CHANGES BETWEEN 2.6.2 and 2.6.3
I. IMPORTANT CHANGES
- Khmer, Myanmar, Bengali, and Kannada script support has been
added to the auto-hinter.
II. MISCELLANEOUS
- Better support of Indic scripts like Devanagari by using a
top-to-bottom hinting flow.
- All FreeType macros starting with two underscores have been
renamed to avoid a violation of both the C and C++ standards.
Example: Header macros of the form `__FOO_H__' are now called
`FOO_H_'. In most cases, this should be completely transparent
to the user. The exception to this is `__FTERRORS_H__', which
must be sometimes undefined by the user to get FreeType error
strings: Both this form and the new `FTERRORS_H_' macro are
accepted for backwards compatibility.
- Minor improvements mainly to the Type 1 driver.
- The new CFF engine now supports all Type 2 operators except
`random'.
- The macro `_STANDALONE_', used for compiling the B/W and smooth
rasterizers as stand-alone modules, has been renamed to
`STANDALONE_', since macro names starting with an underscore and
followed by an uppercase letter are reserved in both C and C++.
- Function `FT_Library_SetLcdFilterWeights' now also activates
custom LCD filter weights (instead of just adjusting them).
- Support for `unpatented hinting' has been completely removed:
Consequently, the two functions `FT_Face_CheckTrueTypePatents'
and `FT_Face_SetUnpatentedHinting' now return always false,
doing nothing.
- The `ftgamma' demo program has been modernized; the gamma grid
display has been moved from `ftview' to this program.
- It is now possible to cycle through the available LCD fitlering
modes.
