From b83da5822c3d011ffbdbf2bc44b3aa9236ce7482 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Cosimo Lupo Date: Wed, 6 Jul 2022 11:52:26 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Update NEWS.rst --- NEWS.rst | 37 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 37 insertions(+) diff --git a/NEWS.rst b/NEWS.rst index d500dd957..95b8670d2 100644 --- a/NEWS.rst +++ b/NEWS.rst @@ -1,3 +1,40 @@ +- [instancer] Set RIBBI bits in head and OS/2 table when cutting instances and the + subfamily nameID=2 contains strings like 'Italic' or 'Bold' (#2673). +- [otTraverse] Addded module containing methods for traversing trees of otData tables + (#2660). +- [otTables] Made DeltaSetIndexMap TTX dump less verbose by omitting no-op entries + (#2660). +- [colorLib.builder] Added option to disable PaintColrLayers's reuse of layers from + LayerList (#2660). +- [varLib] Added support for merging multiple master COLRv1 tables into a variable + COLR table (#2660, #2328). Base color glyphs of same name in different masters must have + identical paint graph structure (incl. number of layers, palette indices, number + of color line stops, corresponding paint formats at each level of the graph), + but can differ in the variable fields (e.g. PaintSolid.Alpha). PaintVar* tables + are produced when this happens and a VarStore/DeltaSetIndexMap is added to the + variable COLR table. It is possible for non-default masters to be 'sparse', i.e. + omit some of the color glyphs present in the default master. +- [feaLib] Let the Parser set nameIDs 1 through 6 that were previously reserved (#2675). +- [varLib.varStore] Support NO_VARIATION_INDEX in optimizer and instancer. +- [feaLib] Show all missing glyphs at once at end of parsing (#2665). +- [varLib.iup] Rewrite force-set conditions and limit DP loopback length (#2651). + For Noto Sans, IUP time drops from 23s down to 9s, with only a slight size increase + in the final font. This basically turns the algorithm from O(n^3) into O(n). +- [featureVars] Report about missing glyphs in substitution rules (#2654). +- [mutator/instancer] Added CLI flag to --no-recalc-timestamp (#2649). +- [SVG] Allow individual SVG documents in SVG OT table to be compressed on uncompressed, + and remember that when roundtripping to/from ttx. The SVG.docList is now a list + of SVGDocument namedtuple-like dataclass containing an extra ``compressed`` field, + and no longer a bare 3-tuple (#2645). +- [designspaceLib] Check for descriptor types with hasattr() to allow custom classes + that don't inherit the default descriptors (#2634). +- [subset] Enable sharing across subtables of extension lookups for harfbuzz packing + (#2626). Updated how table packing falls back to fontTools from harfbuzz (#2668). +- [subset] Updated default feature tags following current Harfbuzz (#2637). +- [svgLib] Fixed regex for real number to support e.g. 1e-4 in addition to 1.0e-4. + Support parsing negative rx, ry on arc commands (#2596, #2611). +- [subset] Fixed subsetting SinglePosFormat2 when ValueFormat=0 (#2603). + 4.33.3 (released 2022-04-26) ----------------------------
