Note: this backend is for testing ONLY. +- CoreText backend improvements with unreachable fonts. +- Implement symbol fonts (cmap 3.0.0) in hb-ft and hb-ot-font. +- Blacklist bad GDEF of more fonts (Tahoma & others). +- Misc fixes. + + +Overview of changes leading to 1.2.7 +Monday, May 2, 2016 +==================================== + +- Blacklist another version of Times New Roman (Bold) Italic from Windows 7. +- Fix Mongolian Free Variation Selectors shaping with certain fonts. +- Fix Tibetan shorthand contractions shaping. +- Improved list of language tag mappings. +- Unbreak build on Windows CE. +- Make 'glyf' table loading lazy in hb-ot-font. + + +Overview of changes leading to 1.2.6 +Friday, April 8, 2016 +==================================== + +- Blacklist GDEF table of another set of Times New Roman (Bold) Italic. +- DirectWrite backend improvements.

It's fine for production systems to define this to + disable high-overhead debugging checks. However, I also reduced the + overhead of those checks, so it's a non-issue right now. You can + forget it. Just not defining anything at all is fine. + + +Overview of changes leading to 1.2.3 +Thursday, February 25, 2016 +==================================== + +- Blacklist GDEF table of certain versions of Times New Roman (Bold) Italic, + due to bug in glyph class of ASCII double-quote character. This should + address "regression" introduced in 1.2.0 when we switched mark zeroing + in most shapers from BY_UNICODE_LATE to BY_GDEF_LATE. + This fourth release in a week should finally stablize things... + +- hb-ot-font's get_glyph() implementation saw some optimizations. Though, + might be really hard to measure in real-world situations. + +- Also, two rather small API changes: + +We now disable some time-consuming internal bookkeeping if built with NDEBUG +defined. This is a first time that we use NDEBUG to disable debug code. If +there exist production systems that do NOT want to enable NDEBUG, please let +me know and I'll add HB_NDEBUG. + +Added get_nominal_glyph() and get_variation_glyph() instead of get_glyph() + +New API: +- hb_font_get_nominal_glyph_func_t +- hb_font_get_variation_glyph_func_t +- hb_font_funcs_set_nominal_glyph_func() +- hb_font_funcs_set_variation_glyph_func() +- hb_font_get_nominal_glyph() +- hb_font_get_variation_glyph() + +Deprecated API: +- hb_font_get_glyph_func_t +- hb_font_funcs_set_glyph_func() + +Clients that implement their own font-funcs are encouraged to replace +their get_glyph() implementation with a get_nominal_glyph() and +get_variation_glyph() pair. The variation version can assume that +variation_selector argument is not zero. Old (deprecated) functions +will continue working indefinitely using internal gymnastics; it is +just more efficient to use the new functions. + + +Overview of changes leading to 1.2.2 +Wednesday, February 24, 2016 +==================================== + +- Fix regression with mark positioning with fonts that have + non-zero mark advances. This was introduced in 1.2.0 while + trying to make mark and cursive attachments to work together. + I have partially reverted that, so this version is much more + like what we had before. All clients who updated to 1.2.0 + should update to this version. + + +Overview of changes leading to 1.2.1 +Tuesday, February 23, 2016 +==================================== + +- CoreText: Fix bug with wrong scale if font scale was changed later. + https://github.com/libass/libass/issues/212 +- CoreText: Drastically speed up font initialization. +- CoreText: Fix tiny leak. +- Group ZWJ/ZWNJ with previous syllable under cluster-level=0. + https://github.com/behdad/harfbuzz/issues/217 +- Add test/shaping/README.md about how to add tests to the suite. + + +Overview of changes leading to 1.2.0 +Friday, February 19, 2016 +==================================== + +- Fix various issues (hangs mostly) in case of memory allocation failure. +- Change mark zeroing types of most shapers from BY_UNICODE_LATE to + BY_GDEF_LATE. This seems to be what Uniscribe does. +- Change mark zeroing of USE shaper from NONE to BY_GDEF_EARLY. That's + what Windows does. +- Allow GPOS cursive connection on marks, and fix the interaction with + mark attachment. This work resulted in some changes to how mark + attachments work.

Ie, the nil callback returns + true instead of false. As such, implementations that have a + glyph_h_origin() that simply returns true, can remove that function + with HarfBuzz >= 1.1.2. This results in a tiny speedup. + + +Overview of changes leading to 1.1.1 +Wednesday, November 24, 2015 +==================================== + +- Build fixes, specially for hb-coretext. + + +Overview of changes leading to 1.1.0 +Wednesday, November 18, 2015 +==================================== + +- Implement 'stch' stretch feature for Syriac Abbreviation Mark. + https://github.com/behdad/harfbuzz/issues/141 +- Disable use of decompose_compatibility() callback. +- Implement "shaping" of various Unicode space characters, even + if the font does not support them. + https://github.com/behdad/harfbuzz/issues/153 +- If font does not support U+2011 NO-BREAK HYPHEN, fallback to + U+2010 HYPHEN. +- Changes resulting from libFuzzer continuous fuzzing: + * Reject font tables that need more than 8 edits, + * Bound buffer growth during shaping to 32x, + * Fix assertions and other issues at OOM / buffer max-growth. +- Misc fixes and optimizations. +- API changes: + * All fonts created with hb_font_create() now inherit from + (ie. have parent) hb_font_get_empty(). + + Overview of changes leading to 1.0.6 Thursday, October 15, 2015 ==================================== |
