153 | 2.3.95 | |
154 | ||
155 | Match 'Standard Symbols L' for 'Symbol'. Add URW fonts as aliases for | |
156 | all of the PostScript fonts. (reported by Miguel Rodriguez). Fix a | |
157 | number of Coverity defects (Frederic Crozat). Speed up FcFontSort | |
158 | (fix suggested by Kenichi Handa). Fix error with charsets. Survive | |
159 | missing docbook2pdf. Compile on HP-UX, AIX, SGI and Windows (Cygwin, | |
160 | MinGW). Fix intel compiler warnings. Fix multiarch support (don't | |
161 | destroy multiarch files!) Require pkg-config. (Thanks Behdad; better | |
162 | solution wanted for libxml2 detection!) Fix typos in orth files and | |
163 | add orth for Lingala (reported by Denis Jacquerye). Remove debian/ | |
164 | directory. Add a configuration file that disables hinting for the | |
165 | Lohit Gujarati font (since the hinting distorts some glyphs quite | |
166 | badly). Sort directory entries while scanning them from disk; | |
167 | prevents Heisenbugs due to file ordering in a directory (due to Egmont | |
168 | Koblinger). Fix Wine's problem with finding fonts. (Reported by | |
169 | Bernhard Rosenkraenzer.) Fix the issues with GNU libiconv vs. libc | |
170 | iconv (which especially appear on Solarii); patch by Behdad Esfahbod, | |
171 | approach suggested by Tim Mooney. | |
172 | ||
173 | 2.3.94 | |
174 | ||
175 | fc-cat can take directories as input and creates old-style fonts.cache | |
176 | listings. | |
177 | fc-cache takes -r --really-force which blows away all old caches and | |
178 | regenerates. | |
179 | Robustness fixes, integer overflow fixes (notably to cache handling | |
180 | code), toast broken global cache files. | |
181 | Change binary format to make it compatible with static langset | |
182 | information (thanks to Takashi Iwai). | |
183 | Open hashed caches before fonts.cache-2 (Takashi Iwai). | |
184 | Fix FcFontSetMatch's algorithm, which used to unjustly kill fonts for | |
185 | not declaring certain elements (Takashi Iwai). | |
186 | Fix matching bug when multiple elements match; don't use | |
187 | the sum of all scores, but the best score (James Su). | |
188 | Make fc-lang more friendly to Windows systems. | |
189 | Remove archaic chars from Georgian charset; add Euro character to | |
190 | charsets for European languages. | |
191 | Fix treatment of broken PCF fonts that don't declare family names. | |
192 | Pass O_BINARY to open if appropriate (reported by Doodle). | |
193 | Normalize font directories to the form in which they appear in | |
194 | config files. | |
195 | Add a record of the cached directory to the cache file. | |
196 | Perf optimizations (Dirk Mueller; some reported by Michael Meeks.) | |
197 | Don't loop infinitely on recursive symlinks. | |
198 | Make 'make distcheck' work with automake 1.6.3. | |
199 | Replace 'stamp' target with mkinstalldirs. | |
200 | Don't stop scanning if a directory in fonts.conf doesn't exist, | |
201 | because subsequent directories might exist. | |
202 | Put directory names into global cache (reported by Ronny V. Vindenes). | |
203 | Treat zh-hk fonts differently from zh-tw fonts. This patch may cause | |
204 | fontconfig to treat A-X fonts differently from A-Y fonts; please mail | |
205 | the fontconfig list if this causes any problems. | |
206 | Fix for unaligned memory accesses (Andreas Schwab). | |
207 | Fix treatment of cache directory as read from cache file; don't use | |
208 | string equality to determine if we have the right file, use inode | |
209 | equality. | |
210 | Properly skip past dir caches that contain zero fonts, as occurs | |
211 | in global caches (reported by Mike Fabian). | |
212 | Print out full pathname in fc-match -v (reported by Frederic Crozat). | |
213 | Fix bug where fc-match crashes when given __DUMMY__ property to | |
214 | match on. | |
215 | ||
216 | 2.3.93 | |
217 | ||
218 | Create cache files in /var/cache/fontconfig with hashed filenames, if | |
219 | possible, for added FHS compliance. | |
220 | Make fc-cat read both per-directory and global cache files. | |
221 | Add config file for Persian fonts from Sharif FarsiWeb, Inc. | |
222 | Major performance improvements by Dirk Mueller, Stephen Kulow, and Michael Matz at SuSE: in particular, speed up FcFontSetMatch, and inline many functions. | |
223 | Fix treatment of globs in config files, broken since 2.3.2 and discovered by Mathias Clasen. | |
224 | Don't use freetype internal headers (patch by Matthias Clasen). | |
225 | Further space improvements: create langsets statically, so that they can live in .rodata. | |
226 | Properly align mmapped data structures to make e.g. ia64 happy. | |
227 | Bug fixes. | |
228 | ||
229 | 2.3.92 | |
230 | ||
231 | Fix corrupted caches bugs from 2.3.91 (reported by Mike Fabian). | |
232 | Store only basename in the cache, reconstitute on demand | |
233 | (reported by James Cloos). | |
234 | Change the rule for artificial emboldening in fonts.conf.in. This | |
235 | enables the support for artificial emboldening included in cairo | |
236 | (patch by Zhe Su). | |
237 | Add FC_EMBEDDED_BITMAP object type to tell Xft/Cairo whether | |
238 | to load embedded bitmaps or not (patch by Jinghua Luo). | |
239 | Fix GCC4 warnings (some by Behdad Esfahbod). | |
240 | Support localized font family and style names; this has been reported | |
241 | to break old apps like xfd, but modern (gtk+/qt/mozilla) apps work | |
242 | fine (patch by Zhe Su). | |
243 | Prevent fc-list from escaping strings when printing them (reported by | |
244 | Matthias Clasen). | |
245 | Add valist sentinel markup for FcObjectSetBuild and | |
246 | FcPatternBuild (patch by Marcus Meissner). | |
247 | Add consts to variables so as to move arrays into .rodata (patch by | |
248 | Ross Burton). | |
249 | Modify config file to use Greek fonts before Asian fonts with | |
250 | Greek glyphs. (patch by Simos Xenitellis). | |
251 | Use libtool -no-undefined flag on all platforms (patch by Christian | |
252 | Biesinger). | |

254 | 2.3.91 | |
255 | ||
256 | Use libxml2 if requested or if expat not available. (Mathias Hasselmann) | |
257 | Fix multi-arch cache files: compute the position for the | |
258 | block to be added using info from OrigFile, not NewFile. (plam) | |
259 | Cast results of sizeof() to unsigned int to get rid of | |
260 | warnings on x86_64 (reported by Matthias Clasen). | |
261 | Use FcAtomic to rewrite cache files; don't unlink the fonts.cache-2 | |
262 | file even if there's no data to write; just write an empty cache file. | |
263 | (Reported by Lubos Lunak) | |
264 | Allocate room for the subdirectory names in each directory cache. | |
265 | (Reported by James Cloos) | |
266 | ||
267 | 2.3.90 | |
268 | ||
269 | Development release of mmap patch: load pattern information | |

291 | ||
292 | Create prototype /etc/fonts/conf.d directory and populate it with a few | |

327 | ||
328 | 2.2.97 | |
329 | ||
330 | Fc-cache sleeps before exiting to ensure filesystem timestamps are well | |
331 | ordered. | |
332 | ||
333 | Added Punjai orthography. | |
334 | ||
335 | The timestamp in fonts.conf is gone now. Too many problems. | |
336 | ||
337 | The default font path includes all of the X fonts; use selectfont/rejectfont | |
338 | to eliminate bitmaps, as shown in the sample local.conf file. | |
339 | ||
340 | <include> configuration elements may now reference a directory. Files | |
341 | in that directory matching [0-9]* are loaded in UTF-8 collating sequence order. | |
342 | ||
343 | <selectfont> configuration added to control which fonts are used. | |
344 | ||
345 | fontformat font pattern elements built from the FT_Get_X11_Font_Format | |
346 | function in newer versions of FreeType. | |
347 | ||
348 | 'capability' list constructed from gsub/gpos and silf values in TrueType | |

359 | ||
360 | Remove comma at end of FcResult enum definition for picky compilers. | |
361 | ||
362 | 2.2.95 | |
363 | ||
364 | Add FcResultOutOfMemory so FcFontSetMatch can return accurate error. | |
365 | ||
366 | Replace MIN/MAX/ABS macros which happened to be in old FreeType releases | |
367 | with FC_MIN/FC_MAX/FC_ABS macros owned by fontconfig. | |
368 | ||
369 | 2.2.94 | |
370 | ||
371 | The 2.2.93 release was prepared with a broken libtool which created | |
372 | the shared library without the '.so' in the file names. | |
373 | ||
374 | 2.2.93 | |
375 | ||
376 | This is the third prerelease of fontconfig 2.3. Significant changes from | |
377 | 2.2.92 are: | |
378 | ||
379 | o Use new FreeType #include syntax | |
380 | o use y_ppem field instead of 'height' in bitmap sizes rec - | |
381 | FreeType changed the semantics. Still uses height for | |
382 | older versions of FreeType | |
383 | o Don't construct program manuals unless docbook is available | |
384 | ||
385 | 2.2.92 | |
386 | ||
387 | o make distcheck work | |
388 | ||
389 | 2.2.91 | |
390 | ||
391 | o Switch to SGML manuals | |
392 | o Add FC_DUAL width spacing value | |
393 | o Add FcFini to close out fontconfig and release all memory | |
394 | ||
395 | 2.2 | |
396 | ||
397 | This is the third public release of fontconfig, a font configuration and | |
398 | customization library. Fontconfig is designed to locate fonts within the | |
399 | system and select them according to requirements specified by applications. | |
400 | ||
401 | Fontconfig is not a rasterization library, nor does it impose a particular | |
402 | rasterization library on the application. The X-specific library | |
403 | 'Xft' uses fontconfig along with freetype to specify and rasterize fonts. | |
