FontTools Version 1.0 alpha 6 (released March 15 2000)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Big reorganization: made ttLib a subpackage of the new fontTools package,
|
||
|
|
changed several module names. Called the entire suite "FontTools"
|
||
|
|
- Added several submodules to fontTools, some new, some older.
|
||
|
|
- Added experimental CFF/GPOS/GSUB support to ttLib, read-only (but XML dumping
|
||
|
|
of GPOS/GSUB is for now disabled)
|
||
|
|
- Fixed hdmx endian bug
|
||
|
|
- Added -b option to ttCompile.py, it disables recalculation of bounding boxes,
|
||
|
|
as requested by Werner Lemberg.
|
||
|
|
- Renamed tt2xml.pt to ttDump.py and xml2tt.py to ttCompile.py
|
||
|
|
- Use ".ttx" as file extension instead of ".xml".
|
||
|
|
- TTX is now the name of the XML-based *format* for TT fonts, and not just
|
||
|
|
an application.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Version 1.0 alpha 5 (never released)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- More tables supported: hdmx, vhea, vmtx
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Version 1.0 alpha 3 & 4 (never released)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- fixed most portability issues
|
||
|
|
- retracted the "Euro_or_currency" change from 1.0a2: it was nonsense!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Version 1.0 alpha 2 (released as binary for MacOS, 2 May 1999)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- genenates full FOND resources: including width table, PS
|
||
|
|
font name info and kern table if applicable.
|
||
|
|
- added cmap format 4 support. Extra: dumps Unicode char names as XML comments!
|
||
|
|
- added cmap format 6 support
|
||
|
|
- now accepts true type files starting with "true"
|
||
|
|
(instead of just 0x00010000 and "OTTO")
|
||
|
|
- 'glyf' table support is now complete: I added support for composite scale,
|
||
|
|
xy-scale and two-by-two for the 'glyf' table. For now, component offset scale
|
||
|
|
behaviour defaults to Apple-style. This only affects the (re)calculation of
|
||
|
|
the glyph bounding box.
|
||
|
|
- changed "Euro" to "Euro_or_currency" in the Standard Apple Glyph order list,
|
||
|
|
since we cannot tell from the 'post' table which is meant. I should probably
|
||
|
|
doublecheck with a Unicode encoding if available. (This does not affect the
|
||
|
|
output!)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Fixed bugs:
|
||
|
|
- 'hhea' table is now recalculated correctly
|
||
|
|
- fixed wrong assumption about sfnt resource names
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Version 1.0 alpha 1 (27 Apr 1999)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- initial binary release for MacOS
|
