| 3.3.1 (released 2016-12-15) |
| --------------------------- |
| |
| - [setup] We no longer use versioneer.py to compute fonttools version |
| from git metadata, as this has caused issues for some users (#767). |
| Now we bump the version strings manually with a custom ``release`` |
| command of setup.py script. |
| |

| - [merge] Ignore LangSys if None (a11bc56) |
| - [subset] Fix subsetting MathVariants (78d3cbe) |
| - [OS/2] Fix "Private Use (plane 15)" range (08a0d55). Thanks @mashabow |
| |

| --------------------------- |
| |
| - [OS/2] fix checking ``fsSelection`` bits matching ``head.macStyle`` |
| bits |
| - [varLib] added ``--build-HVAR`` option to generate ``HVAR`` table for |
| fonts with TrueType outlines. For ``CFF2``, it is enabled by default. |
| |
| 3.2.0 (released 2016-11-02) |
| --------------------------- |
| |
| - [varLib] Improve support for OpenType 1.8 Variable Fonts: |
| - Implement GDEF's VariationStore |
| - Implement HVAR/VVAR tables |
| - Partial support for loading MutatorMath .designspace files with |
| varLib.designspace module |
| - Add varLib.models with Variation fonts interpolation models |
| - Implement GSUB/GPOS FeatureVariations |
| - Initial support for interpolating and merging OpenType Layout tables |
| (see ``varLib.interpolate_layout`` and ``varLib.merger`` modules) |
| - [API change] Change version to be an integer instead of a float in |
| XML output for GSUB, GPOS, GDEF, MATH, BASE, JSTF, HVAR, VVAR, feat, |
| hhea and vhea tables. Scripts that set the Version for those to 1.0 |
| or other float values also need fixing. A warning is emitted when |
| code or XML needs fix. |
| - several bug fixes to the cffLib module, contributed by Adobe's |
| @readroberts |
| - The XML output for CFF table now has a 'major' and 'minor' elements |
| for specifying whether it's version 1.0 or 2.0 (support for CFF2 is |
| coming soon) |
| - [setup.py] remove undocumented/deprecated ``extra_path`` Distutils |
| argument. This means that we no longer create a "FontTools" subfolder |
| in site-packages containing the actual fontTools package, as well as |
| the standalone xmlWriter and sstruct modules. The latter modules are |
| also deprecated, and scheduled for removal in upcoming releases. |
| Please change your import statements to point to from fontTools.misc |
| import xmlWriter and from fontTools.misc import sstruct. |
| - [scripts] Add a 'fonttools' command-line tool that simply runs |
| ``fontTools.*`` sub-modules: e.g. ``fonttools ttx``, |
| ``fonttools subset``, etc. |
| - [hmtx/vmts] Read advance width/heights as unsigned short (uint16); |
| automatically round float values to integers. |
| - [ttLib/xmlWriter] add 'newlinestr=None' keyword argument to |
| ``TTFont.saveXML`` for overriding os-specific line endings (passed on |
| to ``XMLWriter`` instances). |
| - [versioning] Use versioneer instead of ``setuptools_scm`` to |
| dynamically load version info from a git checkout at import time. |
| - [feaLib] Support backslash-prefixed glyph names. |
| |
| 3.1.2 (released 2016-09-27) |

| - restore Makefile as an alternative way to build/check/install |
| - README.md: update instructions for installing package from source, |
| and for running test suite |
| - NEWS: Change log was out of sync with tagged release |
| |
| 3.1.1 (released 2016-09-27) |
| --------------------------- |
| |
| - Fix ``ttLibVersion`` attribute in TTX files still showing '3.0' |
| instead of '3.1'. |

| - [ttLib.tables] Implement 'meta' and 'trak' tables. |
| - [ttx] Add --flavor option for compiling to 'woff' or 'woff2'; add |
| ``--with-zopfli`` option to use Zopfli to compress WOFF 1.0 fonts. |
| - [subset] Support subsetting 'COLR'/'CPAL' and 'CBDT'/'CBLC' color |
| fonts tables, and 'gvar' table for variation fonts. |
| - [Snippets] Add ``symfont.py``, for symbolic font statistics analysis; |
| interpolatable.py, a preliminary script for detecting interpolation |
| errors; ``{merge,dump}_woff_metadata.py``. |
| - [classifyTools] Helpers to classify things into classes. |
| - [CI] Run tests on Windows, Linux and macOS using Appveyor and Travis |
| CI; check unit test coverage with Coverage.py/Coveralls; automatic |
| deployment to PyPI on tags. |
| - [loggingTools] Use Python built-in logging module to print messages. |

| ------------------------- |
| |
| - Add Snippet scripts for cmap subtable format conversion, printing |
| GSUB/GPOS features, building a GX font from two masters |

| 2.3 (released 2009-11-08) |
| ------------------------- |
| |
| - TrueType Collection (TTC) support |
| - Python 2.6 support |
| - Update Unicode data to 5.2.0 |
| - Couple of bug fixes |
| |
| 2.2 (released 2008-05-18) |
| ------------------------- |
| |
| - ClearType support |
| - cmap format 1 support |
| - PFA font support |
| - Switched from Numeric to numpy |
| - Update Unicode data to 5.1.0 |
| - Update AGLFN data to 1.6 |
| - Many bug fixes |
| |
| 2.1 (released 2008-01-28) |
| ------------------------- |
| |
| - Many years worth of fixes and features |
| |
| 2.0b2 (released 2002-??-??) |
| --------------------------- |
| |
| - Be "forgiving" when interpreting the maxp table version field: |
| interpret any value as 1.0 if it's not 0.5. Fixes dumping of these |
| GPL fonts: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/pds.cgi?ports/chinese/wangttf |
| - Fixed ttx -l: it turned out this part of the code didn't work with |
| Python 2.2.1 and earlier. My bad to do most of my testing with a |
| different version than I shipped TTX with :-( |
| - Fixed bug in ClassDef format 1 subtable (Andreas Seidel bumped into |
| this one). |
| |
| 2.0b1 (released 2002-09-10) |
| --------------------------- |
| |
| - Fixed embarrassing bug: the master checksum in the head table is now |
| calculated correctly even on little-endian platforms (such as Intel). |
| - Made the cmap format 4 compiler smarter: the binary data it creates |
| is now more or less as compact as possible. TTX now makes more |
| compact data than in any shipping font I've tested it with. |
| - Dump glyph names as a separate "GlyphOrder" pseudo table as opposed |
| to as part of the glyf table (obviously needed for CFF-OTF's). |
| - Added proper support for the CFF table. |
| - Don't barf on empty tables (questionable, but "there are font out |
| there...") |
| - When writing TT glyf data, align glyphs on 4-byte boundaries. This |
| seems to be the current recommendation by MS. Also: don't barf on |
| fonts which are already 4-byte aligned. |
| - Windows installer contributed bu Adam Twardoch! Yay! |
| - Changed the command line interface again, now by creating one new |
| tool replacing the old ones: ttx It dumps and compiles, depending on |
| input file types. The options have changed somewhat. |
| - The -d option is back (output dir) |
| - ttcompile's -i options is now called -m (as in "merge"), to avoid |
| clash with dump's -i. |
| - The -s option ("split tables") no longer creates a directory, but |
| instead outputs a small .ttx file containing references to the |
| individual table files. This is not a true link, it's a simple file |
| name, and the referenced file should be in the same directory so |
| ttcompile can find them. |
| - compile no longer accepts a directory as input argument. Instead it |
| can parse the new "mini-ttx" format as output by "ttx -s". |
| - all arguments are input files |
| - Renamed the command line programs and moved them to the Tools |
| subdirectory. They are now installed by the setup.py install script. |
| - Added OpenType support. BASE, GDEF, GPOS, GSUB and JSTF are (almost) |
| fully supported. The XML output is not yet final, as I'm still |
| considering to output certain subtables in a more human-friendly |
| manner. |
| - Fixed 'kern' table to correctly accept subtables it doesn't know |
| about, as well as interpreting Apple's definition of the 'kern' table |
| headers correctly. |
| - Fixed bug where glyphnames were not calculated from 'cmap' if it was |
| (one of the) first tables to be decompiled. More specifically: it |
| cmap was the first to ask for a glyphID -> glyphName mapping. |
| - Switched XML parsers: use expat instead of xmlproc. Should be faster. |
| - Removed my UnicodeString object: I now require Python 2.0 or up, |
| which has unicode support built in. |
| - Removed assert in glyf table: redundant data at the end of the table |
| is now ignored instead of raising an error. Should become a warning. |
| - Fixed bug in hmtx/vmtx code that only occured if all advances were |
| equal. |
| - Fixed subtle bug in TT instruction disassembler. |
| - Couple of fixes to the 'post' table. |
| - Updated OS/2 table to latest spec. |
| |
| 1.0b1 (released 2001-08-10) |
| --------------------------- |
| |
| - Reorganized the command line interface for ttDump.py and |
| ttCompile.py, they now behave more like "normal" command line tool, |
| in that they accept multiple input files for batch processing. |
| - ttDump.py and ttCompile.py don't silently override files anymore, but |
| ask before doing so. Can be overridden by -f. |
| - Added -d option to both ttDump.py and ttCompile.py. |
| - Installation is now done with distutils. (Needs work for environments |
| without compilers.) |
| - Updated installation instructions. |
| - Added some workarounds so as to handle certain buggy fonts more |
| gracefully. |
| - Updated Unicode table to Unicode 3.0 (Thanks Antoine!) |
| - Included a Python script by Adam Twardoch that adds some useful stuff |
| to the Windows registry. |
| - Moved the project to SourceForge. |
| |
| 1.0a6 (released 2000-03-15) |
| --------------------------- |
| |
| - Big reorganization: made ttLib a subpackage of the new fontTools |
| package, changed several module names. Called the entire suite |
| "FontTools" |
| - Added several submodules to fontTools, some new, some older. |
| - Added experimental CFF/GPOS/GSUB support to ttLib, read-only (but XML |
| dumping of GPOS/GSUB is for now disabled) |
| - Fixed hdmx endian bug |
| - Added -b option to ttCompile.py, it disables recalculation of |
| bounding boxes, as requested by Werner Lemberg. |
| - Renamed tt2xml.pt to ttDump.py and xml2tt.py to ttCompile.py |
| - Use ".ttx" as file extension instead of ".xml". |
| - TTX is now the name of the XML-based *format* for TT fonts, and not |
| just an application. |
| |
| 1.0a5 |
| ----- |
| |
| Never released |
| |
| - More tables supported: hdmx, vhea, vmtx |
| |
| 1.0a3 & 1.0a4 |
| ------------- |
| |
| Never released |
| |
| - fixed most portability issues |
| - retracted the "Euro_or_currency" change from 1.0a2: it was |
| nonsense! |
| |
| 1.0a2 (released 1999-05-02) |
| --------------------------- |
| |
| - binary release for MacOS |
| - genenates full FOND resources: including width table, PS font name |
| info and kern table if applicable. |
| - added cmap format 4 support. Extra: dumps Unicode char names as XML |
| comments! |
| - added cmap format 6 support |
| - now accepts true type files starting with "true" (instead of just |
| 0x00010000 and "OTTO") |
| - 'glyf' table support is now complete: I added support for composite |
| scale, xy-scale and two-by-two for the 'glyf' table. For now, |
| component offset scale behaviour defaults to Apple-style. This only |
| affects the (re)calculation of the glyph bounding box. |
| - changed "Euro" to "Euro_or_currency" in the Standard Apple Glyph |
| order list, since we cannot tell from the 'post' table which is |
| meant. I should probably doublecheck with a Unicode encoding if |
| available. (This does not affect the output!) |
| |
| Fixed bugs: - 'hhea' table is now recalculated correctly - fixed wrong |
| assumption about sfnt resource names |
| |
| 1.0a1 (released 1999-04-27) |
| --------------------------- |
| |
| - initial binary release for MacOS |
