* The 'COLR' v1 API is now considered as stable.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/typography/opentype/spec/colr
* For OpenType Variable Fonts, `avar` table format 2.0 is now
supported. The code was contributed by Behdad Esfahbod.
Note that this is an extension supported on recent Apple platforms
and by HarfBuzz, but not yet in the OpenType standard! See
https://github.com/harfbuzz/boring-expansion-spec/blob/main/avar2.md
for the specification. To deactivate it, define the configuration
macro 'TT_CONFIG_OPTION_NO_BORING_EXPANSION'.
* A new API `FT_GlyphSlot_Slant` to slant a glyph by a given angle
has been added. Note that this function is part of `ftsynth.h`,
which is still considered to be in alpha stage.
* TrueType interpreter version 38 (also known as 'Infinality') that
was first introduced about 10 years ago in FreeType 2.4.11 is now
deprecated and slated to be removed in the next version. TrueType
interpreter version 40 has been FreeType's default version for six
years now and provides an excellent alternative. This is the last
FreeType version with TT_INTERPRETER_VERSION_38 and
TT_INTERPRETER_VERSION_40 treated differently.
* The only referenced but never documented configuration macro
`FT_CONFIG_OPTION_NO_GLYPH_NAMES` has been removed.
* To avoid reserved identifiers that are globally defined, the
auto-hinter debugging macros (which are only available if
`FT_DEBUG_AUTOFIT` is defined)

- Update to 2.12.1:
- Loading CFF fonts sometimes made FreeType crash (bug introduced in
version 2.12.0)
- Loading a fully hinted TrueType glyph a second time (without
caching) sometimes yielded different rendering results if TrueType
hinting was active (bug introduced in version 2.12.0).
- The generation of the pkg-config file `freetype2.pc` was broken if
the build was done with cmake (bug introduced in version 2.12.0).

- update to 2.12.0:
- FreeType now handles OT-SVG fonts, to be controlled with
`FT_CONFIG_OPTION_SVG` configuration macro. By default, it can
only load the 'SVG ' table of an OpenType font. However, by using
the `svg-hooks` property of the new 'ot-svg' module it is possible
to register an external SVG rendering engine. The FreeType demo
programs have been set up to use 'librsvg' as the rendering
library.
- The handling of fonts with an 'sbix' table has been improved.
- The internal 'zlib' code has been updated to be in sync with the
current 'zlib' version (1.2.11).
- The previously internal load flag `FT_LOAD_SBITS_ONLY` is now
public.
- Some minor improvements of the building systems, in particular
handling of the 'zlib' library (internal vs. external).
- Support for non-desktop Universal Windows Platform.
- Various other minor bug and documentation fixes.
- The `ftdump` demo program shows more information for Type1 fonts
if option `-n` is given.
- `ftgrid` can now display embedded bitmap strikes.

- update to 2.11.1:
* Some fields in the `CID_FaceDictRec`, `CID_FaceInfoRec`, and
`FT_Data` structures have been changed from signed to unsigned
type, which better reflects the actual usage. It is also an
additional means to protect against malformed input.
* Cmake support has been further improved. To do that various
backward-incompatible changes were necessary; please see file
`CMakeLists.txt` for more details.
* The experimental 'COLR' v1 API has been updated to the latest
OpenType standard 1.9.

* A new rendering module has been added to create 8-bit Signed
Distance Field (SDF) bitmaps for both outline and bitmap glyphs.
* A new, experimental API is now available for surfacing properties
of 'COLR' v1 color fonts.
* A new function `FT_Get_Transform` returns the values set by
FT_Set_Transform.
* The legacy Type 1 and CFF engines are further demoted due to lack
of CFF2 charstring support.
* The experimental 'warp' mode (AF_CONFIG_OPTION_USE_WARPER) for the
auto-hinter has been removed.
* The smooth rasterizer performance has been improved by >10%.
* PCF bitmap fonts compressed with LZW (these are usually files with
the extension .pcf.Z) are now handled correctly.
- Update to version 2.11.0
* A new demo program `ftsdf` is available to display Signed Distance
Fields of glyphs.
* The `ftlint` demo program has been extended to do more testing of
its input.
* The `ttdebug` demo program didn't show changed point coordinates
(bug introduced in version 2.10.3).
* It is now possible to adjust the axis increment for variable fonts
in the `ftmulti` demo program.
* It is now possible to change the hinting engine in the `ftstring`
demo program.
* The graphical demo programs work better now in native color depth
on win32 and x11.
OBS-URL: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/M17N/freetype2?expand=0&rev=168
* Contains the fix for CVE-2020-15999
* Minor improvements to the B/W rasterizer.
* Auto-hinter support for Medefaidrin script.
* Fix various memory leaks (mainly for CFF) and other issues that
might cause crashes in rare circumstances.
- Update to version 2.10.4
* In `ftview', custom LCD filter values are now normalized and
balanced. Unorthodox filters are still available through the `-L'
command line option.
* The GUI demo programs can now be resized.
* Demo programs that accept command line option `-k' can now handle
function keys, too. The corresponding character codes start with
0xF1. As an example, the POSIX shell syntax (accepted by bash,
ksh, and zsh) -k $'\xF3q' emulates the pressing of function key `F3'
followed by key `q'.
OBS-URL: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/M17N/freetype2?expand=0&rev=164
* Support for WOFF2 fonts, add BR on pkgconfig(libbrotlidec)
* Function `FT_Get_Var_Axis_Flags' returned random data for Type 1
MM fonts.
* Type 1 fonts with non-integer metrics are now supported by the new
(CFF) engine introduced in FreeType 2.9.
* Drop support for Python 2 in Freetype's API reference generator

* Document the `FT2_KEEP_ALIVE' debugging environment variable.
- Update to version 2.10.2
* The `ftbench' demo program has a new test for testing the
`FT_Glyph_Stroke' functionality.
- Add BR on pkgconfig(libbrotlidec) for ftinspect
OBS-URL: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/M17N/freetype2?expand=0&rev=162
* The bytecode hinting of OpenType variation fonts was flawed, since
the data in the `CVAR' table wasn't correctly applied.
* Auto-hinter support for Mongolian.
* The handling of the default character in PCF fonts as introduced
in version 2.10.0 was partially broken, causing premature abortion
of charmap iteration for many fonts.
* If `FT_Set_Named_Instance' was called with the same arguments
twice in a row, the function returned an incorrect error code the
second time.
* Direct rendering using FT_RASTER_FLAG_DIRECT crashed (bug
introduced in version 2.10.0).
* Increased precision while computing OpenType font variation
instances.
* The flattening algorithm of cubic Bezier curves was slightly
changed to make it faster. This can cause very subtle rendering
changes, which aren't noticeable by the eye, however.
* The auto-hinter now disables hinting if there are blue zones
defined for a `style' (i.e., a certain combination of a script and
its related typographic features) but the font doesn't contain any
characters needed to set up at least one blue zone.
- Add tarball signatures and freetype2.keyring
- Update to version 2.10.1
* The `ftmulti' demo program now supports multiple hidden axes with
the same name tag.
* `ftview', `ftstring', and `ftgrid' got a `-k' command line option
to emulate a sequence of keystrokes at start-up.
* `ftview', `ftstring', and `ftgrid' now support screen dumping to a
PNG file.
OBS-URL: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/M17N/freetype2?expand=0&rev=157
* A bunch of new functions has been added to access and process
COLR/CPAL data of OpenType fonts with color-layered glyphs.
* As a GSoC 2018 project, Nikhil Ramakrishnan completely
overhauled and modernized the API reference.
* The logic for computing the global ascender, descender, and
height of OpenType fonts has been slightly adjusted for
consistency.
* `TT_Set_MM_Blend' could fail if called repeatedly with the same
arguments.
* The precision of handling deltas in Variation Fonts has been
increased.The problem did only show up with multidimensional
designspaces.
* New function `FT_Library_SetLcdGeometry' to set up the geometry
of LCD subpixels.
* FreeType now uses the `defaultChar' property of PCF fonts to set
the glyph for the undefined character at glyph index 0 (as
FreeType already does for all other supported font formats). As
a consequence, the order of glyphs of a PCF font if accessed
with FreeType can be different now compared to previous
versions.
This change doesn't affect PCF font access with cmaps.
* `FT_Select_Charmap' has been changed to allow parameter value
`FT_ENCODING_NONE', which is valid for BDF, PCF, and Windows FNT
formats to access built-in cmaps that don't have a predefined
`FT_Encoding' value.
* A previously reserved field in the `FT_GlyphSlotRec' structure
now holds the glyph index.
* The usual round of fuzzer bug fixes to better reject malformed
fonts.
OBS-URL: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/M17N/freetype2?expand=0&rev=156
* Type 1 fonts containing flex features were not rendered
correctly (bug introduced in version 2.9).
* CVE-2018-6942: Older FreeType versions can crash with certain
malformed variation fonts.
* Bug fix: Multiple calls to `FT_Get_MM_Var' returned garbage.
* Emboldening of bitmaps didn't work correctly sometimes, showing
various artifacts (bug introduced in version 2.8.1).
* The auto-hinter script ranges have been updated for Unicode 11.
No support for new scripts have been added, however, with the
exception of Georgian Mtavruli.
- Drop upstreamed patches:
* bnc1079600.patch
* psaux-flex.patch
* 0001-src-truetype-ttinterp.c-Ins_GETVARIATION-Avoid-NULL-.patch
* 0001-truetype-Better-protection-against-invalid-VF-data.patch
- Update to version 2.9.1
* No changelog upstream.
OBS-URL: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/M17N/freetype2?expand=0&rev=147
* Advance width values of variation fonts were often wrong.
* More fixes for variation font support; you should update to
this version if you want to support them.
* As a GSoC project, Ewald Hew extended the new (Adobe) CFF
engine to handle Type 1 fonts also, thus greatly improving
the rendering of this format. This is the new default.
* A new function, `FT_Set_Named_Instance', can be used to set
or change the current named instance.
* Starting with this FreeType version, resetting variation
coordinates will return to the currently selected named
instance. Previously, FreeType returned to the base font
(i.e., no instance set).
* Some fuzzer fixes to better reject malformed fonts.
- Update to version 2.9
* The `ftbench' demo program has a new test for opening a new
face and loading some glyphs.
* The `ftbench' demo program has a new option `-j' to specify
the last glyph index to be used in the tests.
* The `ftgrid' demo program has a new option `-n' to suppress
display of named instances of variation fonts.
* The `ttdebug' demo program can now show a stack trace (key `K')
and switch between hexadecimal and decimal display of integers
(key `I').
