- Bugzilla #308961: improve workaround patch for the broken
underlining in the CMEX fonts
(again by Peng Wu <pwu@novell.com>).
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Oct 02 16:38:08 CEST 2007 - mfabian@suse.de
- Bugzilla #308961: add workaround for broken underlining
when using the CMEX fonts (by Peng Wu <pwu@novell.com>).
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Jul 03 16:19:11 CEST 2007 - mfabian@suse.de
- update to 2.3.5. Extract from the doc/CHANGES file:
• Some subglyphs in TrueType fonts were handled incorrectly due
to a missing graphics state reinitialization.
• Large .Z files (as distributed with some X11 packages)
weren't handled correctly, making FreeType increase the heap
stack in an endless loop.
• A large number of bugs have been fixed to avoid crashes and
endless loops with invalid fonts.
• The two new cache functions `FTC_ImageCache_LookupScaler' and
`FTC_SBit_Cache_LookupScaler' have been added to allow lookup of
glyphs using an `FTC_Scaler' object; this makes it possible to
use fractional pixel sizes in the cache. The demo programs have
been updated accordingly to use this feature.
• A new API `FT_Get_CMap_Format' has been added to get the
cmap format of a TrueType font. This is useful in handling
PDF files. The code has been contributed by Derek Clegg.
• The auto-hinter now produces better output by default for
non-Latin scripts like Indic. This was done by using the CJK
hinting module as the default instead of the Latin one. Thanks
to Rahul Bhalerao for this suggestion.
• A new API `FT_Face_CheckTrueTypePatents' has been added to find
out whether a given TrueType font uses patented bytecode
instructions. The `ft2demos' bundle contains a new program
called `ftpatchk' which demonstrates its usage.
• A new API `FT_Face_SetUnpatentedHinting' has been added to
enable or disable the unpatented hinter.
• Support for Windows FON files in PE format has been contributed
by Dmitry Timoshkov.

Mon Jun 04 14:58:01 CEST 2007 - mfabian@suse.de
- Bugzilla #275072: (from upstream CVS):
Check for negative number of points in contours. Problem
reported by Victor Stinner <victor.stinner@haypocalc.com>.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue May 22 16:47:15 CEST 2007 - mfabian@suse.de
- fix last patch to avoid crashes when loader->exec == NULL.
(caused crashes in xpdf, kpdf, acroread for me for many
.pdf files).
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon May 21 17:16:35 CEST 2007 - mfabian@suse.de
- Bugzilla #273714: ('¼', '½', and '¾' in "Albany AMT" are
rendered very badly): apply fix from upstream CVS, thanks
to Werner LEMBERG.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Apr 10 16:42:14 CEST 2007 - mfabian@suse.de
- update to 2.3.4. Extract from the doc/CHANGES file:
• A serious bug in the handling of bitmap fonts (and bitmap
strikes of outline fonts) has been introduced in 2.3.3.
• Remove a serious regression in the TrueType bytecode
interpreter that was introduced in version 2.3.2. Note that
this does not disable the improvements introduced to the
interpreter in version 2.3.2, only some ill cases that occurred
with certain fonts (though a few popular ones).
• The auto-hinter now ignores single-point contours for
computing blue zones. This bug created `wavy' baselines when
rendering text with various fonts that use these contours to
model mark-attach points (these are points that are never
rasterized and are placed outside of the glyph's real
outline).
• The `rsb_delta' and `lsb_delta' glyph slot fields are now set
to 0 for mono-spaced fonts. Otherwise code that uses them
would essentially ruin the fixed-advance property.
• Fix CVE-2007-1351 which can cause an integer overflow while
parsing BDF fonts, leading to a potentially exploitable heap
overflow condition.
• FreeType returned incorrect kerning information from TrueType
fonts when the bytecode interpreter was enabled. This
happened due to a typo introduced in version 2.3.0.
• Negative kerning values from PFM files are now reported
correctly (they were read as 16-bit unsigned values from the
file).
• Fixed a small memory leak when `FT_Init_FreeType' failed for
some reason.
• The Postscript hinter placed and sized very thin and ghost
stems incorrectly.
• The TrueType bytecode interpreter has been fixed to get rid
of most of the rare differences seen in comparison to the
Windows font loader.
• A new demo program `ftdiff' has been added to compare
TrueType hinting, FreeType's auto hinting, and rendering
without hinting in three columns.
• The auto-hinter now better deals with serifs and corner cases
(e.g., glyph '9' in Arial at 9pt, 96dpi). It also improves
spacing adjustments and doesn't change widths for non-spacing
glyphs.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Feb 05 16:03:56 CET 2007 - mfabian@suse.de
- update to 2.3.1.
• The TrueType interpreter sometimes returned incorrect
horizontal metrics due to a bug in the handling of the SHZ
instruction.
• A typo in a security check introduced after
version 2.2.1 prevented FreeType to render some glyphs in CFF
fonts.

from upstream CVS which renders slightly better.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Mar 14 14:38:57 CET 2006 - mfabian@suse.de
- Bugzilla #157441: FZSongTi.ttf contains a lot more (CJK)-glyphs
than most other fonts, therefore we have to expand the cjk range
in Takashi Iwai's "ft2-autofit-02-cjk.diff" to render these
glyphs correctly as well.
- Bugzilla #157441: don't apply ft2-autofit-03-latin-baseline.diff
as it has some side effects.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Jan 25 21:30:13 CET 2006 - mls@suse.de

- Bugzilla #97202: apply workaround to avoid crashing the Xserver.
I need to disable FT_OPTIMIZE_MEMORY again to apply that
workaround.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Jul 19 16:05:32 CEST 2005 - mfabian@suse.de
- enable FT_OPTIMIZE_MEMORY.
- enable the byte code interpreter again.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Jul 12 14:13:56 CEST 2005 - mfabian@suse.de
- update to 2.1.10.
+ fixes serious bug introduced in 2.1.8 which caused many
distortions for TrueType fonts
+ amount of heap memory used is drastically reduced
For more details see /usr/share/doc/packages/freetype2/CHANGES.
- disable freetype-autohint-cjkfonts.patch for the moment, the
auto-hinter has been replaced with a new module called the
'auto-fitter' which is "prepared better to support non-latin1
scripts in next releases". Currently the rendering quality of
CJK fonts seems to have suffered though compared to 2.1.9
with the freetype-autohint-cjkfonts.patch.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Jul 4 16:45:33 CEST 2005 - meissner@suse.de
- Use system zlib.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Apr 16 11:14:05 CEST 2004 - mfabian@suse.de
- Bugzilla #38205:
add patch from http://www.kde.gr.jp/~akito/patch/freetype2/2.1.7
to improve the hinting results (mainly for CJK fonts).
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Mar 24 01:14:22 CET 2004 - mfabian@suse.de
- Add ft2-stream-compat.diff for binary compatibility when
upgrading from SLES8 to SLES9.
The FT_Stream functions have been renamed and although these
functions were declared for internal use only by the freetype
developers, they have been used in Qt (and possibly elsewhere).
Therefore, 3rd party which linked statically against Qt might
not work after upgrading from SLES8 to SLES9.
Fix this problem with a patch by Kurt Garloff <garloff@suse.de>
which defines appropriate weak symbols.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Mar 16 11:32:40 CET 2004 - mfabian@suse.de

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Jan 9 14:57:15 CET 2004 - mfabian@suse.de
- add "-fno-strict-aliasing" compile option to prevent crashes
for example in ftdump and mkfontscale.
-------------------------------------------------------------------

and followups.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Aug 26 23:29:14 CEST 2003 - mfabian@suse.de
- add freetype2-bitmap-style.patch: check the bdf properties
WEIGHT_NAME and SLANT case insensitively. Without that,
these properties are not correctly recognized when the fonts
specify them in lower case.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Apr 8 16:12:08 CEST 2003 - mfabian@suse.de
- update to 2.1.4
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Apr 4 12:04:35 CEST 2003 - mfabian@suse.de
- update to 2.1.4rc2
- freetype2-gzip-header.patch is obsolete -> removed
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Mar 7 21:58:14 CET 2003 - mfabian@suse.de
- Bug #24755: further improvement: add " Wide" to the family name
for fonts which have an average width >= point size, i.e. fonts
which have glyphs which are at least square (or maybe even
wider). This makes fonts which contain only double width
characters (for example the "misc-fixed" 18x18ja.bdf) clearly
distinct from single width fonts of the same family and
avoids that they get accidentally selected via freetype2/Xft2.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Mar 7 16:06:11 CET 2003 - mfabian@suse.de
- Bug #24775: partly fixed by a patch to freetype which returns
"FOUNDRY FAMILY_NAME" as the family_name for bitmap fonts.
Without that change, all bitmap fonts which have "Fixed"
in FAMILY_NAME also had the same family_name "Fixed" via
freetype/Xft2 and it was not possible to distinguish between
them, therefore the selection of "Fixed" bitmap fonts produced
quite surprising results. After this change, the fonts show
up for example as "Misc Fixed", "Etl Fixed", etc. via
freetype2/Xft2, which makes it easy to select the right one.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Mar 3 12:52:02 CET 2003 - mfabian@suse.de
- fix for the bug that caused FreeType to loop endlessly when
trying to read certain compressed gzip files. The following test
could be used to reveal the bug:
touch 0123456789 ; gzip 0123456789 ; ftdump 0123456789.gz
(from upstream CVS)
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Feb 14 16:07:55 CET 2003 - mfabian@suse.de
- freetype-bdf-pcf-drivr.patch: use FT_UShort instead of FT_Short
for the glyph number of bitmap fonts. The GNU Unicode font
has 34725 glyphs and because of the usage of signed short
all glyphs with an index above 2^15 couldn't be displayed.
Thanks to Gerd Knorr <kraxel@suse.de>.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Jan 30 15:52:36 CET 2003 - mfabian@suse.de
- disable freetype2-bc.patch, see

this would be a loop in the requirements)
- add doc files and license texts.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Jan 10 18:34:13 CET 2003 - mfabian@suse.de
- fix checking of .gz header (fixes Bug #22712, i.e. fixes
the problem that freetype2 couldn't open .pcf.gz files which
contain the original file name or extra fields)
- add programs from ft2demos-2.1.3.
-------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Oct 24 15:37:31 CEST 2002 - mfabian@suse.de
- update to 2.1.2. From the release notes:
That's probably the first release of FreeType in the 2.1.x
development branch that can safely replace 2.0.9 on any
system.
