Fix for #1985:
* ensure that the AxisNameID in the STAT table is not less than 256. This needed an additional argument to the addMultiLingualName() name table method.
* fvar axis name IDs must also not be less than 256, just like STAT axis names.
Note UI change : `fonttools varLib.models` now takes prefixed options `-d` or `-l` instead of guessing the intended feature from the number of arguments.
We have a number of command line tools which are somewhat opaque. (varLib.models in particular was very confusing.) This ensures that they all use argparse to have a consistent interface, and all have --help documentation which at least details their parameters, and hopefully therefore gives more of a clue about what they do. Those which use logging have had a command-line logging parameter added.
This adds a `help` verb (and `--help` option) to the `fonttools` command line tool. Submodules will be listed in the help text if they have an importable `main` function with a docstring, and `main`'s docstring will be used as the one-line description for the help text.
Nothing clever, if the source font has a CFF2 table use it as if it were
a CFF table (i.e. non-variable, not sure what would happen in the source
CFF2 was variable already).
* varLib.cff: Apply conv_to_int() to all the values
* varLib: Don't hardcode file extension to 'ttf'
Also remove unused imports
* varLib.cff: Fix merging of sparse PrivateDict items
Fixes#1651
When building a variable font, varLib.build must make sure that
the OS/2.usWeightClass is equal to the wght axis default location,
that the OS/2.usWidthClass is set to the equivalent value (1-9) of
the wdth axis default location, and finally that post.italicAngle
is set to the same default value as slnt axis.
Sometimes the base master doesn't have these values correctly
set leading to discrepancies between OS/2 and post, on the one
hand, and the fvar axes' default values.
* Added getter (in the form of a property decorator) for T2Charstring.vsindex. Fixes endless compile loop in some circumstances.
Fixed bug in mutator: need to remove vsindex from snapshotted charstrings, plus formatting clean up
* Fix for subsetting HVAR tables that have an AdvanceWidthMap when the --retain-gid option is used. Needed to make subset_test.py::test_retain_gids_cff2 tests pass.
* in varLib/cffLib.py, add support for sparse sources, and sources with more than one model, and hence more than one VarData element in the VarStore.
CFF2 source fonts with multiple FontDicts in the FDArray need some extra work. With sparse fonts, some of the source fonts may have a fewer FontDicts than the default font. The getfd_map function() builds a map from the FontDict indices in the default font to those in each region font. This is needed when building up the blend value lists in the master font FontDict PrivateDicts, in order to fetch PrivateDict values from the correct FontDict in each region font.
In specializer.py, add support for CFF2 CharStrings with blend operators. 1) In generalizeCommands, convert a blend op to a list of args that are blend lists for the following regular operator. A blend list as a default font value, followed by the delta tuple. 2) In specializeCommands(), convert these back to blend ops, combining as many successive blend lists as allowed by the stack limit.
Add test case for sparse CFF2 sources.
The test font has 55 glyphs. 2 glyphs use only 2 sources (weight = 0 and 100). The rest use 4 source fonts: the two end points of the weight axis, and two intermediate masters. The intermediate masters are only 1 design space unit apart, and are used to change glyph design at the point in design space. For the rest, at most 2 glyphs use the same set of source fonts. There are 12 source fonts.
Add test case for specializer programToCommands() and commandsToProgram by converting each CharString.program in the font to a command list, and back again, and comparing original and final versions.
code elsewhere assumes that all optional fields in OT tables are initialized
to None (that is the case when decompiling from a file).
This patch makes sure that the new GDEF table build by varLib when creating
a new VF is properly initialised.
Ideally we wouldn't have to do that manually, but the constructor would
take care of that. But otData-generated classes are special...
re-named variables from snake-case to camel-case throughout functions, except for 'master_ttfs' (which is ugly when camel-cased, and is the lone snake-cased in other functions) and the function names (which follows the precedent set in almost all of the rest of the module).
removed unused dicts
Remove print statement
Rename v_orig_mapping_i to v_orig_mapping. The suffix was left over from an earlier pass, when there was a mapping for the direct store and another one for the indirect store.
when 'vmtx' is present in a font, use that to compute the third and fourth 'phantom points'.
When not present, we use the glyph bbox yMax and yMin coords.
NOTE that previously the bottomSideY was incorrectly set to -glyph.yMin (with a minus sign).
However, the minus is not needed when we use the bbox.
Positive vertical advance grows towards negative Y axis.
* Revert "load_masters: actually assign font attributes"
This reverts commit ef1d4cd02d1e46f5dac3914f547a6e4275cf3077, which caused a
crash in `interpolate_layout()` when `deepcopy`ing OTFs.
Amend code and tests while I work on a real fix.
in a designspace document, the sources' filename attribute can now contain
a relative path to a .TTX file for that master, in addition to .TTF or .UFO
(the latter, resolved through a master_finder callable as before).
