185 | 2.3.95 | |
186 | ||
187 | Match 'Standard Symbols L' for 'Symbol'. Add URW fonts as aliases for | |
188 | all of the PostScript fonts. (reported by Miguel Rodriguez). Fix a | |
189 | number of Coverity defects (Frederic Crozat). Speed up FcFontSort | |
190 | (fix suggested by Kenichi Handa). Fix error with charsets. Survive | |
191 | missing docbook2pdf. Compile on HP-UX, AIX, SGI and Windows (Cygwin, | |
192 | MinGW). Fix intel compiler warnings. Fix multiarch support (don't | |
193 | destroy multiarch files!) Require pkg-config. (Thanks Behdad; better | |
194 | solution wanted for libxml2 detection!) Fix typos in orth files and | |
195 | add orth for Lingala (reported by Denis Jacquerye). Remove debian/ | |
196 | directory. Add a configuration file that disables hinting for the | |
197 | Lohit Gujarati font (since the hinting distorts some glyphs quite | |
198 | badly). Sort directory entries while scanning them from disk; | |
199 | prevents Heisenbugs due to file ordering in a directory (due to Egmont | |
200 | Koblinger). Fix Wine's problem with finding fonts. (Reported by | |
201 | Bernhard Rosenkraenzer.) Fix the issues with GNU libiconv vs. libc | |
202 | iconv (which especially appear on Solarii); patch by Behdad Esfahbod, | |
203 | approach suggested by Tim Mooney. | |
204 | ||
205 | 2.3.94 | |
206 | ||
207 | fc-cat can take directories as input and creates old-style fonts.cache | |
208 | listings. | |
209 | fc-cache takes -r --really-force which blows away all old caches and | |
210 | regenerates. | |
211 | Robustness fixes, integer overflow fixes (notably to cache handling | |
212 | code), toast broken global cache files. | |
213 | Change binary format to make it compatible with static langset | |
214 | information (thanks to Takashi Iwai). | |
215 | Open hashed caches before fonts.cache-2 (Takashi Iwai). | |
216 | Fix FcFontSetMatch's algorithm, which used to unjustly kill fonts for | |
217 | not declaring certain elements (Takashi Iwai). | |
218 | Fix matching bug when multiple elements match; don't use | |
219 | the sum of all scores, but the best score (James Su). | |
220 | Make fc-lang more friendly to Windows systems. | |
221 | Remove archaic chars from Georgian charset; add Euro character to | |
222 | charsets for European languages. | |
223 | Fix treatment of broken PCF fonts that don't declare family names. | |
224 | Pass O_BINARY to open if appropriate (reported by Doodle). | |
225 | Normalize font directories to the form in which they appear in | |
226 | config files. | |
227 | Add a record of the cached directory to the cache file. | |
228 | Perf optimizations (Dirk Mueller; some reported by Michael Meeks.) | |
229 | Don't loop infinitely on recursive symlinks. | |
230 | Make 'make distcheck' work with automake 1.6.3. | |
231 | Replace 'stamp' target with mkinstalldirs. | |
232 | Don't stop scanning if a directory in fonts.conf doesn't exist, | |
233 | because subsequent directories might exist. | |
234 | Put directory names into global cache (reported by Ronny V. Vindenes). | |
235 | Treat zh-hk fonts differently from zh-tw fonts. This patch may cause | |
236 | fontconfig to treat A-X fonts differently from A-Y fonts; please mail | |
237 | the fontconfig list if this causes any problems. | |
238 | Fix for unaligned memory accesses (Andreas Schwab). | |
239 | Fix treatment of cache directory as read from cache file; don't use | |
240 | string equality to determine if we have the right file, use inode | |
241 | equality. | |
242 | Properly skip past dir caches that contain zero fonts, as occurs | |
243 | in global caches (reported by Mike Fabian). | |
244 | Print out full pathname in fc-match -v (reported by Frederic Crozat). | |
245 | Fix bug where fc-match crashes when given __DUMMY__ property to | |
246 | match on. | |
247 | ||
248 | 2.3.93 | |
249 | ||
250 | Create cache files in /var/cache/fontconfig with hashed filenames, if | |
251 | possible, for added FHS compliance. | |
252 | Make fc-cat read both per-directory and global cache files. | |
253 | Add config file for Persian fonts from Sharif FarsiWeb, Inc. | |
254 | Major performance improvements by Dirk Mueller, Stephen Kulow, and Michael Matz at SuSE: in particular, speed up FcFontSetMatch, and inline many functions. | |
255 | Fix treatment of globs in config files, broken since 2.3.2 and discovered by Mathias Clasen. | |
256 | Don't use freetype internal headers (patch by Matthias Clasen). | |
257 | Further space improvements: create langsets statically, so that they can live in .rodata. | |
258 | Properly align mmapped data structures to make e.g. ia64 happy. | |
259 | Bug fixes. | |
260 | ||
261 | 2.3.92 | |
262 | ||
263 | Fix corrupted caches bugs from 2.3.91 (reported by Mike Fabian). | |
264 | Store only basename in the cache, reconstitute on demand | |
265 | (reported by James Cloos). | |
266 | Change the rule for artificial emboldening in fonts.conf.in. This | |
267 | enables the support for artificial emboldening included in cairo | |
268 | (patch by Zhe Su). | |
269 | Add FC_EMBEDDED_BITMAP object type to tell Xft/Cairo whether | |
270 | to load embedded bitmaps or not (patch by Jinghua Luo). | |
271 | Fix GCC4 warnings (some by Behdad Esfahbod). | |
272 | Support localized font family and style names; this has been reported | |
273 | to break old apps like xfd, but modern (gtk+/qt/mozilla) apps work | |
274 | fine (patch by Zhe Su). | |
275 | Prevent fc-list from escaping strings when printing them (reported by | |
276 | Matthias Clasen). | |
277 | Add valist sentinel markup for FcObjectSetBuild and | |
278 | FcPatternBuild (patch by Marcus Meissner). | |
279 | Add consts to variables so as to move arrays into .rodata (patch by | |
280 | Ross Burton). | |
281 | Modify config file to use Greek fonts before Asian fonts with | |
282 | Greek glyphs. (patch by Simos Xenitellis). | |
283 | Use libtool -no-undefined flag on all platforms (patch by Christian | |
284 | Biesinger). | |
285 | ||
286 | 2.3.91 | |
287 | ||
288 | Use libxml2 if requested or if expat not available. (Mathias Hasselmann) | |
289 | Fix multi-arch cache files: compute the position for the | |
290 | block to be added using info from OrigFile, not NewFile. (plam) | |
291 | Cast results of sizeof() to unsigned int to get rid of | |
292 | warnings on x86_64 (reported by Matthias Clasen). | |
293 | Use FcAtomic to rewrite cache files; don't unlink the fonts.cache-2 | |
294 | file even if there's no data to write; just write an empty cache file. | |
295 | (Reported by Lubos Lunak) | |
296 | Allocate room for the subdirectory names in each directory cache. | |
297 | (Reported by James Cloos) | |

362 | Fc-cache sleeps before exiting to ensure filesystem timestamps are well | |
363 | ordered. | |
364 | ||
365 | Added Punjai orthography. | |
366 | ||
367 | The timestamp in fonts.conf is gone now. Too many problems. | |
368 | ||
369 | The default font path includes all of the X fonts; use selectfont/rejectfont | |
370 | to eliminate bitmaps, as shown in the sample local.conf file. | |
371 | ||
372 | <include> configuration elements may now reference a directory. Files | |
373 | in that directory matching [0-9]* are loaded in UTF-8 collating sequence order. | |
374 | ||
375 | <selectfont> configuration added to control which fonts are used. | |
376 | ||

393 | ||
394 | 2.2.95 | |
395 | ||
396 | Add FcResultOutOfMemory so FcFontSetMatch can return accurate error. | |
397 | ||
398 | Replace MIN/MAX/ABS macros which happened to be in old FreeType releases | |
399 | with FC_MIN/FC_MAX/FC_ABS macros owned by fontconfig. | |
400 | ||
401 | 2.2.94 | |
402 | ||
403 | The 2.2.93 release was prepared with a broken libtool which created | |
404 | the shared library without the '.so' in the file names. | |
405 | ||
406 | 2.2.93 | |
407 | ||
408 | This is the third prerelease of fontconfig 2.3. Significant changes from | |
409 | 2.2.92 are: | |
410 | ||
411 | o Use new FreeType #include syntax | |
412 | o use y_ppem field instead of 'height' in bitmap sizes rec - | |
413 | FreeType changed the semantics. Still uses height for | |
414 | older versions of FreeType | |
415 | o Don't construct program manuals unless docbook is available | |
416 | ||
417 | 2.2.92 | |
418 | ||
419 | o make distcheck work | |
420 | ||
421 | 2.2.91 | |
422 | ||
423 | o Switch to SGML manuals | |
424 | o Add FC_DUAL width spacing value | |
425 | o Add FcFini to close out fontconfig and release all memory | |
426 | ||
427 | 2.2 | |
428 | ||
429 | This is the third public release of fontconfig, a font configuration and | |
430 | customization library. Fontconfig is designed to locate fonts within the | |
431 | system and select them according to requirements specified by applications. | |
432 | ||
433 | Fontconfig is not a rasterization library, nor does it impose a particular | |
434 | rasterization library on the application. The X-specific library | |
435 | 'Xft' uses fontconfig along with freetype to specify and rasterize fonts. | |
