146 | Match 'Standard Symbols L' for 'Symbol'. Add URW fonts as aliases for | |
147 | all of the PostScript fonts. (reported by Miguel Rodriguez). Fix a | |
148 | number of Coverity defects (Frederic Crozat). Speed up FcFontSort | |
149 | (fix suggested by Kenichi Handa). Fix error with charsets. Survive | |
150 | missing docbook2pdf. Compile on HP-UX, AIX, SGI and Windows (Cygwin, | |
151 | MinGW). Fix intel compiler warnings. Fix multiarch support (don't | |
152 | destroy multiarch files!) Require pkg-config. (Thanks Behdad; better | |
153 | solution wanted for libxml2 detection!) Fix typos in orth files and | |
154 | add orth for Lingala (reported by Denis Jacquerye). Remove debian/ | |
155 | directory. Add a configuration file that disables hinting for the | |
156 | Lohit Gujarati font (since the hinting distorts some glyphs quite | |
157 | badly). Sort directory entries while scanning them from disk; | |
158 | prevents Heisenbugs due to file ordering in a directory (due to Egmont | |
159 | Koblinger). Fix Wine's problem with finding fonts. (Reported by | |
3b013a03 PL |
160 | Bernhard Rosenkraenzer.) Fix the issues with GNU libiconv vs. libc |
161 | iconv (which especially appear on Solarii); patch by Behdad Esfahbod, | |
162 | approach suggested by Tim Mooney. | |

166 | fc-cat can take directories as input and creates old-style fonts.cache | |
167 | listings. | |
168 | fc-cache takes -r --really-force which blows away all old caches and | |
169 | regenerates. | |
170 | Robustness fixes, integer overflow fixes (notably to cache handling | |
171 | code), toast broken global cache files. | |
172 | Change binary format to make it compatible with static langset | |
173 | information (thanks to Takashi Iwai). | |
174 | Open hashed caches before fonts.cache-2 (Takashi Iwai). | |
175 | Fix FcFontSetMatch's algorithm, which used to unjustly kill fonts for | |
176 | not declaring certain elements (Takashi Iwai). | |
177 | Fix matching bug when multiple elements match; don't use | |
178 | the sum of all scores, but the best score (James Su). | |
179 | Make fc-lang more friendly to Windows systems. | |
180 | Remove archaic chars from Georgian charset; add Euro character to | |
181 | charsets for European languages. | |
182 | Fix treatment of broken PCF fonts that don't declare family names. | |
183 | Pass O_BINARY to open if appropriate (reported by Doodle). | |
184 | Normalize font directories to the form in which they appear in | |
185 | config files. | |
186 | Add a record of the cached directory to the cache file. | |
187 | Perf optimizations (Dirk Mueller; some reported by Michael Meeks.) | |
188 | Don't loop infinitely on recursive symlinks. | |
189 | Make 'make distcheck' work with automake 1.6.3. | |
190 | Replace 'stamp' target with mkinstalldirs. | |
191 | Don't stop scanning if a directory in fonts.conf doesn't exist, | |
192 | because subsequent directories might exist. | |
193 | Put directory names into global cache (reported by Ronny V. Vindenes). | |
194 | Treat zh-hk fonts differently from zh-tw fonts. This patch may cause | |
195 | fontconfig to treat A-X fonts differently from A-Y fonts; please mail | |
196 | the fontconfig list if this causes any problems. | |
197 | Fix for unaligned memory accesses (Andreas Schwab). | |
198 | Fix treatment of cache directory as read from cache file; don't use | |
199 | string equality to determine if we have the right file, use inode | |
200 | equality. | |
201 | Properly skip past dir caches that contain zero fonts, as occurs | |
202 | in global caches (reported by Mike Fabian). | |
203 | Print out full pathname in fc-match -v (reported by Frederic Crozat). | |
204 | Fix bug where fc-match crashes when given __DUMMY__ property to | |
205 | match on. | |

209 | Create cache files in /var/cache/fontconfig with hashed filenames, if | |
210 | possible, for added FHS compliance. | |
211 | Make fc-cat read both per-directory and global cache files. | |
212 | Add config file for Persian fonts from Sharif FarsiWeb, Inc. | |
213 | Major performance improvements by Dirk Mueller, Stephen Kulow, and Michael Matz at SuSE: in particular, speed up FcFontSetMatch, and inline many functions. | |
214 | Fix treatment of globs in config files, broken since 2.3.2 and discovered by Mathias Clasen. | |
215 | Don't use freetype internal headers (patch by Matthias Clasen). | |
216 | Further space improvements: create langsets statically, so that they can live in .rodata. | |
217 | Properly align mmapped data structures to make e.g. ia64 happy. | |
218 | Bug fixes. | |

222 | Fix corrupted caches bugs from 2.3.91 (reported by Mike Fabian). | |
223 | Store only basename in the cache, reconstitute on demand | |
224 | (reported by James Cloos). | |
225 | Change the rule for artificial emboldening in fonts.conf.in. This | |
226 | enables the support for artificial emboldening included in cairo | |
227 | (patch by Zhe Su). | |
228 | Add FC_EMBEDDED_BITMAP object type to tell Xft/Cairo whether | |
229 | to load embedded bitmaps or not (patch by Jinghua Luo). | |
230 | Fix GCC4 warnings (some by Behdad Esfahbod). | |
231 | Support localized font family and style names; this has been reported | |
232 | to break old apps like xfd, but modern (gtk+/qt/mozilla) apps work | |
233 | fine (patch by Zhe Su). | |
234 | Prevent fc-list from escaping strings when printing them (reported by | |
235 | Matthias Clasen). | |
236 | Add valist sentinel markup for FcObjectSetBuild and | |
237 | FcPatternBuild (patch by Marcus Meissner). | |
238 | Add consts to variables so as to move arrays into .rodata (patch by | |
239 | Ross Burton). | |
240 | Modify config file to use Greek fonts before Asian fonts with | |
241 | Greek glyphs. (patch by Simos Xenitellis). | |

249 | block to be added using info from OrigFile, not NewFile. (plam) | |
250 | Cast results of sizeof() to unsigned int to get rid of | |
251 | warnings on x86_64 (reported by Matthias Clasen). | |
252 | Use FcAtomic to rewrite cache files; don't unlink the fonts.cache-2 | |
253 | file even if there's no data to write; just write an empty cache file. | |
254 | (Reported by Lubos Lunak) | |

325 | ||
326 | The timestamp in fonts.conf is gone now. Too many problems. | |

369 | ||
370 | o Use new FreeType #include syntax | |
371 | o use y_ppem field instead of 'height' in bitmap sizes rec - | |
372 | FreeType changed the semantics. Still uses height for | |
373 | older versions of FreeType | |
374 | o Don't construct program manuals unless docbook is available | |

2eafe090 | 387 | |
8fc10a72 | 388 | This is the third public release of fontconfig, a font configuration and |
2eafe090 KP |
389 | customization library. Fontconfig is designed to locate fonts within the |
390 | system and select them according to requirements specified by applications. | |
391 | ||
392 | Fontconfig is not a rasterization library, nor does it impose a particular | |
393 | rasterization library on the application. The X-specific library | |
394 | 'Xft' uses fontconfig along with freetype to specify and rasterize fonts. | |
