- update to 2.14.1: * The auto-hinter got new abilities. It can now better separate diacritic glyphs from base glyphs at small sizes by artificially moving diacritics up (or down) if necessary * Tilde accent glyphs get vertically stretched at small sizes so that they don't degenerate to horizontal lines. * Diacritics directly attached to a base glyph (like the ogonek in character 'ę') no longer distort the shape of the base glyph * The TrueType instruction interpreter was optimized to produce a 15% gain in the glyph loading speed. * Handling of Variation Fonts is now considerably faster * TrueType and CFF glyph loading speed has been improved by 5-10% on modern 64-bit platforms as a result of better handling of fixed-point multiplication. * The BDF driver now loads fonts 75% faster.

- update to 2.13.2: * Some fields in the FT_Outline structure 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. * Rare double-free crashes in the cache subsystem have been fixed. * Excessive stack allocation in the autohinter has been fixed. * The B/W rasterizer has received a major upkeep that results in large performance improvements. The rendering speed has increased and even doubled for very complex glyphs. library. - Re-enable freetype-config, there is just too many fallouts. truetype/ttinterp.c (bsc#1079600) - Add psaux-flex.patch to fix a regression in Type1 rendering instance. Previously, FreeType returned to the base font - removed freetype2-subpixel.patch in favor of above - get 2.5.3 from Factory as it fixes

- update to 2.13.0: * 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) ``` _af_debug_disable_horz_hints _af_debug_disable_vert_hints _af_debug_disable_blue_hints _af_debug_hints

- Update to version 2.11.0 * 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.
