6 Check INSTALL for compilation and installation instructions.
7 Report bugs to https://bugs.freedesktop.org in the fontconfig module.
11 Patch memory leaks in using iconv. (Reported by Chris Capoccia)
12 Patch memory leaks in fc-cache. (Reported by Chris Capoccia)
13 Fetch bitmap glyphs to get widths during font evaluation. (keithp)
14 Share strings through FcObjectStaticName (Ross Burton)
15 Windows build updates (Tor Lillqvist)
19 Be more careful about broken GSUB/GPOS tables (Manish Singh)
20 Include debian packaging stuff in CVS (Josselin Mouette)
21 Add more conf.d examples (Keith Packard)
22 Make manuals build again (Keith Packard)
23 Johap -> Johab (Funda Wang)
27 Fix memory leak of patterns rejected by configuration (#2518)
29 Create prototype /etc/fonts/conf.d directory and populate it with a few
30 sample files. These samples are unused as the file names don't start with
37 Verify cache for FC_FILE and FC_FAMILY in every entry (#2219)
39 Update blanks list from recent Unicode docs (#86)
41 Various small build fixes (#280, #2278,
43 Documentation fixes (#2085, #2284, #2285)
45 Add polite typechecking to config file loader (#229)
49 Share object name strings (Michael Meeks)
51 Eliminate a couple of codepoints from Russian orthography (John Thacker)
53 Add synthetic emboldening configuration changes (Jakub Pavelek)
55 Change FcFontSetSort to ignore language after fonts with the requested
56 languages have been found. (Owen Taylor)
58 Add some RedHat font configuration changes (Owen Tayler).
60 Add full Unicode case folding support to case-ignoring string functions
63 Remove Han characters from Korean orthography (Tor Andersson)
67 Fc-cache sleeps before exiting to ensure filesystem timestamps are well
70 Added Punjai orthography.
72 The timestamp in fonts.conf is gone now. Too many problems.
74 The default font path includes all of the X fonts; use selectfont/rejectfont
75 to eliminate bitmaps, as shown in the sample local.conf file.
77 <include> configuration elements may now reference a directory. Files
78 in that directory matching [0-9]* are loaded in UTF-8 collating sequence order.
80 <selectfont> configuration added to control which fonts are used.
82 fontformat font pattern elements built from the FT_Get_X11_Font_Format
83 function in newer versions of FreeType.
85 'capability' list constructed from gsub/gpos and silf values in TrueType
88 Multi-lingual names (style, family, fullname) extracted and stored with
89 parallel <foo>lang properties marking language.
93 Fix FcConfigUpToDate to actually check all font directories and eliminate
94 a typo which completely prevented it from working (Lubos Lunak
97 Remove comma at end of FcResult enum definition for picky compilers.
101 Add FcResultOutOfMemory so FcFontSetMatch can return accurate error.
103 Replace MIN/MAX/ABS macros which happened to be in old FreeType releases
104 with FC_MIN/FC_MAX/FC_ABS macros owned by fontconfig.
108 The 2.2.93 release was prepared with a broken libtool which created
109 the shared library without the '.so' in the file names.
113 This is the third prerelease of fontconfig 2.3. Significant changes from
116 o Use new FreeType #include syntax
117 o use y_ppem field instead of 'height' in bitmap sizes rec -
118 FreeType changed the semantics. Still uses height for
119 older versions of FreeType
120 o Don't construct program manuals unless docbook is available
124 o make distcheck work
128 o Switch to SGML manuals
129 o Add FC_DUAL width spacing value
130 o Add FcFini to close out fontconfig and release all memory
134 This is the third public release of fontconfig, a font configuration and
135 customization library. Fontconfig is designed to locate fonts within the
136 system and select them according to requirements specified by applications.
138 Fontconfig is not a rasterization library, nor does it impose a particular
139 rasterization library on the application. The X-specific library
140 'Xft' uses fontconfig along with freetype to specify and rasterize fonts.
