
||
- Blacklist another version of Times New Roman (Bold) Italic from Windows 7.
|
||
- Fix Mongolian Free Variation Selectors shaping with certain fonts.
|
||
- Fix Tibetan shorthand contractions shaping.
|
||
- Improved list of language tag mappings.
|
||
- Unbreak build on Windows CE.
|
||
- Make 'glyf' table loading lazy in hb-ot-font.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Overview of changes leading to 1.2.6
|
||
Friday, April 8, 2016
|
||
====================================
|
||
|
||
- Blacklist GDEF table of another set of Times New Roman (Bold) Italic.
|
||
- DirectWrite backend improvements. Note: DirectWrite backend is
|
||
exclusively for our internal testing and should NOT be used in any
|
||
production system whatsoever.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Overview of changes leading to 1.2.5
|
||
Monday, April 4, 2016
|
||
====================================
|
||
|
||
- Fix GDEF mark-filtering-set, which was broken in 1.2.3.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Overview of changes leading to 1.2.4
|
||
Thursday, March 17, 2016
|
||
====================================
|
||
|
||
- Synthesize GDEF glyph class for any glyph that does not have one in GDEF.
|
||
I really hope we don't discover broken fonts that shape badly with this
|
||
change.
|
||
- Misc build and other minor fixes.
|
||
- API changes:
|
||
- Added HB_NDEBUG. It's fine for production systems to define this to
|
||
disable high-overhead debugging checks. However, I also reduced the
|
||
overhead of those checks, so it's a non-issue right now. You can
|
||
forget it. Just not defining anything at all is fine.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Overview of changes leading to 1.2.3
|
||
Thursday, February 25, 2016
|
||
====================================
|
||
|
||
- Blacklist GDEF table of certain versions of Times New Roman (Bold) Italic,
|
||
due to bug in glyph class of ASCII double-quote character. This should
|
||
address "regression" introduced in 1.2.0 when we switched mark zeroing
|
||
in most shapers from BY_UNICODE_LATE to BY_GDEF_LATE.
|
||
This fourth release in a week should finally stabilize things...
|
||
|
||
- hb-ot-font's get_glyph() implementation saw some optimizations. Though,
|
||
might be really hard to measure in real-world situations.
|
||
|
||
- Also, two rather small API changes:
|
||
|
||
We now disable some time-consuming internal bookkeeping if built with NDEBUG
|
||
defined. This is a first time that we use NDEBUG to disable debug code. If
|
||
there exist production systems that do NOT want to enable NDEBUG, please let
|
||
me know and I'll add HB_NDEBUG.
|
||
|
||
Added get_nominal_glyph() and get_variation_glyph() instead of get_glyph()
|
||
|
||
New API:
|
||
- hb_font_get_nominal_glyph_func_t
|
||
- hb_font_get_variation_glyph_func_t
|
||
- hb_font_funcs_set_nominal_glyph_func()
|
||
- hb_font_funcs_set_variation_glyph_func()
|
||
- hb_font_get_nominal_glyph()
|
||
- hb_font_get_variation_glyph()
|
||
|
||
Deprecated API:
|
||
- hb_font_get_glyph_func_t
|
||
- hb_font_funcs_set_glyph_func()
|
||
|
||
Clients that implement their own font-funcs are encouraged to replace
|
||
their get_glyph() implementation with a get_nominal_glyph() and
|
||
get_variation_glyph() pair. The variation version can assume that
|
||
variation_selector argument is not zero. Old (deprecated) functions
|
||
will continue working indefinitely using internal gymnastics; it is
|
||
just more efficient to use the new functions.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Overview of changes leading to 1.2.2
|
||
Wednesday, February 24, 2016
|
||
====================================
|
||
|
||
- Fix regression with mark positioning with fonts that have
|
||
non-zero mark advances. This was introduced in 1.2.0 while
|
||
trying to make mark and cursive attachments to work together.
|
||
I have partially reverted that, so this version is much more
|
||
like what we had before. All clients who updated to 1.2.0
|
||
should update to this version.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Overview of changes leading to 1.2.1
|
||
Tuesday, February 23, 2016
|
||
====================================
|
||
|
||
- CoreText: Fix bug with wrong scale if font scale was changed later.
|
||
https://github.com/libass/libass/issues/212
|
||
- CoreText: Drastically speed up font initialization.
|
||
- CoreText: Fix tiny leak.
|
||
- Group ZWJ/ZWNJ with previous syllable under cluster-level=0.
|
||
https://github.com/harfbuzz/harfbuzz/issues/217
|
||
- Add test/shaping/README.md about how to add tests to the suite.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Overview of changes leading to 1.2.0
|
||
Friday, February 19, 2016
|
||
====================================
|
||
|
||
- Fix various issues (hangs mostly) in case of memory allocation failure.
|
||
- Change mark zeroing types of most shapers from BY_UNICODE_LATE to
|
||
BY_GDEF_LATE. This seems to be what Uniscribe does.
|
||
- Change mark zeroing of USE shaper from NONE to BY_GDEF_EARLY. That's
|
||
what Windows does.
|
||
- Allow GPOS cursive connection on marks, and fix the interaction with
|
||
mark attachment. This work resulted in some changes to how mark
|
||
attachments work. See:
|
||
https://github.com/harfbuzz/harfbuzz/issues/211
|
||
https://github.com/harfbuzz/harfbuzz/commit/86c68c7a2c971efe8e35b1f1bd99401dc8b688d2
|
||
- Graphite2 shaper: improved negative advance handling (eg. Nastaliq).
|
||
- Add nmake-based build system for Windows.
|
||
- Minor speedup.
|
||
- Misc. improvements.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Overview of changes leading to 1.1.3
|
||
Monday, January 11, 2016
|
||
====================================
|
||
|
||
- Ported Indic shaper to Unicode 8.0 data.
|
||
- Universal Shaping Engine fixes.
|
||
- Speed up CoreText shaper when font fallback happens in CoreText.
|
||
- Documentation improvements, thanks to Khaled Hosny.
|
||
- Very rough directwrite shaper for testing, thanks to Ebrahim Byagowi.
|
||
- Misc bug fixes.
|
||
- New API:
|
||
|
||
* Font extents:
|
||
hb_font_extents_t
|
||
hb_font_get_font_extents_func_t
|
||
hb_font_get_font_h_extents_func_t
|
||
hb_font_get_font_v_extents_func_t
|
||
hb_font_funcs_set_font_h_extents_func
|
||
hb_font_funcs_set_font_v_extents_func
|
||
hb_font_get_h_extents
|
||
hb_font_get_v_extents
|
||
hb_font_get_extents_for_direction
|
||
|
||
* Buffer message (aka debug):
|
||
hb_buffer_message_func_t
|
||
hb_buffer_set_message_func()
|
||
Actual message protocol to be fleshed out later.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Overview of changes leading to 1.1.2
|
||
Wednesday, November 26, 2015
|
||
====================================
|
||
|
||
- Fix badly-broken fallback shaper that affected terminology.
|
||
https://github.com/harfbuzz/harfbuzz/issues/187
|
||
- Fix y_scaling in Graphite shaper.
|
||
- API changes:
|
||
* An unset glyph_h_origin() function in font-funcs now (sensibly)
|
||
implies horizontal origin at 0,0. Ie, the nil callback returns
|
||
true instead of false. As such, implementations that have a
|
||
glyph_h_origin() that simply returns true, can remove that function
|
||
with HarfBuzz >= 1.1.2. This results in a tiny speedup.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Overview of changes leading to 1.1.1
|
||
Wednesday, November 24, 2015
|
||
====================================

||
====================================
|
||
|
||
- Implement 'stch' stretch feature for Syriac Abbreviation Mark.
|
||
https://github.com/harfbuzz/harfbuzz/issues/141
|
||
- Disable use of decompose_compatibility() callback.
|
||
- Implement "shaping" of various Unicode space characters, even
|
||
if the font does not support them.
|
||
https://github.com/harfbuzz/harfbuzz/issues/153
|
||
- If font does not support U+2011 NO-BREAK HYPHEN, fallback to
|
||
U+2010 HYPHEN.
|
||
- Changes resulting from libFuzzer continuous fuzzing:
|
||
* Reject font tables that need more than 8 edits,
|
||
* Bound buffer growth during shaping to 32x,
|
||
* Fix assertions and other issues at OOM / buffer max-growth.
|
||
- Misc fixes and optimizations.
|
||
- API changes:
|
||
* All fonts created with hb_font_create() now inherit from
|
||
(ie. have parent) hb_font_get_empty().
|
||
|
||
|
||
Overview of changes leading to 1.0.6
|
||
Thursday, October 15, 2015
|
||
====================================
|
||
|
||
- Reduce max nesting level in OT lookups from 8 to 6.
|
||
Should not affect any real font as far as I know.
|
||
- Fix memory access issue in ot-font.
|
||
- Revert default load-flags of fonts created using hb_ft_font_create()
|
||
back to FT_LOAD_DEFAULT|FT_LOAD_NO_HINTING. This was changed in
|
||
last release (1.0.5), but caused major issues, so revert.
|
||
https://github.com/harfbuzz/harfbuzz/issues/143
|
||
|
||
|
||
Overview of changes leading to 1.0.5
|
||
Tuesday, October 13, 2015
|
||
====================================
|
||
|
||
- Fix multiple memory access bugs discovered using libFuzzer.
|
||
https://github.com/harfbuzz/harfbuzz/issues/139
|
||
Everyone should upgrade to this version as soon as possible.
|
||
We now have continuous fuzzing set up, to avoid issues like
|
||
these creeping in again.
|
||
- Misc fixes.
|
||
|
||
- New API:
|
||
* hb_font_set_parent().
|
||
* hb_ft_font_[sg]et_load_flags()
|
||
The default flags for fonts created using hb_ft_font_create()
|
||
has changed to default to FT_LOAD_DEFAULT now. Previously it
|
||
was defaulting to FT_LOAD_DFEAULT|FT_LOAD_NO_HINTING.
|
||
|
||
- API changes:
|
||
* Fonts now default to units-per-EM as their scale, instead of 0.
|
||
* hb_font_create_sub_font() does NOT make parent font immutable
|
||
anymore. hb_font_make_immutable() does.
|
||
|
||

- Misc build fixes.
|
||
|

|
||
=====================================
|

- Misc build fixes.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Overview of changes leading to 0.9.38
|
||
Friday, January 23, 2015
|
||
=====================================
|
||
|
||
- Fix minor out-of-bounds access in Indic shaper.
|
||
- Change New Tai Lue shaping engine from South-East Asian to default,
|
||
reflecting change in Unicode encoding model.

|
||
x / y size.
|
||
- Fix CoreText and FreeType scale issues with negative scales.
|
||
- Reject blobs larger than 2GB. This might break some icu-le-hb clients
|
||
that need security fixes. See:
|
||
http://www.icu-project.org/trac/ticket/11450
|
||
- Avoid accessing font tables during face destruction, in casce rogue
|
||
clients released face data already.
|
||
- Fix up gobject-introspection a bit. Python bindings kinda working.
|
||
See README.python.
|
||
- Misc fixes.

|
||
- Indic: Allow ZWJ/ZWNJ before syllable modifiers.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Overview of changes leading to 0.9.36
|
||
Thursday, November 20, 2014
|
||
=====================================
|
||
|
||
- First time that three months went by without a release since
|
||
0.9.2 was released on August 10, 2012!
|
||
- Fix performance bug in hb_ot_collect_glyphs():
|
||
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1090869
|
||
- Add basic vertical-text support to hb-ot-font.
|
||
- Misc build fixes.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Overview of changes leading to 0.9.35
|
||
Saturday, August 13, 2014
|
||
=====================================
|
||
|
||
- Fix major shape-plan caching bug when more than one shaper were
|
||
provided to hb_shape_full() (as exercised by XeTeX).
|
||
http://www.mail-archive.com/debian-bugs-dist@lists.debian.org/msg1246370.html
|
||
- Fix Arabic fallback shaping regression. This was broken in 0.9.32.
|
||
- Major hb-coretext fixes. That backend is complete now, including
|
||
respecing buffer direction and language, down to vertical writing.
|
||
- Build fixes for Windows CE. Should build fine now.
|
||
- Misc fixes:
|
||
Use atexit() only if it's safe to call from shared library
|
||
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=82246
|
||
Mandaic had errors in its Unicode Joining_Type
|
||
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=82306
|
||
- API changes:
|
||
|
||
* hb_buffer_clear_contents() does not reset buffer flags now.
|
||
|
||
After 763e5466c0a03a7c27020e1e2598e488612529a7, one doesn't
|
||
need to set flags for different pieces of text. The flags now
|
||
are something the client sets up once, depending on how it
|
||
actually uses the buffer. As such, don't clear it in
|
||
clear_contents().
|
||
|
||
I don't expect any changes to be needed to any existing client.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Overview of changes leading to 0.9.34
|
||
Saturday, August 2, 2014
|
||
=====================================
|
||
|
||
- hb_feature_from_string() now accepts CSS font-feature-settings format.
|
||
- As a result, hb-shape / hb-view --features also accept CSS-style strings.
|
||
Eg, "'liga' off" is accepted now.
|
||
- Add old-spec Myanmar shaper:
|
||
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=81775
|
||
- Don't apply 'calt' in Hangul shaper.
|
||
- Fix mark advance zeroing for Hebrew shaper:
|
||
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=76767
|
||
- Implement Windows-1256 custom Arabic shaping. Only built on Windows,
|
||
and requires help from get_glyph(). Used by Firefox.
|
||
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1045139
|
||
- Disable 'liga' in vertical text.
|
||
- Build fixes.
|
||
- API changes:
|
||
|
||
* Make HB_BUFFER_FLAG_BOT/EOT easier to use.
|
||
|
||
Previously, we expected users to provide BOT/EOT flags when the
|
||
text *segment* was at paragraph boundaries. This meant that for
|
||
clients that provide full paragraph to HarfBuzz (eg. Pango), they
|
||
had code like this:
|
||
|
||
hb_buffer_set_flags (hb_buffer,
|
||
(item_offset == 0 ? HB_BUFFER_FLAG_BOT : 0) |
|
||
(item_offset + item_length == paragraph_length ?
|
||
HB_BUFFER_FLAG_EOT : 0));
|
||
|
||
hb_buffer_add_utf8 (hb_buffer,
|
||
paragraph_text, paragraph_length,
|
||
item_offset, item_length);
|
||
|
||
After this change such clients can simply say:
|
||
|
||
hb_buffer_set_flags (hb_buffer,
|
||
HB_BUFFER_FLAG_BOT | HB_BUFFER_FLAG_EOT);
|
||
|
||
hb_buffer_add_utf8 (hb_buffer,
|
||
paragraph_text, paragraph_length,
|
||
item_offset, item_length);
|
||
|
||
Ie, HarfBuzz itself checks whether the segment is at the beginning/end
|
||
of the paragraph. Clients that only pass item-at-a-time to HarfBuzz
|
||
continue not setting any flags whatsoever.
|
||
|
||
Another way to put it is: if there's pre-context text in the buffer,
|
||
HarfBuzz ignores the BOT flag. If there's post-context, it ignores
|
||
EOT flag.
|
||
|

Overview of changes leading to 0.9.31
|
||
Wednesday, July 16, 2014
|
||
=====================================
|
||
|
||
- Only accept valid UTF-8/16/32; we missed many cases before.
|
||
- Better shaping of invalid UTF-8/16/32. Falls back to
|
||
U+FFFD REPLACEMENT CHARACTER now.
|
||
- With all changes in this release, the buffer will contain fully
|
||
valid Unicode after hb_buffer_add_utf8/16/32 no matter how
|
||
broken the input is. This can be overridden though. See below.
|
||
- Fix Mongolian Variation Selectors for fonts without GDEF.
|
||
- Fix minor invalid buffer access.
|
||
- Accept zh-Hant and zh-Hans language tags. hb_ot_tag_to_language()
|
||
now uses these instead of private tags.
|
||
- Build fixes.
|
||
- New API:
|
||
* hb_buffer_add_codepoints(). This does what hb_buffer_add_utf32()
|
||
used to do, ie. no validity check on the input at all. add_utf32
|
||
now replaces invalid Unicode codepoints with the replacement
|
||
character (see below).
|
||
* hb_buffer_set_replacement_codepoint()
|
||
* hb_buffer_get_replacement_codepoint()
|
||
Previously, in hb_buffer_add_utf8 and hb_buffer_add_utf16, when
|
||
we detected broken input, we replaced that with (hb_codepoint_t)-1.
|
||
This has changed to use U+FFFD now, but can be changed using these
|
||
new API.
|
||
|
||

contain no contents. By next release hopefully we have
|
||
some content in. Enable using --enable-gtk-doc.
|
||
|
||
GObject and Introspection:
|
||
- Added harfbuzz-gobject library (hb-gobject.h) that has type
|
||
bindings for all HarfBuzz objects and enums. Enable using
|
||
--with-gobject.
|
||
- Added gobject-introspection boilerplate. Nothing useful
|
||
right now. Work in progress. Gets enabled automatically if
|
||
--with-gobject is used. Override with --disable-introspection.
|
||
|
||
OpenType shaper:
|
||
- Apply 'mark' in Myanmar shaper.
|
||
- Don't apply 'dlig' by default.

Overview of changes leading to 0.9.18
|
||
Tuesday, May 28, 2013
|
||
=====================================
|
||
|
||
New build system:
|
||
|
||
- All unneeded code is all disabled by default,
|
||
|
||
- Uniscribe and CoreText shapers can be enabled with their --with options,
|
||
|
||
- icu_le and old shapers cannot be enabled for now,
|
||
|
||
- glib, freetype, and cairo will be detected automatically.
|
||
They can be force on/off'ed with their --with options,
|
||
|
||
- icu and graphite2 are default off, can be enabled with their --with
|
||
options,
|
||
|
||
Moreover, ICU support is now build into a separate library:
|
||
libharfbuzz-icu.so, and a new harfbuzz-icu.pc is shipped for it.
|
||
Distros can enable ICU now without every application on earth
|
||
getting linked to via libharfbuzz.so.
|
||
|
||
For distros I recommend that they make sure they are building --with-glib
|
||
--with-freetype --with-cairo, --with-icu, and optionally --with-graphite2;
|
||
And package harfbuzz and harfbuzz-icu separately.
|
||
|
||

Overview of changes leading to 0.9.13
|
||
Thursday, February 25, 2013

|
||
* New Win8-style Myanmar shaper,
|
||

|
||
matching GSUB/GPOS lookups,
|
||
* Fix 'Phags-Pa U+A872 shaping,
|

* Fix partial disabling of default-on features,
|
||

|
||
- Fix possible crasher with broken fonts with overlapping tables.
|
||
- Removed generated files from git again. So, one needs ragel to
|
||
bootstrap from the git tree.
|
||
|
||
API changes:
|
||
- hb_shape() and related APIs now abort if buffer direction is
|
||
HB_DIRECTION_INVALID. Previously, hb_shape() was calling
|
||
hb_buffer_guess_segment_properties() on the buffer before
|
||
shaping. The heuristics in that function are fragile. If the
|
||
user really wants the old behvaior, they can call that function
|
||
right before calling hb_shape() to get the old behavior.
|
||
- hb_blob_create_sub_blob() always creates sub-blob with
|
||
HB_MEMORY_MODE_READONLY. See comments for the reason.
