- Upadte to version 2.6.4:
* A new subpixel hinting mode, which is now the default rendering
mode for TrueType fonts. It implements (almost everything of)
version 40 of the bytecode engine. The existing code base in
FreeType (the `Infinality code') was stripped to the bare
minimum and all configurability removed in the name of speed
and simplicity. The configurability was mainly aimed at legacy
fonts like Arial, Times New Roman, or Courier. [Legacy fonts
are fonts that modify vertical stems to achieve clean
black-and-white bitmaps.] The new mode focuses on applying a
minimal set of rules to all fonts indiscriminately so that
modern and web fonts render well while legacy fonts render
okay. Activation of the subpixel hinting support can be
controlled with the `TT_CONFIG_OPTION_SUBPIXEL_HINTING'
configuration option at compile time: If set to value 1, you
get the old Infinality mode (which was never the default due to
its slowness). Value 2 activates the new subpixel hinting mode,
and value 3 activates both. The default is value 2. At run
time, you can select the subpixel hinting mode with the
`interpreter-version' property (provided you have compiled in
the corresponding hinting mode); see `ftttdrv.h' for more.
* Support for the following scripts has been added to the
auto-hinter: Armenian, Cherokee, Ethiopic, Georgian, Gujarati,
Gurmukhi, Malayalam, Sinhala, Tamil.
- Rebase freetype2-subpixel.patch.
- Update to version 2.6.4:
