6 | Check INSTALL for compilation and installation instructions. |
7 | Report bugs to https://bugs.freedesktop.org in the fontconfig module. | |

9 | 2.3.93 |
10 | ||
11 | Create cache files in /var/cache/fontconfig with hashed filenames, if | |
12 | possible, for added FHS compliance. | |
13 | Make fc-cat read both per-directory and global cache files. | |
14 | Add config file for Persian fonts from Sharif FarsiWeb, Inc. | |
15 | Major performance improvements by Dirk Mueller, Stephen Kulow, and Michael Matz at SuSE: in particular, speed up FcFontSetMatch, and inline many functions. | |
16 | Fix treatment of globs in config files, broken since 2.3.2 and discovered by Mathias Clasen. | |
17 | Don't use freetype internal headers (patch by Matthias Clasen). | |
18 | Further space improvements: create langsets statically, so that they can live in .rodata. | |
19 | Properly align mmapped data structures to make e.g. ia64 happy. | |
20 | Bug fixes. | |
21 | ||
e6d3e251 PL |
22 | 2.3.92 |
23 | ||
24 | Fix corrupted caches bugs from 2.3.91 (reported by Mike Fabian). | |
25 | Store only basename in the cache, reconstitute on demand | |
26 | (reported by James Cloos). | |
27 | Change the rule for artificial emboldening in fonts.conf.in. This | |
28 | enables the support for artificial emboldening included in cairo | |
29 | (patch by Zhe Su). | |
30 | Add FC_EMBEDDED_BITMAP object type to tell Xft/Cairo whether | |
31 | to load embedded bitmaps or not (patch by Jinghua Luo). | |
32 | Fix GCC4 warnings (some by Behdad Esfahbod). | |
33 | Support localized font family and style names; this has been reported | |
34 | to break old apps like xfd, but modern (gtk+/qt/mozilla) apps work | |
35 | fine (patch by Zhe Su). | |
36 | Prevent fc-list from escaping strings when printing them (reported by | |
37 | Matthias Clasen). | |
38 | Add valist sentinel markup for FcObjectSetBuild and | |
39 | FcPatternBuild (patch by Marcus Meissner). | |
40 | Add consts to variables so as to move arrays into .rodata (patch by | |
41 | Ross Burton). | |
42 | Modify config file to use Greek fonts before Asian fonts with | |
43 | Greek glyphs. (patch by Simos Xenitellis). | |
44 | Use libtool -no-undefined flag on all platforms (patch by Christian | |
45 | Biesinger). | |

47 | 2.3.91 |
48 | ||
49 | Use libxml2 if requested or if expat not available. (Mathias Hasselmann) | |
50 | Fix multi-arch cache files: compute the position for the | |
51 | block to be added using info from OrigFile, not NewFile. (plam) | |
52 | Cast results of sizeof() to unsigned int to get rid of | |
53 | warnings on x86_64 (reported by Matthias Clasen). | |
54 | Use FcAtomic to rewrite cache files; don't unlink the fonts.cache-2 | |
55 | file even if there's no data to write; just write an empty cache file. | |
56 | (Reported by Lubos Lunak) | |
57 | Allocate room for the subdirectory names in each directory cache. | |
58 | (Reported by James Cloos) | |

84 | ||
85 | Create prototype /etc/fonts/conf.d directory and populate it with a few | |

121 | 2.2.97 | |

123 | Fc-cache sleeps before exiting to ensure filesystem timestamps are well | |
124 | ordered. | |
125 | ||
126 | Added Punjai orthography. | |
127 | ||
128 | The timestamp in fonts.conf is gone now. Too many problems. | |
129 | ||
130 | The default font path includes all of the X fonts; use selectfont/rejectfont | |
131 | to eliminate bitmaps, as shown in the sample local.conf file. | |
132 | ||
133 | <include> configuration elements may now reference a directory. Files | |
134 | in that directory matching [0-9]* are loaded in UTF-8 collating sequence order. | |
135 | ||
136 | <selectfont> configuration added to control which fonts are used. | |
137 | ||

153 | Remove comma at end of FcResult enum definition for picky compilers. | |
d81271eb KP |
154 | |
155 | 2.2.95 | |
156 | ||
157 | Add FcResultOutOfMemory so FcFontSetMatch can return accurate error. | |
158 | ||
159 | Replace MIN/MAX/ABS macros which happened to be in old FreeType releases | |
160 | with FC_MIN/FC_MAX/FC_ABS macros owned by fontconfig. | |
626a7016 KP |
161 | |
162 | 2.2.94 | |
163 | ||
164 | The 2.2.93 release was prepared with a broken libtool which created | |
165 | the shared library without the '.so' in the file names. | |
6ae6acf3 KP |
166 | |
167 | 2.2.93 | |
168 | ||
169 | This is the third prerelease of fontconfig 2.3. Significant changes from | |
170 | 2.2.92 are: | |
171 | ||
172 | o Use new FreeType #include syntax | |
173 | o use y_ppem field instead of 'height' in bitmap sizes rec - | |
174 | FreeType changed the semantics. Still uses height for | |
175 | older versions of FreeType | |
176 | o Don't construct program manuals unless docbook is available | |
177 | ||
178 | 2.2.92 | |
179 | ||
180 | o make distcheck work | |
181 | ||
182 | 2.2.91 | |
183 | ||
184 | o Switch to SGML manuals | |
185 | o Add FC_DUAL width spacing value | |
186 | o Add FcFini to close out fontconfig and release all memory | |

2eafe090 | 189 | |
8fc10a72 | 190 | This is the third public release of fontconfig, a font configuration and |
2eafe090 KP |
191 | customization library. Fontconfig is designed to locate fonts within the |
192 | system and select them according to requirements specified by applications. | |
193 | ||
194 | Fontconfig is not a rasterization library, nor does it impose a particular | |
195 | rasterization library on the application. The X-specific library | |
196 | 'Xft' uses fontconfig along with freetype to specify and rasterize fonts. | |
