+:88f2e05288ba
+CHANGES BETWEEN 2.4.4 and 2.4.5
+I. IMPORTANT BUG FIXES
+- A rendering regression  for second-order Bézier curves  has been
+fixed, introduced in 2.4.3.
+II. IMPORTANT CHANGES
+- If autohinting  is not  explicitly disabled,  FreeType now  uses
+the autohinter if  a TrueType based font doesn't  contain native
+hints.
+- The load flag FT_LOAD_IGNORE_GLOBAL_ADVANCE_WIDTH  has been made
+redundant and  is simply ignored;  this means that FreeType  now
+ignores the global advance width value in TrueType fonts.
+III. MISCELLANEOUS
+- `FT_Sfnt_Table_Info' can now return the number of SFNT tables of
+a font.
+- Support for PCF files compressed with bzip2 has been contributed
+by Joel  Klinghed.  To  make this  work, the  OS must  provide a
+bzip2 library.
+- Bradley  Grainger  contributed  project  and  solution  files in
+Visual Studio 2010 format.
+- Again some fixes to better handle broken fonts.
+- Some improvements to the B/W rasterizer.
+- Fixes to the cache module to improve robustness.
+======================================================================
+CHANGES BETWEEN 2.4.3 and 2.4.4
+I. IMPORTANT BUG FIXES
+- UVS support (TrueType/OpenType cmap format 14) support is fixed.
+This regression has been introduced in version 2.4.0.
+II. MISCELLANEOUS
+- Detect tricky fonts (e.g. MingLiU)  by the lengths and checksums
+of Type42-persistent subtables (`cvt ', `fpgm', and `prep') when
+a TrueType font without family name is given.  The previous fix,
+introduced in 2.4.3,  was too rigorous,  causing many  subsetted
+fonts (mainly  from PDF files) displayed badly  because FreeType
+forced  rendering with  the TrueType bytecode engine  instead of
+the autohinter.
+- Better support for 64bit platforms.
+- More fixes to improve handling of broken fonts.
+======================================================================
+CHANGES BETWEEN 2.4.2 and 2.4.3
+I. IMPORTANT BUG FIXES
+- Fix rendering of certain cubic, S-shaped arcs.   This regression
+has been introduced in version 2.4.0.
+II. MISCELLANEOUS
+- To  fix  the  above  mentioned  rendering  issue,  a  new spline
+flattening algorithm  has been  introduced which  speeds up both
+conic and cubic arcs.
+- Handling of broken fonts has been further improved.
+======================================================================
+CHANGES BETWEEN 2.4.1 and 2.4.2
+I. IMPORTANT BUG FIXES
+- A stack overflow in CFF Type2 CharStrings interpreter is fixed.
+- Handling Type 42 font deallocation was broken; additionally, the
+library is now more robust against malformed Type 42 fonts.
+II. MISCELLANEOUS
+- Two new functions,  `FT_Reference_Library' (in FT_MODULE_H)  and
+`FT_Reference_Face'  (in  FT_FREETYPE_H),  have  been  added  to
+simplify life-cycle management.  A counter gets initialized to 1
+at the  time an  FT_Library (or  FT_Face) structure  is created.
+The  two  new   functions  increment  the  respective   counter.
+`FT_Done_Library' and `FT_Done_Face' then only destroy a library
+or face if the counter is 1, otherwise they simply decrement the
+counter.
+======================================================================
+CHANGES BETWEEN 2.4.0 and 2.4.1
+I. IMPORTANT CHANGES
+- A serious bug in the  CFF font module prevented  display of many
+glyphs in CFF fonts like `MinionPro-Regular.otf'.
+======================================================================
+CHANGES BETWEEN 2.3.12 and 2.4.0
+I. IMPORTANT CHANGES
+- Since May  2010, all  patents  regarding  the TrueType  bytecode
+interpreter have expired worldwide.  Consequently, we now define
+TT_CONFIG_OPTION_BYTECODE_INTERPRETER by  default (and  undefine
+TT_CONFIG_OPTION_UNPATENTED_HINTING).
+- A new function `FT_Library_SetLcdFilterWeights' is available  to
+adjust the filter weights set by `FT_Library_SetLcdFilter'.
+II. MISCELLANEOUS
+- Thanks to many reports from Robert Święcki, FreeType's stability
+in handling broken or damaged fonts is much improved.
+- Support  for LCD  filter  control has  been  added to  the  demo
+programs `ftdiff' and `ftview'.
+======================================================================
+CHANGES BETWEEN 2.3.11 and 2.3.12
+I. IMPORTANT CHANGES
+- For  `FT_Open_Face',  new  parameters  are  available  to ignore
+preferred family names: FT_PARAM_TAG_IGNORE_PREFERRED_FAMILY and
+FT_PARAM_TAG_IGNORE_PREFERRED_SUBFAMILY.
+II. MISCELLANEOUS
+- Support  for  incremental  font  loading  (controlled  with  the
+FT_CONFIG_OPTION_INCREMENTAL macro) is now active by default.
+- Better support for vertical metrics.
+- Various minor bug fixes.
+======================================================================
+CHANGES BETWEEN 2.3.10 and 2.3.11
+I. IMPORTANT BUG FIXES
+- Version 2.3.10 broke PCF support.
+======================================================================
+CHANGES BETWEEN 2.3.10 and 2.3.9
+I. IMPORTANT BUG FIXES
+- If all  ASCII digits in a  font have the  same (unscaled) width,
+the autohinter respects this and won't change it.
+- TrueType fonts  are now  rasterized correctly  if the horizontal
+and vertical resolution differ.
+- Type 1 fonts are now handled with increased precision internally
+to avoid serious rounding issues if non-integral coordinates are
+encountered.
+- Horizontally  condensed CFF  fonts (using the font  matrix) were
+rendered  incorrectly.   This  bug  has  been  introduced  after
+release 2.3.5.
+II. IMPORTANT CHANGES
+- Support for the SFNT cmap 13 table format (as defined by the new
+OpenType 1.6 specification) has been added.
+- B/W rasterization  of well-hinted TrueType  fonts at small sizes
+has been greatly improved.
+- Calculation  of  vertical  metrics in  OpenType  fonts has  been
+improved.
+III. MISCELLANEOUS
+- It  is now  possible to  change  the emboldening  factor in  the
+`ftview' demo program with keys `e' and `E'.
+- It is  now possible  to change the  slant value in  the `ftview'
+demo program with keys `s' and `S'.
+- The  5-levels  grayscale  mode of  the `ftraster'  module (which
+FreeType doesn't use by default) was broken since version 2.3.0.
+- Compilation of the  `ftgrays' and `ftraster' modules  was broken
+in stand-alone mode.
+- Various fixes for compilation on 64bit and 16bit architectures.
+======================================================================
+CHANGES BETWEEN 2.3.9 and 2.3.8
+I. IMPORTANT BUG FIXES
+- Very unfortunately, FreeType 2.3.8 contained a change that broke
+its  official ABI.  The  end result  is  that programs  compiled
+against previous versions of the library, but dynamically linked
+to  2.3.8 can  experience  memory corruption  if  they call  the
+`FT_Get_PS_Font_Info' function.
+We recommend all users to  upgrade to 2.3.9 as soon as possible,
+or to downgrade to a previous  release of the library if this is
+not an option.
+The  origin of the  bug is  that a  new field  was added  to the
+publicly  defined  `PS_FontInfoRec'  structure.   Unfortunately,
+objects of this  type can be stack or  heap allocated by callers
+of   `FT_Get_PS_Font_Info',  resulting   in   a  memory   buffer
+overwrite with its implementation in 2.3.8.
+If  you want to  know whether  your code  is vulnerable  to this
+issue,  simply  search  for  the  substrings  `PS_FontInfo'  and
+`PS_Font_Info' in your source code.  If none is found, your code
+is safe and is not affected.
+The FreeType team apologizes for the problem.
+- The POSIX support  of MacOS resource-fork fonts  (Suitcase fonts
+and LaserWriter Type1 PostScript fonts) was broken in 2.3.8.  If
+FreeType2 is built without Carbon framework, these fonts are not
+handled correctly.  Version 2.3.7 didn't have this bug.
+- `FT_Get_Advance' (and `FT_Get_Advances') returned bad values for
+almost all font formats except TrueType fonts.
+- Fix a bug  in the SFNT  kerning table  loader/parser which could
+crash the engine if certain malformed tables were encountered.
+- Composite SFNT bitmaps are now handled correctly.
+II. IMPORTANT CHANGES
+- The   new  functions   `FT_Get_CID_Is_Internally_CID_keyed'  and
+`FT_Get_CID_From_Glyph_Index'  can be  used to  access CID-keyed
+CFF fonts  via CID  values.  This code  has been  contributed by
+Michael Toftdal.
+III. MISCELLANEOUS
+- `FT_Outline_Get_InsideBorder'  returns   FT_STROKER_BORDER_RIGHT
+for empty outlines.  This was incorrectly documented.
+- The `ftview' demo program now supports UTF-8 encoded strings.
+======================================================================
+CHANGES BETWEEN 2.3.8 and 2.3.7
+I. IMPORTANT BUG FIXES
+- CID-keyed fonts in an SFNT wrapper were not handled correctly.
+- The smooth renderer produced truncated images (on the right) for
+outline parts with negative horizontal values.  Most fonts don't
+contain outlines left  to the y coordinate axis, but  the effect
+was very noticeable for outlines processed with FT_Glyph_Stroke,
+using thick strokes.
+- `FT_Get_TrueType_Engine_Type'  returned a  wrong  value if  both
+configuration  macros  TT_CONFIG_OPTION_BYTECODE_INTERPRETER and
+TT_CONFIG_OPTION_UNPATENTED_HINTING were defined.
+- The  `face_index'  field  in   the  `FT_Face'  structure  wasn't
+initialized properly after calling FT_Open_Face and friends with
+a positive face index for CFFs,  WinFNTs, and, most importantly,
+for TrueType Collections (TTCs).
+II. IMPORTANT CHANGES
+- Rudimentary support for Type 1  fonts and CID-keyed Type 1 fonts
+in an SFNT wrapper has been  added -- such fonts are used on the
+Mac.  The core  SFNT tables `TYP1' and `CID '  are passed to the
+PS Type 1  and CID-keyed PS font drivers;  other tables (`ALMX',
+`BBOX', etc.) are not supported yet.
+- A  new interface  to extract  advance values  of glyphs  without
+loading their outlines has been added.  The functions are called
+`FT_Get_Advance' and `FT_Get_Advances'; they are defined in file
+`ftadvanc.h' (to be accessed as FT_ADVANCES_H).
+- A new function `FT_Get_FSType_Flags' (in FT_FREETYPE_H) has been
+contributed  by   David  Bevan  to  access   the  embedding  and
+subsetting restriction information of fonts.
+III. MISCELLANEOUS
+- FT_MulFix is now an inlined function; by default, assembler code
+is provided for x86 and ARM.  See FT_CONFIG_OPTION_INLINE_MULFIX
+and FT_CONFIG_OPTION_NO_ASSEMBLER (in ftoption.h) for more.
+- The handling of `tricky' fonts  (this is, fonts which don't work
+with the  autohinter, needing the font  format's hinting engine)
+has been generalized and changed slightly:
+. A new  face flag  FT_FACE_FLAG_TRICKY indicates that  the font
+format's  hinting engine is  necessary for  correct rendering.
+The macro FT_IS_TRICKY can be used to check this flag.
+. FT_LOAD_NO_HINTING is now ignored for tricky fonts.  To really
+force  raw  loading  of  such fonts  (without  hinting),  both
+FT_LOAD_NO_HINTING  and FT_LOAD_NO_AUTOHINT  must  be used  --
+this is something which you probably never want to do.
+. Tricky  TrueType fonts  always use  the  bytecode interpreter,
+either the patented or unpatented version.
+- The  function  `FT_GlyphSlot_Own_Bitmap'  has  been  moved  from
+FT_SYNTHESIS_H to FT_BITMAP_H; it  is now part of the `official'
+API.   (The functions  in  FT_SYNTHESIS_H are  still subject  to
+change, however.)
+- In the  `ftdiff'  demo  program you  can now  toggle the  use of
+FT_LOAD_IGNORE_GLOBAL_ADVANCE_WIDTH with key `a'.
+======================================================================
+CHANGES BETWEEN 2.3.7 and 2.3.6
+I. IMPORTANT BUG FIXES
+- If the library  was compiled on an i386  platform using gcc, and
+compiler  option -O3 was  given, `FT_MulFix'  sometimes returned
+incorrect  results   which  could  have   caused  problems  with
+`FT_Request_Metrics'   and  `FT_Select_Metrics',   returning  an
+incorrect descender size.
+- Pure CFFs without  subfonts were scaled incorrectly  if the font
+matrix  was  non-standard.  This  bug  has  been  introduced  in
+version 2.3.6.
+- The  `style_name'  field  in  the  `FT_FaceRec'  structure often
+contained  a wrong  value for  Type 1  fonts.  This misbehaviour
+has been  introduced  in  version  2.3.6  while  trying  to  fix
+another   problem.   [Note,  however,   that   this   value   is
+informative only  since  the  used  algorithm to  extract  it is
+very simplistic.]
+II. IMPORTANT CHANGES
+- Two      new      macros,      FT_OUTLINE_SMART_DROPOUTS     and
+FT_OUTLINE_EXCLUDE_STUBS,  have been introduced.   Together with
+FT_OUTLINE_IGNORE_DROPOUTS (which  was ignored previously) it is
+now possible to control the dropout mode  of the `raster' module
+(for B&W rasterization),   using  the   `flags'  field   in  the
+`FT_Outline' structure.
+- The TrueType bytecode interpreter now passes the dropout mode to
+the B&W rasterizer.  This greatly increases the output for small
+ppem values of many fonts like `pala.ttf'.
+======================================================================
+CHANGES BETWEEN 2.3.6 and 2.3.5
+I. IMPORTANT BUG FIXES
+- A  bunch of  potential security  problems have  been found.  All
+users should update.
+- Microsoft  Unicode  cmaps  in  TrueType  fonts  are  now  always
+preferred over Apple cmaps.  This is not a bug per se, but there
+exist some buggy  fonts created for MS which  have broken  Apple
+cmaps.  This affects  only the automatic  selection of FreeType;
+it's always possible to manually select an Apple Unicode cmap if
+desired.
+- Many bug fixes to the TrueType bytecode interpreter.
+- Improved Mac support.
+- Subsetted CID-keyed CFFs are now supported correctly.
+- CID-keyed CFFs with subfonts which are scaled in a  non-standard
+way are now handled correctly.
+- A call to FT_Open_Face with `face_index' < 0 crashed FreeType if
+the font was a Windows (bitmap) FNT/FON.
+II. IMPORTANT CHANGES
+- The new function `FT_Get_CID_Registry_Ordering_Supplement' gives
+access to  those fields in a CID-keyed font.  The code  has been
+contributed by Derek Clegg.
+- George Williams  contributed  code  to validate  the new  `MATH'
+OpenType  table (within  the `otvalid'  module).  The  `ftvalid'
+demo program has been extended accordingly.
+- An API for cmap 14 support  (for Unicode Variant Selectors, UVS)
+has been contributed by George Williams.
+- A new face flag FT_FACE_FLAG_CID_KEYED has been added,  together
+with a macro FT_IS_CID_KEYED which evaluates to 1 if the font is
+CID-keyed.
+III. MISCELLANEOUS
+- Build support for symbian has been contributed.
+- Better WGL4 glyph name support, contributed by Sergey Tolstov.
+- Debugging output of the  various FT_TRACEX macros is now sent to
+stderr.
+- The `ftview' demo program now provides artificial slanting too.
+- The `ftvalid' demo  program has a new  option `-f' to select the
+font index.
+======================================================================
+CHANGES BETWEEN 2.3.5 and 2.3.4
+I. IMPORTANT BUG FIXES
+- 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.
+II. IMPORTANT CHANGES
+- 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.
+III. MISCELLANEOUS
+- Vincent Richomme contributed Visual C++ project files for Pocket
+PCs.
+======================================================================
+CHANGES BETWEEN 2.3.4 and 2.3.3
+I. IMPORTANT BUG FIXES
+- A serious  bug  in  the  handling  of bitmap  fonts (and  bitmap
+strikes of outline fonts) has been introduced in 2.3.3.
+======================================================================
+CHANGES BETWEEN 2.3.3 and 2.3.2
+I. IMPORTANT BUG FIXES
+- 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
+zero 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.
+II. MISCELLANEOUS
+- Fixed compilation issues on some 64-bit platforms (see ChangeLog
+for details).
+- A new demo  program `ftdiff' has been added  to compare TrueType
+hinting, FreeType's auto  hinting, and rendering without hinting
+in three columns.
+======================================================================
+CHANGES BETWEEN 2.3.2 and 2.3.1
+I. IMPORTANT BUG FIXES
+- 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.
+II. IMPORTANT CHANGES
+- 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.
+- Many   Mac-specific   functions   are  deprecated   (but   still
+available);  modern replacements  have been  provided  for them.
+See the documentation in file `ftmac.h'.
+======================================================================
+CHANGES BETWEEN 2.3.1 and 2.3.0
+I. IMPORTANT BUG FIXES
+- 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.
+======================================================================
+CHANGES BETWEEN 2.3.0 and 2.2.1
+I. IMPORTANT BUG FIXES
+- The  PCF font  loader  is  now much  more  robust while  loading
+malformed font files.
+- Various memory leaks have been found and fixed.
+- The TrueType name loader now deals properly with some fonts that
+encode their  names in UTF-16 (the specification  was vague, and
+the code incorrectly assumed UCS-4).
+- Fixed the TrueType bytecode  loader to deal properly with subtle
+monochrome/gray  issues  when   scaling  the  CVT.   Some  fonts
+exhibited bad rendering artifacts otherwise.
+- `FT_GlyphSlot_Embolden' now  supports vertical layouts correctly
+(it mangled the vertical advance height).
+- Fixed byte  endian issues  of `ftmac.c' to  support Mac OS  X on
+i386.
+- The  PFR  font loader  no  longer  erroneously  tags font  files
+without any outlines as FT_FACE_FLAG_SCALABLE.
+II. NEW API FUNCTIONS
+- `FT_Library_SetLcdFilter' allows you  to select a special filter
+to be  applied to the bitmaps generated  by `FT_Render_Glyph' if
+one of the FT_RENDER_MODE_LCD and FT_RENDER_MODE_LCD_V modes has
+been  selected.  This filter  is used  to reduce  color fringes;
+several  settings are  available  through the  FT_LCD_FILTER_XXX
+enumeration.
+Its  declaration   and  documentation  can  be   found  in  file
+`include/freetype/ftlcdfil.h'   (to  be   accessed   with  macro
+FT_LCD_FILTER_H).
+*IMPORTANT*:     This      function     returns     an     error
+(FT_Err_Unimplemented_Feature) in default  builds of the library
+for patent reasons.  See below.
+- `FT_Get_Gasp'  allows you  to query  the flags  of  the TrueType
+`gasp' table for  a given character pixel size.   This is useful
+to duplicate  the text rendering  of MS Windows when  the native
+bytecode  interpreter is  enabled (which  isn't the  default for
+other patent reasons).
+Its  declaration   and  documentation  can  be   found  in  file
+`include/freetype/ftgasp.h'   (to   be   accessed   with   macro
+FT_GASP_H).
+III. IMPORTANT CHANGES
+- The auto-hinter has been tuned a lot to improve its results with
+serif fonts, resulting in much better font rendering of many web
+pages.
+- The unpatented  hinter is now part  of the default  build of the
+library; we  have added  code to automatically  support `tricky'
+fonts that need it.
+This means  that FreeType should `just work'  with certain Asian
+fonts, like  MingLiU, which cannot properly be  loaded without a
+bytecode interpreter,  but which fortunately  do not use  any of
+the patented  bytecode opcodes.  We detect these  fonts by name,
+so please  report any font file  that doesn't seem  to work with
+FreeType, and  we shall do what we  can to support it  in a next
+release.
+Note  that  the API  hasn't  changed,  so  you can  still  force
+unpatented hinting with a special parameter to `FT_Open_Face' as
+well.  This  might be useful in  same cases; for  example, a PDF
+reader might present  a user option to activate  it to deal with
+certain  `tricky'   embedded  fonts  which   cannot  be  clearly
+identified.
+If you are  a developer for embedded systems,  you might want to
+*disable*  the   feature  to  save  code   space  by  undefining
+TT_CONFIG_OPTION_UNPATENTED_HINTING in file `ftoption.h'.
+- LCD-optimized rendering is now  *disabled* in all default builds
+of  the  library,  mainly   due  to  patent  issues.   For  more
+information see:
+http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/freetype/2006-09/msg00064.html
+A  new  configuration macro  FT_CONFIG_OPTION_SUBPIXEL_RENDERING
+has been introduced in  `ftoption.h'; manually define it in this
+file if you want to re-enable the feature.
+The  change only  affects the  implementation, not  the FreeType
+API.  This means that clients don't need to be modified, because
+the library still generates  LCD decimated bitmaps, but with the
+added constraint that R=G=B on each triplet.
+The  displayed result  should  be equal  to normal  anti-aliased
+rendering.
+Additionally,  if   FT_CONFIG_OPTION_SUBPIXEL_RENDERING  is  not
+defined, the new  `FT_Library_SetLcdFilter' function returns the
+FT_Err_Unimplemented_Feature error code.
+- Some computation bugs in  the TrueType bytecode interpreter were
+found,  which  allow us  to  get rid  of  very  subtle and  rare
+differences we had experienced with the Windows renderer.
+- It is now possible to cross-compile the library easily.  See the
+file `docs/INSTALL.CROSS' for details.
+- The file `src/base/ftmac.c' now contains code for Mac OS X only;
+its  deprecated function  `FT_GetFile_From_Mac_Font_Name' always
+returns an  error even if the QuickDraw  framework is available.
+The previous version has been moved to `builds/mac/ftmac.c'.
+Selecting  configure option `--with-quickdraw-carbon'  makes the
+build process use the original `ftmac.c' file instead of the Mac
+OS X-only version.
+IV. MISCELLANEOUS
+- Various performance and memory footprint optimizations have been
+performed on  the TrueType and CFF font  loaders, sometimes with
+very drastic  benefits (e.g., the  TrueType loader is  now about
+25% faster;  FreeType should use  less heap memory  under nearly
+all conditions).
+- The anti-aliased rasterizer has been optimized and is now 15% to
+25%  percent  faster than  in  previous  versions, depending  on
+content.
+- The Type 1 loader has been improved; as an example, it now skips
+top-level dictionaries properly.
+- Better support for Mac  fonts on POSIX systems, plus compilation
+fixes for Mac OS X on ppc64 where `ftmac.c' cannot be built.
+- Configuration  without `--with-old-mac-fonts'  does  not include
+`ftmac.c' (this was the behaviour in FreeType version 2.1.10).
+- The TrueTypeGX validator (gxvalid) checks the order of glyph IDs
+in the kern table.
+======================================================================
+CHANGES BETWEEN 2.2.1 and 2.2
+I. IMPORTANT BUG FIXES
+- Various integer overflows have been fixed.
+- PFB fonts with MacOS resource fork weren't  handled correctly on
+non-MacOS platforms.
+======================================================================
+CHANGES BETWEEN 2.2 and 2.1.10
+(not released officially)
+I. IMPORTANT BUG FIXES
+- Vertical metrics for SFNT fonts were incorrect sometimes.
+- The FT_HAS_KERNING macro always returned 0.
+- CFF OpenType  fonts didn't  return correct vertical  metrics for
+glyphs with outlines.
+- If FreeType was compiled without hinters, all font formats based
+on PS outlines weren't scaled correctly.
+II. IMPORTANT CHANGES
+- Version 2.2 no longer exposes its internals, this is, the header
+files  located in  the `include/freetype/internal'  directory of
+the source package are not  copied anymore by the `make install'
+command.  Consequently, a number of rogue clients which directly
+access  FreeType's  internal   functions  and  structures  won't
+compile without modification.
+We provide  patches for  most of those  rogue clients.   See the
+following page for more information:
+http://www.freetype.org/freetype2/patches/rogue-patches.html
+Note that, as  a convenience to our Unix  desktop users, version
+2.2 is *binary* compatible with FreeType 2.1.7, which means that
+installing this  release on  an existing distribution  shall not
+break any working desktop.
+- FreeType's build  mechanism has been redesigned.   With GNU make
+it  is  now  sufficient  in   most  cases  to  edit  two  files:
+`modules.cfg',  to  select   the  library  components,  and  the
+configuration  file  `include/freetype/config/ftoption.h' (which
+can be copied to the objects directory).  Removing unused module
+directories   to    prevent   its   compilation    and   editing
+`include/freetype/config/ftmodule.h' is no longer necessary.
+- The  LIGHT  hinting algorithm  produces  more pleasant  results.
+Also, using the  FT_LOAD_TARGET_LIGHT flags within FT_Load_Glyph
+always forces auto-hinting, as a special exception.  This allows
+you to experiment with it  even if you have enabled the TrueType
+bytecode interpreter in your build.
+- The auto hinter now employs a new algorithm for CJK fonts, based
+on Akito  Hirai's patch.   Note that this  only works  for fonts
+with a Unicode charmap at the moment.
+- The following callback function  types have changed slightly (by
+adding the `const' keyword where appropriate):
+FT_Outline_MoveToFunc
+FT_Outline_LineToFunc
+FT_Outline_ConicToFunc
+FT_Outline_CubicToFunc
+FT_SpanFunc
+FT_Raster_RenderFunc
+FT_Glyph_TransformFunc
+FT_Renderer_RenderFunc
+FT_Renderer_TransformFunc
+Note that this doesn't affect binary backward compatibility.
+- On MacOS,  new APIs have  been added as replacements  for legacy
+APIs:  `FT_New_Face_From_FSRef'  for  `FT_New_Face_From_FSSpec',
+and              `FT_GetFile_From_Mac_ATS_Name'              for
+`FT_GetFile_From_Mac_Name'.  Legacy APIs are still available, if
+FreeType is built without disabling them.
+- A new  API `FT_Select_Size'  has been added  to select  a bitmap
+strike  by its  index.   Code using  other  functions to  select
+bitmap strikes should be updated to use this function.
+- A  new API  `FT_Get_SubGlyph_Info'  has been  added to  retrieve
+subglyph data.  This can be  used by rogue clients which used to
+access the internal headers to get the corresponding data.
+- In 2.1.10, the behaviour of `FT_Set_Pixel_Sizes' was changed for
+BDF/PCF fonts,  and only  for them.  This  causes inconsistency.
+In this release,  we undo the change.  The  intent of the change
+in 2.1.10  is to allow  size selection through  real dimensions,
+which can now be done through `FT_Request_Size'.
+- Some security  issues were discovered  and fixed in the  CFF and
+Type  1 loader, causing  crashes of  FreeType by  malformed font
+files.
+III. MISCELLANEOUS
+- The documentation  for FT_LOAD_TARGET_XXX and FT_RENDER_MODE_XXX
+values now better reflects its usage and differences: One set is
+used to specify the hinting algorithm, the other to specify  the
+pixel rendering mode.
+- `FT_New_Face' and `FT_New_Face_From_FSSpec' in ftmac.c have been
+changed to count supported scalable faces (sfnt, LWFN) only, and
+to  return the  number of  available faces  via face->num_faces.
+Unsupported bitmap faces (fbit, NFNT) are ignored.
+- builds/unix/configure  has been  improved for  MacOS X.   It now
+automatically checks available  functions in Carbon library, and
+prepare to use newest  functions by default.  Options to specify
+the  dependencies of  each Carbon  APIs (FSSpec,  FSRef, old/new
+QuickDraw, ATS)  are available too.  By manual  disabling of all
+QuickDraw   functionality,  FreeType   can   be  built   without
+`deprecated   function'   warnings    on   MacOS   10.4.x,   but
+FT_GetFile_Mac_Name  in  ftmac.c  then  is changed  to  a  dummy
+function, and returns an `unimplemented' error.  For details see
+builds/mac/README.
+- SFNT cmap handling has been  improved, mainly to run much faster
+with CJK fonts.
+- A   new  function   `FT_Get_TrueType_Engine_Type   (declared  in
+`FT_MODULE_H')  is  provided  to  determine the  status  of  the
+TrueType   bytecode  interpreter   compiled  into   the  library
+(patented, unpatented, unimplemented).
+- Vertical metrics of glyphs are  synthesized if the font does not
+provide such information.  You can tell whether  the metrics are
+synthesized or not by checking the FT_FACE_FLAG_VERTICAL flag of
+the face.
+- The demo programs  `ftview' and  `ftstring' have been  rewritten
+for better readability.   `ftview' has a new switch `-p' to test
+FT_New_Memory_Face (instead of FT_New_Face).
+- FreeType now honours bit 1 in the `head' table of TrueType fonts
+(meaning `left sidebearing point at x=0').  This helps with some
+buggy fonts.
+- Rudimentary support for Adobe's new `SING Glyphlet' format.  See
+http://www.adobe.com/products/indesign/sing_gaiji.html
+for more information.
+- The `ftdump'  program from the `ft2demos' bundle  now shows some
+information about charmaps.  It  also supports a new switch `-v'
+to increase verbosity.
+- Better AFM support.  This includes track kerning support.
+======================================================================
+CHANGES BETWEEN 2.1.10 and 2.1.9
+I. IMPORTANT BUG FIXES
+- The size comparison for BDF and PCF files could fail sometimes.
+- Some  CFF files  were still not  loaded  correctly.   Patch from
+Derek Noonburg.
+- The stroker still had some serious bugs.
+- Boris  Letocha  fixed a  bug in  the  TrueType interpreter:  The
+NPUSHW instruction wasn't skipped correctly in IF clauses.  Some
+fonts like `Helvetica 75 Bold' failed.
+- Another  serious  bug  in  handling  TrueType hints  caused many
+distortions.  It has been introduced in version 2.1.8, and it is
+highly recommended to upgrade.
+- FreeType didn't properly parse empty Type 1 glyphs.
+- An unbound dynamic buffer growth was fixed in the PFR loader.
+- Several bugs have been fixed in the cache sub-system.
+- FreeType behaved incorrectly when resizing two distinct but very
+close character pixel sizes through `FT_Set_Char_Size' (Savannah
+bug #12263).
+- The auto-hinter didn't work properly for fonts without a Unicode
+charmap -- it even refused to load the glyphs.
+II. IMPORTANT CHANGES
+- Many fixes have been applied to drastically reduce the amount of
+heap   memory   used   by   FreeType,   especially   when  using
+memory-mapped font files  (which is the default on Unix  systems
+which support them).
+- The auto-hinter  has been replaced with a new module, called the
+`auto-fitter'.  It consumes  less memory  than its  predecessor,
+and it is  prepared to support non-latin scripts  better in next
+releases.
+- George Williams  contributed code to read  kerning data from PFM
+files.
+- FreeType   now   uses    the   TT_NAME_ID_PREFERRED_FAMILY   and
+TT_NAME_ID_PREFERRED_SUBFAMILY   strings   (if   available)  for
+setting  family  and  style in SFNT  fonts  (patch from Kornfeld
+Eliyahu Peter).
+- A  new  API `FT_Sfnt_Table_Info'  (in FT_TRUETYPE_TABLES_H)  has
+been added to retrieve name and size information of SFNT tables.
+- A new API `FT_OpenType_Validate' (in FT_OPENTYPE_VALIDATE_H) has
+been added to validate OpenType tables  (BASE, GDEF, GPOS, GSUB,
+JSTF).   After validation  it is  no longer  necessary to  check
+for errors in those tables while accessing them.
+Note that  this module might  be moved to another library in the
+future  to avoid  a tight  dependency between  FreeType and  the
+OpenType specification.
+- A new API in FT_BITMAP_H  (`FT_Bitmap_New', `FT_Bitmap_Convert',
+`FT_Bitmap_Copy',  `FT_Bitmap_Embolden',  `FT_Bitmap_Done')  has
+been added.   Its  use is  to convert an  FT_Bitmap structure in
+1bpp, 2bpp,  4bpp, or 8bpp  format into  another 8bpp FT_Bitmap,
+probably using a different pitch, and to further manipulate it.
+- A new  API `FT_Outline_Embolden'  (in FT_OUTLINE_H) gives  finer
+control how  outlines are embolded.
+- `FT_GlyphSlot_Embolden' (in FT_SYNTHESIS_H)  now handles bitmaps
+also (code contributed  by Chia I Wu).  Note that this  function
+is still experimental and may be replaced with a better API.
+- The method  how BDF and PCF  bitmap fonts  are accessed has been
+refined.   Formerly,   FT_Set_Pixel_Sizes  and  FT_Set_Char_Size
+were  synonyms in  FreeType's  BDF and PCF interface.  This  has
+changed now.  FT_Set_Pixel_Sizes  should be  used to  select the
+actual  font dimensions  (the `strike',  which is the sum of the
+`FONT_ASCENT'    and    `FONT_DESCENT'    properties),     while
+FT_Set_Char_Size  selects  the  `nominal' size  (the `PIXELSIZE'
+property).  In both functions, the width parameter is ignored.
+III. MISCELLANEOUS
+- The BDF driver  no longer converts  all returned bitmaps  with a
+depth of 2bpp or 4bpp to a depth of 8bpp.  The documentation has
+not  mentioned  this  explicitly,  but  implementors  might have
+relied on this after looking into the source files.
+- A new option `--ftversion' has been  added to freetype-config to
+return the FreeType version.
+- The  memory  debugger  has  been  updated   to  dump  allocation
+statistics on  all allocation  sources in the library.   This is
+useful to  spot greedy  allocations when  loading and processing
+fonts.
+- We removed a huge array of constant pointers to constant strings
+in the `psnames' module.   The problem was that  compilations in
+PIC mode (i.e.,  when generating a  Unix shared object/dll)  put
+the array  into the non-shared  writable section of  the library
+since absolute pointers are not relocatable by nature.
+This reduces the memory consumption by approximately 16KByte per
+process linked  to FreeType.   We now also store  the array in a
+compressed form (as a trie) which saves about 20KByte of code as
+well.
+- Kirill  Smelkov provided  patches to make  src/raster/ftraster.c
+compile stand-alone again.
+======================================================================
+CHANGES BETWEEN 2.1.9 and 2.1.8
+I. IMPORTANT BUG FIXES
+- The function  `FT_Get_CharMap_Index' was only declared,  without
+any  real  code.   For  consistency,  it  has  been  renamed  to
+`FT_Get_Charmap_Index'.   (This function is needed  to implement
+cmap caches.)
+- `FT_Outline_Get_BBox'  sometimes returned  incorrect values  for
+conic outlines (e.g., for TrueType fonts).
+- Handling of `bhed' table has been fixed.
+- The TrueType driver with enabled byte code interpreter sometimes
+returned artifacts due to incorrect rounding.  This bug has been
+introduced after version 2.1.4.
+- The BDF driver dropped the last glyph in the font.
+- The BDF driver now uses the DEFAULT_CHAR property (if available)
+to select a glyph shape for the undefined glyph.
+- The stroker failed for closed outlines and single points.
+II. IMPORTANT CHANGES
+- George  Williams   contributed  code  to   handle  Apple's  font
+distortion technology found in GX fonts (`avar', `cvar', `fvar',
+and `gvar' tables;  the Multiple Masters  API has been  slightly
+extended to cope with the new functionality).
+- The `FT_GlyphSlotRec' structure has been extended:  The elements
+`lsb_delta' and  `rsb_delta' give the difference  between hinted
+and  unhinted  left and right  side bearings  if autohinting  is
+active.  Using those values can improve the inter-letter spacing
+considerably.   See the documentation of  `FT_GlyphSlotRec'  and
+the `ftstring' demo program how to use it.
+- Loading TrueType and Type 1 fonts has been made much faster.
+- The stroker is  no longer experimental (but the  cache subsystem
+still is).
+III. MISCELLANEOUS
+- A new  documentation file  `formats.txt' describes various  font
+formats supported (and not supported) by FreeType.
+======================================================================
+CHANGES BETWEEN 2.1.8 and 2.1.7
+I. IMPORTANT BUG FIXES
+- The native  TrueType hinter contained some  bugs which prevented
+some fonts to be rendered correctly, most notably Legendum.otf.
+- The PostScript hinter now produces improved results.
+- The  linear advance  width  and height  values were  incorrectly
+rounded,  making  them virtually  unusable  if  not loaded  with
+FT_LOAD_LINEAR_DESIGN.
+- Indexing CID-keyed CFF fonts is  now working: The glyph index is
+correctly  treated as a  CID, similar  to FreeType's  CID driver
+module.  Note that CID CMap support is still missing.
+- The FT_FACE_FLAGS_GLYPH_NAMES flag is now  set correctly for all
+font formats.
+- Some subsetted Type 1  fonts weren't parsed correctly.  This bug
+has been introduced in 2.1.7.  In summary, the Type 1 parser has
+become more robust.
+- Non-decimal numbers weren't parsed correctly in PS fonts.
+- The WinFNT driver now correctly reports FT_ENCODING_NONE for all
+but one encoding.  Use  the new FT_WinFNT_ID_XXX values together
+with `FT_Get_WinFNT_Header' to get the WinFNT charset ID.
+- The descender metrics (face->size->metrics.descender) for WinFNT
+bitmap fonts had the wrong sign.
+- The (emulated) `seac' support for CFF fonts was broken.
+- The `flex' operator didn't work for CFF fonts.
+- PS glyphs  which  use  the   `hintmask'  operator  haven't  been
+rendered correctly in some cases.
+- Metrics for BDF and PCF bitmap font formats have been fixed.
+- Autohinting  is now  disabled for  glyphs  which  are vertically
+distorted  or mirrored  (using a  transformation matrix).   This
+fixes a bug which produced zero-height glyphs.
+- The   `freetype-config'   script   now  handles   --prefix   and
+--exec-prefix correctly; it also  returns the proper --rpath (or
+-R) value if FreeType has been built as a shared library.
+II. IMPORTANT CHANGES
+- Both  PCF  and BDF  drivers  now  handle  the SETWIDTH_NAME  and
+ADD_STYLE_NAME    properties.     Values    are   appended    to
+face->style_name; example: `Bold SemiCondensed'.
+- The PCF driver now handles bitmap  fonts compressed with the LZW
+algorithm (extension .pcf.Z, compressed with `compress').
+- A  new  API   function  `FT_Get_CMap_Language_ID'  (declared  in
+`tttables.h')  is  available  to   get  the  language  ID  of  a
+TrueType/SFNT cmap.
+- The hexadecimal format of  data after the `StartData' command in
+CID-keyed Type 1 fonts is now supported.  While this can't occur
+in  file-based   fonts,  it  can   happen  in  document-embedded
+resources of PostScript documents.
+- Embedded bitmaps in SFNT-based CFF fonts are now supported.
+- A simple  API is  now available  to control  FreeType's  tracing
+mechanism if compiled  with FT_DEBUG_LEVEL_TRACE.   See the file
+`ftdebug.h' for more details.
+- YAMATO Masatake contributed improved  handling of MacOS resource
+forks on non-MacOS platforms (for example, Linux can mount MacOS
+file systems).
+- Support for MacOS has been improved; there is now a new function
+`FT_New_Face_From_FSSpec'  similar to `FT_New_Face'  except that
+it accepts an FSSpec instead of a path.
+- The cache sub-system has been rewritten.
+- There is now support for deinstallation of faces.
+- A new  API function `FTC_Manager_RemoveFaceID'  has been added
+to  delete  all  `idle'  nodes  that  correspond  to  a  given
+FTC_FaceID.  All `locked' nodes  (i.e., those with a reference
+count > 0), will be modified to prevent them from appearing in
+further  lookups (they  will  be cleaned  normally when  their
+reference count reaches 0).
+- There  is  now  support  for point  scaling  (i.e.,  providing
+character sizes in points + dpis, instead of pixels).
+- Three abstract cache classes are now available:
+FTC_GCache:  Used to store  one glyph  item per  cache node,
+with the ability to group common attributes into
+`families'.      This    replaces     the    old
+FTC_GlyphCache class.
+FTC_ICache: Used to store one FT_Glyph per cache node.  This
+extends  FTC_GCache.  Family  definition, family
+comparison, and  glyph loading are  however left
+to sub-classes.
+FTC_SCache: Used to  store up to 16 small  bitmaps per cache
+node.    This    extends   FTC_GCache.    Family
+definition, family  comparison and glyph loading
+are however left to sub-classes.
+- The file `src/cache/ftcbasic.c' implements:
+FTC_ImageCache: Extends    FTC_ICache;   implements   family
+definitions and glyph loading similar to the
+old API.
+FTC_SBitCache: Extends    FTC_SCache,    implements   family
+definitions and glyph  loading similar to the
+old API
+Client  applications  should  be  able to  extend  FTC_GCache,
+FTC_ICache, or FTC_SCache much more easily (i.e., less code to
+write, and  less callbacks).  For example,  one could envision
+caches  that are  capable of  storing  transformed (obliqued),
+stroked,   emboldened,   or   colored   glyph   images.    Use
+`ftcbasic.c' as an example.
+- All public  APIs are now  in `include/freetype/ftcache.h', (to
+be    accessed   as    `FT_CACHE_H').     The   contents    of
+`include/freetype/cache/' is only  needed by applications that
+wish to implement their own caches.
+- There were some major performance improvements through the use
+of  various programming  tricks.   Cache hits  are  up to  70%
+faster than in the old code.
+- The  FTC_CMapCache has  been simplified.  Charmaps can only be
+accessed by  index right now.  There  is also a  new API named
+`FT_Charmap_GetIndex' for this purpose.
+- The  demo programs  have been  updated to  the new  code.  The
+previous versions will not work with the current one.
+- Using  an invalid face  index in FT_Open_Face and friends  now
+causes an error even if the font contains a single face only.
+III. MISCELLANEOUS
+- Wolfgang Domröse contributed support files for building FreeType
+on the Atari using the PureC compiler.  Note that the Atari is a
+16bit platform.
+- Vitaliy Pasternak contributed project files for VS.NET 2003.
+======================================================================
+CHANGES BETWEEN 2.1.7 and 2.1.6
+I. IMPORTANT BUG FIXES
+- Updated  to newest  libtool  version, fixing  build problems  on
+various platforms.
+- On  Unix  platforms,  `make  install' didn't  copy  the  correct
+`ftconfig.h' file.
+Note that version 2.1.7  contains the same library  C source code as
+version 2.1.6.
+======================================================================
+CHANGES BETWEEN 2.1.6 and 2.1.5
+I. IMPORTANT BUG FIXES
+- The PFR  font driver didn't  load kerning tables  correctly, and
+the functions in FT_PFR_H didn't work at all.
+- Type 1 font  files in  binary format  (PFB) with  an end-of-file
+indicator weren't accepted by the FreeType engine.
+- Fonts which contain /PaintType  and /StrokeWidth no longer cause
+a segfault.  This bug has been introduced in version 2.1.5.
+- Fonts  loaded  with   FT_LOAD_RENDER  no  longer  cause  strange
+results.  This bug has been introduced in version 2.1.5.
+- Some  Windows   (bitmap)  FNT/FON  files   couldn't  be  handled
+correctly.
+II. IMPORTANT CHANGES
+- The internal  module API  has been heavily  changed in  favor of
+massive simplifications within the font engine.  This also means
+that authors of third-party modules must adapt their code to the
+new scheme.
+NOTE:  THE NEW SCHEME IS NOT COMPLETED YET.  PLEASE WAIT UNTIL A
+FINAL ANNOUNCEMENT!
+- The PostScript  parser has been enhanced to  handle comments and
+strings   correctly.   Additionally,   more  syntax   forms  are
+recognized.
+- Added the  optional unpatented hinting system  for TrueType.  It
+allows  typefaces which  need hinting  to produce  correct glyph
+forms (e.g., Chinese typefaces  from Dynalab) to work acceptably
+without infringing Apple patents.   This system is compiled only
+if  TT_CONFIG_OPTION_COMPILE_UNPATENTED_HINTING  is  defined  in
+ftoption.h (activated by default).
+III. MISCELLANEOUS
+- There  is now  a guard  in the  public header  files  to protect
+against inclusion of freetype.h from FreeType 1.
+- Direct inclusion of freetype.h  and other public header files no
+longer works.  You have to use the documented scheme
+#include <ft2build.h>
+#include FT_FREETYPE_H
+to load freetype.h with  a symbolic name.  This protects against
+renaming  of public  header  files (which  shouldn't happen  but
+actually  has, avoiding two  public header  files with  the same
+name).
+======================================================================
+CHANGES BETWEEN 2.1.5 and 2.1.4
+I. IMPORTANT BUG FIXES
+- Parsing the /CIDFontName field  now removes the leading slash to
+be in sync with other font drivers.
+- gzip support was buggy.  Some fonts could not be read.
+- Fonts which  have nested subglyphs  more than one level  deep no
+longer cause a segfault.
+- Creation of synthetic  cmaps for fonts in CFF  format was broken
+partially.
+- Numeric  font  dictionary entries  for  synthetic  fonts are  no
+longer overwritten.
+- The font matrix  wasn't applied to the advance  width for Type1,
+CID, and  CFF fonts.  This caused problems  when loading certain
+synthetic Type 1 fonts like `Helvetica Narrow'.
+- The test  for the charset registry  in BDF and PCF  fonts is now
+case-insensitive.
+- FT_Vector_Rotate  sometimes  returned   strange  values  due  to
+rounding errors.
+- The  PCF  driver  now  returns  the  correct  number  of  glyphs
+(including an artificial `notdef' glyph at index 0).
+- FreeType now  supports buggy CMaps  which are contained  in many
+CJK fonts from Dynalab.
+- Opening  an invalid  font  on a  Mac  caused a  segfault due  to
+double-freeing memory.
+- BDF  fonts  with  more   than  32768  glyphs  weren't  supported
+properly.
+II. IMPORTANT CHANGES
+- Accessing bitmap font formats has been synchronized.  To do that
+the FT_Bitmap_Size  structure has  been extended to  contain new
+fields `size', `x_ppem', and `y_ppem'.
+- The FNT driver now returns multiple faces, not multiple strikes.
+- The `psnames'  module has been  updated to the Adobe  Glyph List
+version 2.0.
+- The `psnames' module now understands `uXXXX[X[X]]' glyph names.
+- The algorithm for guessing the font style has been improved.
+- For fonts in SFNT format, root->height is no longer increased if
+the line gap  is zero.  There exist fonts  (containing e.g. form
+drawing  characters) which  intentionally have  a zero  line gap
+value.
+- ft_glyph_bbox_xxx  flags   are  now  deprecated   in  favour  of
+FT_GLYPH_BBOX_XXX.
+- ft_module_xxx   flags   are   now   deprecated  in   favour   of
+FT_MODULE_XXX.
+- FT_ENCODING_MS_{SJIS,GB2312,BIG5,WANSUNG,JOHAB}      are     now
+deprecated               in               favour              of
+FT_ENCODING_{SJIS,GB2312,GIB5,WANSONG,JOHAB}  -- those encodings
+are not specific to Microsoft.
+III. MISCELLANEOUS
+- The  autohinter  has been  further  improved;  for example,  `m'
+glyphs now retain its vertical symmetry.
+- Partial support of Mac fonts on non-Mac platforms.
+- `make   refdoc'   (after   first   `make')   builds   the   HTML
+documentation.  You need Python for this.
+- The make build system should  now work more reliably on DOS-like
+platforms.
+- Support for  EMX gcc  and Watson C/C++  compilers on  MS-DOS has
+been added.
+- Better VMS build support.
+- Support for the pkg-config  package by providing a `freetype.pc'
+file.
+- New configure option --with-old-mac-fonts for Darwin.
+- Some source files have been  renamed (mainly to fit into the 8.3
+naming scheme).
+======================================================================
+CHANGES BETWEEN 2.1.4 and 2.1.3
+I. IMPORTANT BUG FIXES
+- Updated  to newest  libtool  version, fixing  build problems  on
+various platforms.
+- A fix  in the Gzip stream  reader: It couldn't  read certain .gz
+files properly due to a  small typo.  In certain cases, FreeType
+could  also loop  endlessly  when trying  to  load tiny  gzipped
+files.
+- The configure script now tries  to use the system-wide zlib when
+it  finds one  (instead of  the  copy found  in src/gzip).   And
+`freetype-config' has  been updated to return  relevant flags in
+this case when invoked with `--libs' (e.g. `-lzlib').
+- Certain fonts couldn't be loaded  by 2.1.3 because they lacked a
+Unicode   charmap  (e.g.   SYMBOL.TTF).    FreeType  erroneously
+rejected them.
+- The CFF loader was modified to accept fonts which only contain a
+subset of  their reference charset.  This  prevented the correct
+use of PDF-embedded fonts.
+- The logic to detect Unicode charmaps has been modified.  This is
+required to  support fonts which include both  16-bit and 32-bit
+charmaps (like very  recent asian ones) using the  new 10 and 12
+SFNT formats.
+- The TrueType  loader now limits  the depth of  composite glyphs.
+This is necessary to prevent broken fonts to break the engine by
+blowing the stack with recursive glyph definitions.
+- The CMap cache is now  capable of managing UCS-4 character codes
+that   are   mapped   through   extended  charmaps   in   recent
+TrueType/OpenType fonts.
+- The   cache  sub-system   now  properly   manages  out-of-memory
+conditions  instead of  blindly  reporting them  to the  caller.
+This means that it will try to empty the cache before restarting
+its allocations to see if that can help.
+- The  PFR driver  didn't return  the list  of  available embedded
+bitmaps properly.
+- There was  a nasty  memory leak when  using embedded  bitmaps in
+certain font formats.
+II. IMPORTANT CHANGES
+- David Chester  contributed some enhancements  to the auto-hinter
+that  significantly increase  the  quality of  its output.   The
+Postscript hinter was also improved in several ways.
+- The FT_RENDER_MODE_LIGHT render mode was implemented.
+- A new  API function called `FT_Get_BDF_Property'  has been added
+to FT_BDF_H to  retrieve BDF properties from BDF  _and_ PCF font
+files.   THIS  IS  STILL  EXPERIMENTAL,  since  it  hasn't  been
+properly tested yet.
+- A Windows FNT specific API has been added, mostly to access font
+headers.  This is used by Wine.
+- TrueType tables  without an `hmtx' table are  now tolerated when
+an  incremental interface  is  used.  This  happens for  certain
+Type42 fonts passed from Ghostscript to FreeType.
+- The PFR font driver is  now capable of returning the font family
+and style  names when  they are available  (instead of  the sole
+`FontID').   This  is  performed  by parsing  an  *undocumented*
+portion of the font file!
+III. MISCELLANEOUS
+- The path stroker in FT_STROKER_H has entered beta stage.  It now
+works very  well, but  its interface might  change a bit  in the
+future.  More on this in later releases.
+- The documentation for  FT_Size_Metrics didn't appear properly in
+the API reference.
+- The file docs/VERSION.DLL has been updated to explain versioning
+with FreeType  (i.e., comparing release/libtool/so  numbers, and
+how to use them in autoconf scripts).
+- The  installation  documentation  has been  seriously  revamped.
+Everything is now in the `docs' directory.
+======================================================================
+CHANGES BETWEEN 2.1.3 and 2.1.2
+I. IMPORTANT BUG FIXES
+- FT_Vector_Transform  had  been  incorrectly modified  in  2.1.2,
+resulting  in  incorrect   transformations  being  applied  (for
+example, rotations were processed in opposite angles).
+- The format  8 and 12 TrueType charmap  enumeration routines have
+been fixed (FT_Get_Next_Char returned invalid values).
+- The  PFR font driver  returned incorrect  advance widths  if the
+outline  and metrics resolution  defined in  the font  file were
+different.
+- FT_Glyph_To_Bitmap now returns  successfully when called with an
+FT_BitmapGlyph argument (it previously returned an error).
+- A bug  in the Type 1  loader that prevented  valid font bounding
+boxes to be loaded from multiple master fonts.
+- The SFNT  validation code has been rewritten.   FreeType can now
+load `broken'  fonts that were  usable on Windows, but  not with
+previous versions of the library.
+- The computation of bearings in the BDF driver has been fixed.
+- The Postscript hinter crashed when trying to hint certain glyphs
+(more precisely,  when trying to  apply hints to an  empty glyph
+outline).
+- The  TrueType glyph  loader  now supports  composites in  `Apple
+format'  (they differ slightly  from Microsoft/OpenType  ones in
+the way transformation offsets are computed).
+- FreeType was  very slow at opening certain  asian CID/CFF fonts,
+due to  fixed increment  in dynamic array  re-allocations.  This
+has  been changed  to  exponential behaviour  to get  acceptable
+performance.
+II. IMPORTANT CHANGES
+- The PCF driver now supports gzip-compressed font files natively.
+This means that  you will be able to use  all these bitmap fonts
+that  come with  XFree86 with  FreeType (and  libXft/libXft2, by
+extension).
+- The  automatic and  postscript hinters  have both  been updated.
+This  results in  a relatively  important increase  of rendering
+quality since  many nasty defaults have been suppressed.  Please
+visit the web page:
+http://www.freetype.org/hinting/smooth-hinting.html
+for additional details on this topic.
+- The `load_flags' parameter of `FT_Load_Glyph' is now an FT_Int32
+(instead  of just  being  an FT_Int).   This  breaks source  and
+binary  compatibility for  16bit systems  only,  while retaining
+both of them for 32 and 64 bit ones.
+Some new flags have been added consequently:
+FT_LOAD_NO_AUTOHINT   :: Disable the use of the auto-hinter
+(but not native format hinters).
+FT_LOAD_TARGET_NORMAL :: Hint and render for normal
+anti-aliased displays.
+FT_LOAD_TARGET_MONO   :: Hint and render for 1-bit displays.
+FT_LOAD_TARGET_LCD    :: Hint and render for horizontal RGB or
+BGR sub-pixel displays (like LCD
+screens).  THIS IS STILL
+EXPERIMENTAL!
+FT_LOAD_TARGET_LCD_V  :: Same as FT_LOAD_TARGET_LCD, for
+vertical sub-pixel displays (like
+rotated LCD screens).  THIS IS STILL
+EXPERIMENTAL!
+FT_LOAD_MONOCHROME   is  still   supported,  but   only  affects
+rendering, not the hinting.
+Note that the `ftview'  demo program available in the `ft2demos'
+package  has been  updated to  support LCD-optimized  display on
+non-paletted displays (under Win32 and X11).
+- The  PFR  driver  now  supports embedded  bitmaps  (all  formats
+supported), and returns correct kerning metrics for all glyphs.
+- The TrueType charmap loader  now supports certain `broken' fonts
+that load under Windows without problems.
+- The cache API has been slightly modified (it's still a beta!):
+- The type  FTC_ImageDesc has been removed; it  is now replaced
+by  FTC_ImageTypeRec.   Note that  one  of  its  fields is  a
+`load_flag' parameter for FT_Load_Glyph.
+- The  field  `num_grays' of  FT_SBitRec  has  been changed  to
+`max_grays'  in  order to  fit  within  a  single byte.   Its
+maximum value is thus 255 (instead of 256 as previously).
+III. MISCELLANEOUS
+- Added support  for the  DESTDIR variable during  `make install'.
+This simplifies packaging of FreeType.
+- Included modified  copies of the  ZLib sources in  `src/gzip' in
+order to support  gzip-compressed PCF fonts.  We do  not use the
+system-provided  zlib  for  now,   though  this  is  a  probable
+enhancement for future releases.
+- The DocMaker tool used to generate the on-line API reference has
+been   completely    rewritten.    It   is    now   located   in
+`src/tools/docmaker/docmaker.py'.  Features:
+- better cross-referenced output
+- more polished output
+- uses Python regular expressions  (though it didn't speed the
+program)
+- much  more  modular structure,  which  allows for  different
+`backends'  in  order to  generate  HTML,  XML, or  whatever
+format.
+One can regenerate the API reference by calling:
+python src/tools/docmaker/docmaker.py \
+--prefix=ft2 \
+--title=FreeType-2.1.3 \
+--output=<outputdirectory>
+include/freetype/*.h \
+include/freetype/config/*.h \
+include/freetype/cache/*.h
+- A new, experimental, support for incremental font loading (i.e.,
+loading  of fonts  where the  glyphs are  not in  the  font file
+itself, but provided by an external component, like a Postscript
+interpreter) has been added by Graham Asher.  This is still work
+in progress, however.
+- A new,  EXPERIMENTAL, path stroker  has been added.   It doesn't
+suffer  from  severe  rounding  errors  and  treat  bezier  arcs
+directly.  Still work in progress (i.e. not part of the official
+API).   See  the file  <freetype/ftstroker.h>  for  some of  the
+details.
+- The massive  re-formatting of sources and  internal re-design is
+still under-way.  Many  internal functions, constants, and types
+have been renamed.
+======================================================================
+CHANGES BETWEEN 2.1.2 and 2.1.1
+I. IMPORTANT BUG FIXES
+- Many  font drivers didn't  select a  Unicode charmap  by default
+when a new face  was opened (with the FT_CONFIG_OPTION_USE_CMAPS
+options enabled),  causing many applications  to not be  able to
+display text correctly with the 2.1.x releases.
+- The  PFR driver had  a bug  in its  composite loading  code that
+produces incorrectly placed accents with many fonts.
+- The Type42 driver crashed sometimes due to a nasty bug.
+- The Type 1 custom encoding  charmap didn't handle the case where
+the first glyph index wasn't 0.
+- A  serious  typo  in  the  TrueType  composite  loader  produced
+incorrectly placed  glyphs in fonts  like `Wingdings' and  a few
+others.
+II. MISCELLANEOUS
+- The Win32  Visual C++ project  file has been updated  to include
+the PFR driver as well.
+- `freetype.m4' is  now installed by default by  `make install' on
+Unix systems.
+- The function  FT_Get_PS_Font_Info now works with  CID and Type42
+fonts as well.
+======================================================================
+CHANGES BETWEEN 2.1.1 and 2.1.0
+I. IMPORTANT BUG FIXES
+- The  `version_info'  returned   by  `freetype-config'  in  2.1.0
+returned an invalid value.  It now returns 9:1:3 (2.0.9 returned
+9:0:3).
+- Version 2.1.0  couldn't be linked against  applications on Win32
+and  Amiga systems  due  to  a new  debug  function that  wasn't
+properly   propagated  to   the  system-specific   directory  in
+`builds'.
+- Various MacOS and Mac OS X specific fixes.
+- Fixed  a bug in  the TrueType  charmap validation  routines that
+made version  2.1.0 too restrictive  -- many popular  fonts have
+been rejected.
+- There was  still a very small difference  between the monochrome
+glyph bitmaps produced by FreeType 1.x and FreeType 2.x with the
+bytecode  interpreter enabled.   This was  caused by  an invalid
+flag setting in the TrueType glyph loader, making the rasterizer
+change  its  drop-out   control  mode.   Now  the results should
+_really_ be completely identical.
+- The TrueType name table loader has been improved to support many
+popular  though buggy Asian  fonts.  It  now ignores  empty name
+entries,  invalid  pointer offsets  and  a  few other  incorrect
+subtleties.  Moreover,  name strings  are now loaded  on demand,
+which reduces the memory load  of many faces (e.g. the ARIAL.TTF
+font file contains a 10kByte name table with 70 names).
+- Fixed a bug in the Postscript hinter that prevented family blues
+substitution to happen correctly.
+II. NEW FEATURES
+- Three new font drivers in this release:
+* A  BDF  font driver,  contributed  by  Franco Zappa  Nardelli,
+heavily  modified   by  Werner  Lemberg.    It  also  supports
+anti-aliased bitmaps (using a slightly extended BDF format).
+* A Type42  font driver, contributed by Roberto  Alameda.  It is
+still experimental but seems to work relatively well.
+* A PFR  font driver, contributed  by David Turner  himself.  It
+doesn't  support PFR  hinting --  note that  BitStream  has at
+least two patents on this format!
+III. MISCELLANEOUS
+- The  cache  sub-system has  been  optimized  in important  ways.
+Cache hits are now significantly faster.  For example, using the
+CMap cache is about  twice faster than calling FT_Get_Char_Index
+on most platforms.  Similarly, using an SBit cache is about five
+times faster  than loading the  bitmaps from a bitmap  file, and
+300 to  500 times  faster than generating  them from  a scalable
+format.
+Note that  you should recompile  your sources if you  designed a
+custom  cache  class for  the  FT2  Cache  subsystem, since  the
+changes performed are source, but not binary, compatible.
+======================================================================
+CHANGES BETWEEN 2.1.0 and 2.0.9
+I. IMPORTANT BUG FIXES
+- The  TrueType bytecode  interpreter  has been  fixed to  produce
+_exactly_ the same output as FreeType 1.x.  Previous differences
+were due  to slightly distinct  fixed-point computation routines
+used to perform dot products and vector length measurements.
+It seems  that native TrueType hinting  is _extremely_ sensitive
+to  rounding errors.  The  required vector  computation routines
+have been optimized and placed within the `ttinterp.c' file.
+- Fixed the parsing of accelerator tables in the PCF font driver.
+- Fixed the Type1 glyph loader  routine used to compute the font's
+maximum advance width.
+II. NEW FEATURES
+- The `configure' script used on Unix systems has been modified to
+check  that  GNU  Make  is  being used  to  build  the  library.
+Otherwise,  it  will display  a  message  proposing  to use  the
+GNUMAKE environment variable to name it.
+The Unix-specific file README.UNX has been modified accordingly.
+III. MISCELLANEOUS
+- The  FreeType  License in  `docs/FTL.TXT'  has  been updated  to
+include  a  proposed preferred  disclaimer.   If  you are  using
+FreeType in your products, you are encouraged (but not mandated)
+to use the following text in your documentation:
+"""
+Portions of this software are copyright © 1996-2002 The
+FreeType Project (www.freetype.org).  All rights reserved.
+"""
+- The default size of the render pool has been reduced to 16kByte.
+This  shouldn't result  in any  noticeable  performance penalty,
+unless you are  using the engine as-is to  render very large and
+complex glyphs.
+- The  FreeType 2  redesign has  begun.  More  information  can be
+found at this URL:
+http://www.freetype.org/freetype2/redesign.html
+The following  internal changes  have been performed  within the
+sources of this release:
+- Many   internal  types   have  been   renamed   to  increase
+consistency.   The  following  should  be true,  except  for
+public types:
+* All structure  types have a name ending  in `Rec' (short
+for `record').
+* A  pointer-to-structure type  has the  same name  as the
+structure, _without_ the `Rec' suffix.
+Example:
+typedef struct FooRec_
+{
+...
+} FooRec, *Foo;
+- Many   internal  macros  have   been  renamed   to  increase
+consistency.  The following should be true:
+* All  macros  have a  name  beginning  with `FT_'.   This
+required a few changes like
+ALLOC   => FT_ALLOC
+FREE    => FT_FREE
+REALLOC => FT_REALLOC
+* All  macros are completely  UPPERCASE.  This  required a
+few changes like:
+READ_Short  => FT_READ_SHORT
+NEXT_Short  => FT_NEXT_SHORT
+GET_ULongLE => FT_GET_ULONG_LE
+MEM_Set     => FT_MEM_SET
+MEM_Copy    => FT_MEM_COPY
+etc.
+* Whenever   possible,   all   macro  names   follow   the
+FT_<OBJECT>_<METHOD> pattern.  For example
+ACCESS_Frame   => FT_FRAME_ENTER
+FORGET_Frame   => FT_FRAME_EXIT
+EXTRACT_Frame  => FT_FRAME_EXTRACT
+RELEASE_Frame  => FT_FRAME_RELEASE
+FILE_Pos       => FT_STREAM_POS
+FILE_Seek      => FT_STREAM_SEEK
+FILE_Read      => FT_STREAM_READ
+FILE_ReadAt    => FT_STREAM_READ_AT
+READ_Fields    => FT_STREAM_READ_FIELDS
+- Many  internal functions  have  been renamed  to follow  the
+FT_<Object>_<Method> pattern.  For example:
+FT_Seek_Stream       => FT_Stream_Seek
+FT_Read_Stream_At    => FT_Stream_ReadAt
+FT_Done_Stream       => FT_Stream_Close
+FT_New_Stream        => FT_Stream_Open
+FT_New_Memory_Stream => FT_Stream_OpenMemory
+FT_Extract_Frame     => FT_Stream_ExtractFrame
+Note that method names do not contain `_'.
+- The FT_ALLOC_ARRAY  and FT_REALLOC_ARRAY have  been replaced
+with  FT_NEW_ARRAY and  FT_RENEW_ARRAY which  do not  take a
+type  as the  fourth argument.   Instead, the  array element
+type  size is computed  automatically from  the type  of the
+target pointer used.
+- A  new object  class, FT_CMap,  has been  introduced.  These
+internal  objects are  used to  model character  maps.  This
+eases  the support  of additional  charmap types  within the
+engine.
+- A new  configuration file named `ftstdlib.h'  has been added
+to `include/freetype/config'.  It  is used to define aliases
+for  _every_ routine  of the  ISO  C library  that the  font
+engine   uses.    Each    aliases   has   a   `ft_'   prefix
+(e.g. `ft_strlen' is an alias for `strlen').
+This is  used to  ease the porting  of FreeType 2  to exotic
+runtime environments where the ISO C Library isn't available
+(e.g.  XFree86 extension modules).
+More details are available in the `ChangeLog' file.
+======================================================================
+CHANGES BETWEEN 2.0.9 and 2.0.8
+I. IMPORTANT BUG FIXES
+- Certain fonts like `foxjump.ttf' contain broken name tables with
+invalid entries and wild offsets.  This caused FreeType to crash
+when trying to load them.
+The  SFNT `name'  table  loader has  been  fixed to  be able  to
+support these strange fonts.
+Moreover, the code  in charge of processing this  table has been
+changed  to always favour  Windows-formatted entries  over other
+ones.  Hence,  a font that works  on Windows but not  on the Mac
+will  load cleanly in  FreeType and  report accurate  values for
+Family & PostScript names.
+- The CID font driver has been fixed.  It unfortunately returned a
+Postscript   Font   name   with   a   leading   slash,   as   in
+`/MunhwaGothic-Regular'.
+- FreeType  2 should now  compile fine  on AIX  4.3.3 as  a shared
+library.
+- A  bug  in the  Postscript  hinter  has  been found  and  fixed,
+removing un-even stem widths at small pixel sizes (like 14-17).
+This  improves the  quality of  a certain  number  of Postscript
+fonts.
+II. NEW FEATURES
+- A  new function  named  `FT_Library_Version' has  been added  to
+return  the current  library's major,  minor, and  patch version
+numbers.   This is  important since  the  macros FREETYPE_MAJOR,
+FREETYPE_MINOR,  and  FREETYPE_PATCH  cannot  be used  when  the
+library is dynamically linked by a program.
+- Two   new  APIs   have  been   added:   `FT_Get_First_Char'  and
+`FT_Get_Next_Char'.
+Together,  these can  be used  to iterate  efficiently  over the
+currently  selected  charmap of  a  given  face.   Read the  API
+reference for more details.
+III. MISCELLANEOUS
+- The FreeType sources are  under heavy internal re-factoring.  As
+a consequence,  we have created  a branch named `STABLE'  on the
+CVS to hold all future releases/fixes in the 2.0.x family.
+The  HEAD  branch  now  contains  the  re-factored  sources  and
+shouldn't  be used for  testing or  packaging new  releases.  In
+case you  would like  to access the  2.0.9 sources from  our CVS
+repository, use the tag `VER-2-0-9'.
+======================================================================
+CHANGES BETWEEN 2.0.8 and 2.0.7
+I. IMPORTANT BUG FIXES
+- There was  a small but  nasty bug in  `freetype-config.in' which
+caused the `freetype-config' script to fail on Unix.
+This didn't prevent the installation  of the library or even its
+execution, but caused problems  when trying to compile many Unix
+packages that depend on it.
+- Some TrueType or OpenType fonts embedded in PDF documents do not
+have  a  'cmap',  'post'  and  'name'  as  is  required  by  the
+specification.  FreeType no longer refuses to load such fonts.
+- Various fixes to the PCF font driver.
+======================================================================
+CHANGES BETWEEN 2.0.7 and 2.0.6
+I. IMPORTANT BUG FIXES
+- Fixed  two  bugs in  the  Type 1  font  driver.   The first  one
+resulted in a memory leak in subtle cases.  The other one caused
+FreeType to crash when  trying to load `.gsf' files (Ghostscript
+so-called Postscript fonts).
+(This  made _many_  KDE applications  crash on  certain systems.
+FreeType _is_ becoming a critical system component on Linux :-)
+- Fixed a memory leak in the CFF font driver.
+- Fixed a memory leak in the PCF font driver.
+- Fixed       the        Visual       C++       project       file
+`builds/win32/visualc/freetype.dsp' since  it didn't include the
+Postscript hinter component, causing errors at build time.
+- Fixed a  small rendering bug  in the anti-aliased  renderer that
+only  occurred when  trying to  draw  thin (less  than 1  pixel)
+strokes.
+- Fixed  `builds/unix/freetype2.a4' which  is used  to  generate a
+valid `freetype2.m4' for use with autoconf.
+- Fixed the OpenVMS Makefiles.
+II. MISCELLANEOUS
+- Added  `configure'  and   `install'  scripts  to  the  top-level
+directory.  A GNU-style installation is thus now easily possible
+with
+./configure  <options>
+make
+make install
+======================================================================
+CHANGES BETWEEN 2.0.6 and 2.0.5
+I. IMPORTANT BUG FIXES
+- It wasn't possible to load embedded bitmaps when the auto-hinter
+was used.  This is now fixed.
+- The TrueType  font driver  didn't load some  composites properly
+(the  sub-glyphs  were  slightly  shifted,  and  this  was  only
+noticeable when using monochrome rendering).
+- Various  fixes  to the  auto-hinter.   They  merely improve  the
+output of sans-serif fonts.   Note that there are still problems
+with serifed fonts and composites (accented characters).
+- All scalable  font drivers erroneously  returned un-fitted glyph
+advances when hinting was  requested.  This created problems for
+a number  of layout applications.  This  is a very  old bug that
+got  undetected mainly  because most  test/demo  program perform
+rounding explicitly or implicitly (through the cache).
+- `FT_Glyph_To_Bitmap' did erroneously  modify the source glyph in
+certain cases.
+- `glnames.py'  still contained  a bug  that made  FreeType return
+invalid names for certain glyphs.
+- The  library crashed  when  loading certain  Type  1 fonts  like
+`sadn.pfb'  (`Stalingrad  Normal'),   which  appear  to  contain
+pathetic font info dictionaries.
+- The TrueType glyph  loader is now much more  paranoid and checks
+everything when loading a given glyph image.  This was necessary
+to avoid problems (crashes and/or memory overwrites) with broken
+fonts that came from a really buggy automatic font converter.
+II. IMPORTANT UPDATES AND NEW FEATURES
+- Important updates to the Mac-specific parts of the library.
+- The caching sub-system has  been completely re-designed, and its
+API has  evolved (the  old one is  still supported  for backward
+compatibility).
+The documentation for it is  not yet completed, sorry.  For now,
+you are encouraged to continue  using the old API.  However, the
+ftview  demo program in  the ft2demos  package has  already been
+updated to use the new caching functions.
+- A new charmap cache is provided too.  See `FTC_CMapCache'.  This
+is useful to perform  character code -> glyph index translations
+quickly, without the need for an opened FT_Face.
+- A NEW POSTSCRIPT HINTER module  has been added to support native
+hints in  the following  formats: PostScript Type  1, PostScript
+CID, and CFF/CEF.
+Please test!  Note that  the auto-hinter produces better results
+for a number of  badly-hinted fonts (mostly auto-generated ones)
+though.
+- A memory debugger is now  part of the standard FreeType sources.
+To      enable      it,      define      FT_DEBUG_MEMORY      in
+<freetype/config/ftoption.h>, and recompile the library.
+Additionally, define  the _environment_ variable FT_DEBUG_MEMORY
+and run any program using FreeType.  When the library is exited,
+a  summary  of memory  footprints  and  possible  leaks will  be
+displayed.
+This works transparently with  _any_ program that uses FreeType.
+However, you  will need a lot  of memory to  use this (allocated
+blocks are never  released to the heap to  detect double deletes
+easily).
+III. MISCELLANEOUS
+- We  are  aware  of  subtle  differences between  the  output  of
+FreeType  versions   1  and  2  when  it   comes  to  monochrome
+TrueType-hinted glyphs.   These are  most probably due  to small
+differences in the monochrome rasterizers and will be worked out
+in an upcoming release.
+- We have decided to fork the sources in a `stable' branch, and an
+`unstable' one, since FreeType  is becoming a critical component
+of many Unix systems.
+The next  bug-fix releases of  the library will be  named 2.0.7,
+2.0.8, etc.,  while the `2.1'  branch will contain a  version of
+the sources where we will start major reworking of the library's
+internals, in order to produce FreeType 2.2.0 (or even 3.0) in a
+more distant future.
+We  also hope  that this  scheme will  allow much  more frequent
+releases than in the past.
+======================================================================
+CHANGES BETWEEN 2.0.5 and 2.0.4
+NOTE THAT 2.0.5 DOES NOT CONTAIN THE POSTSCRIPT HINTER.  THIS MODULE
+WILL BE PART OF THE NEXT RELEASE (EITHER 2.0.6 or 2.1)
+- Fixed a bug that made  certain glyphs, like `Cacute', `cacute' and
+`lslash'  unavailable from Unicode  charmaps of  Postscript fonts.
+This prevented the correct display of Polish text, for example.
+- The kerning table of Type 1 fonts was loaded by FreeType, when its
+AFM    file    was    attached    to    its    face,    but    the
+FT_FACE_FLAG_HAS_KERNING   bit  flags   was  not   set  correctly,
+preventing FT_Get_Kerning to return meaningful values.
+- Improved  SFNT (TrueType  & OpenType)  charmap  support.  Slightly
+better performance, as well as support for the new formats defined
+by the OpenType 1.3 specification (8, 10, and 12)
+- Fixed a  serious typo in `src/base/ftcalc.c'  which caused invalid
+computations in certain rare cases, producing ugly artefacts.
+- The  size  of the  EM  square is  computed  with  a more  accurate
+algorithm for Postscript fonts.   The old one caused slight errors
+with embedded fonts found in PDF documents.
+- Fixed  a  bug in  the  cache  manager  that prevented  normal  LRU
+behaviour  within the cache  manager, causing  unnecessary reloads
+(for FT_Face and FT_Size objects only).
+- Added  a new  function named  `FT_Get_Name_Index' to  retrieve the
+glyph index of a given glyph name, when found in a face.
+- Added  a new function  named `FT_Get_Postscript_Name'  to retrieve
+the `unique' Postscript font name of a given face.
+- Added   a   new   public   header  size   named   FT_SIZES_H   (or
+<freetype/ftsizes.h>) providing  new FT_Size-management functions:
+FT_New_Size, FT_Activate_Size, FT_Done_Size.
+- Fixed a  reallocation bug that  generated a dangling  pointer (and
+possibly    memory    leaks)    with    Postscript    fonts    (in
+src/psaux/psobjs.c).
+- Many fixes for 16-bit correctness.
+- Removed many pedantic compiler warnings from the sources.
+- Added an Amiga build directory in `builds/amiga'.
+======================================================================
+CHANGES BETWEEN 2.0.4 and 2.0.3
+- Fixed a rather annoying bug that was introduced in 2.0.3.  Namely,
+the font  transformation set through  FT_Set_Transform was applied
+twice to auto-hinted glyphs, resulting in incorrectly rotated text
+output.
+- Fixed _many_  compiler warnings.   FT2 should now  compile cleanly
+with Visual  C++'s most pedantic warning level  (/W4).  It already
+compiled fine with GCC and a few other compilers.
+- Fixed a bug  that prevented the linear advance  width of composite
+TrueType glyphs to be correctly returned.
+- Fixed    the    Visual    C++    project    files    located    in
+`builds/win32/visualc' (previous versions  used older names of the
+library).
+- Many  32-bit constants  have an  `L' appended  to their  value, in
+order to improve the 16-bitness  of the code.  Someone is actually
+trying to use FT2 on an Atari ST machine!
+- Updated  the  `builds/detect.mk' file  in  order to  automatically
+build FT2  on AIX systems.   AIX uses `/usr/sbin/init'  instead of
+`/sbin/init' and wasn't previously  detected as a Unix platform by
+the FreeType build system.
+- Updated  the  Unix-specific  portions  of the  build  system  (new
+libtool version, etc.).
+- The  SFNT kerning  loader now  ensures  that the  table is  sorted
+(since some problem fonts do not meet this requirement).
+=======================================================================
+CHANGES BETWEEN 2.0.3 and 2.0.2
+I. CHANGES TO THE MODULES / FONT DRIVERS
+- THE  AUTO-HINTER HAS  BEEN SLIGHTLY  IMPROVED, in  order  to fix
+several annoying artefacts, mainly:
+- Blue  zone alignment  of  horizontal stems  wasn't performed
+correctly, resulting in artefacts  like the `d' being placed
+one pixel below the `b' in some fonts like Time New Roman.
+- Overshoot thresholding  wasn't performed correctly, creating
+unpleasant artefacts at large character pixel sizes.
+- Composite glyph loading has  been simplified.  This gets rid
+of  various artefacts  where the  components of  a composite
+glyphs were not correctly spaced.
+These are  the last changes to the  current auto-hinting module.
+A new  hinting sub-system is currently  in the work  in order to
+support native hints  in Type 1 / CFF /  OpenType fonts, as well
+as globally improve rendering.
+- The  PCF  driver has  been  fixed.   It  reported invalid  glyph
+dimensions for the fonts available on Solaris.
+- The Type  1, CID and CFF  drivers have been modified  to fix the
+computation of the EM size.
+- The Type 1  driver has been fixed to avoid  a dangerous bug that
+crashed the library with non-conforming fonts (i.e. ones that do
+not place the .notdef glyph at position 0).
+- The TrueType  driver had a  rather subtle bug  (dangling pointer
+when loading  composite glyphs) that could crash  the library in
+rare occasions!
+II. HIGH-LEVEL API CHANGES
+- The error  code enumeration values have been  changed.  An error
+value  is decomposed  in  a  generic error  code,  and a  module
+number.  see <freetype/fterrors.h> for details.
+- A   new  public   header   file  has   been  introduced,   named
+FT_TRIGONOMETRY_H     (include/freetype/fttrig.h),     providing
+trigonometric functions to  compute sines, cosines, arctangents,
+etc. with 16.16 fixed precision.  The implementation is based on
+the CORDIC  algorithm and is very fast  while being sufficiently
+accurate.
+III. INTERNALS
+- Added  BeOS-specific files  in the  old build  sub-system.  Note
+that no changes were required to compile the library with Jam.
+- The  configuration  is now  capable  of automatically  detecting
+64-bit integers  on a set  of predefined compilers  (GCC, Visual
+C++, Borland C++) and will use them by default.  This provides a
+small performance boost.
+- A  small memory leak  that happened  when opening  0-sized files
+(duh!)  have been fixed.
+- Fixed bezier  stack depth  bug in the  routines provided  by the
+FT_BBOX_H  header   file.   Also  fixed  similar   bugs  in  the
+rasterizers.
+- The outline bounding  box code has been rewritten  to use direct
+computations,  instead of  bezier sub-division,  to  compute the
+exact bounding box of glyphs.   This is slightly slower but more
+accurate.
+- The build system has been  improved and fixed, mainly to support
+`make'  on Windows  2000  correctly, avoid  problems with  `make
+distclean' on non Unix systems, etc.
+- Hexadecimal  constants  have been  suffixed  with  `U' to  avoid
+problems with certain compilers on 64-bit platforms.
+- A new directory named `src/tools' has been created.  It contains
+Python scripts and simple unit test programs used to develop the
+library.
+- The DocMaker tool has been  moved from `docs' to `src/tools' and
+has been updated with the following:
+- Now accepts the `--title=XXXX' or `-t XXXX' option from the
+command line to set the project's name in the generated API
+reference.
+- Now accepts the `--output=DIR'  or `-o DIR' option from the
+command line to set  the output directory for all generated
+HTML files.
+- Now accepts the `--prefix=XXXX' or `-p XXX' option from the
+command  line  to  set  the  file prefix  to  use  for  all
+generated HTML files.
+- Now generates the current  time/data on each generated page
+in order to distinguish between versions.
+DocMaker  can be  used with  other  projects now,  not only  FT2
+(e.g. MLib, FTLayout, etc.).
+======================================================================
+CHANGES BETWEEN 2.0.2 and 2.0.1
+I. CHANGES TO THE MODULES / FONT DRIVERS
+- THE TRUETYPE BYTECODE INTERPRETER IS NOW TURNED OFF, in order to
+avoid legal problems  with the Apple patents.  It  seems that we
+mistakenly  turned this option  on in  previous releases  of the
+build.
+Note that if  you want to use the  bytecode interpreter in order
+to get high-quality TrueType  rendering, you will need to toggle
+by        hand        the        definition        of        the
+TT_CONFIG_OPTION_BYTECODE_INTERPRETER   macro    in   the   file
+`include/freetype/config/ftoption.h'.
+- The CFF driver has been improved by Tom Kacvinsky and Sander van
+der Wal:
+* Support for `seac' emulation.
+* Support for `dotsection'.
+* Support for retrieving glyph names through
+`FT_Get_Glyph_Name'.
+The first two items are necessary to correctly a large number of
+Type 1 fonts converted to the CFF formats by Adobe Acrobat.
+- The Type 1 driver was also improved by Tom & others:
+* Better EM size computation.
+* Better support for synthetic (transformed) fonts.
+* The  Type 1  driver returns  the charstrings  corresponding to
+each glyph in the  `glyph->control_data' field after a call to
+`FT_Load_Glyph' (thanks Ha Shao).
+- Various other bugfixes, including the following:
+* Fixed a nasty memory leak in the Type 1 driver.
+* The autohinter  and the pcf  driver used static  writable data
+when they shouldn't.
+* Many casts were added to  make the code more 64-bits safe.  It
+also now compiles on Windows XP 64-bits without warnings.
+* Some incorrect writable statics were removed in the `autohint'
+and `pcf' drivers.  FreeType 2 now compiles on Epoc again.
+II. CHANGES TO THE HIGH-LEVEL API
+- The library header files inclusion scheme has been changed.  The
+old scheme looked like:
+#include <freetype/freetype.h>
+#include <freetype/ftglyph.h>
+#include <freetype/ftcache.h>
+#include <freetype/cache/ftimage.h>
+Now you should use:
+#include <ft2build.h>
+#include FT_FREETYPE_H
+#include FT_GLYPH_H
+#include FT_CACHE_H
+#include FT_CACHE_IMAGE_H
+NOTE THAT  THE OLD  INCLUSION SCHEME WILL  STILL WORK  WITH THIS
+RELEASE.  HOWEVER, WE  DO NOT GUARANTEE THAT THIS  WILL STILL BE
+TRUE IN THE NEXT ONE (A.K.A. FREETYPE 2.1).
+The  file <ft2build.h>  is used  to define  the  header filename
+macros.  The complete and  commented list of macros is available
+in the API reference under the section name `Header File Macros'
+in Chapter I.
+For more information, see section I of the following document:
+http://www.freetype.org/
+freetype2/docs/tutorial/step1.html
+or
+http://freetype.sourceforge.net/
+freetype2/docs/tutorial/step1.html
+- Many, many comments have been added to the public source file in
+order to  automatically generate  the API Reference  through the
+`docmaker.py' Python script.
+The latter has been updated  to support the grouping of sections
+in chapters and better index sort.  See:
+http://www.freetype.org/freetype2/docs/reference/ft2-toc.html
+III. CHANGES TO THE BUILD PROCESS
+- If you  are not  building FreeType 2  with its own  build system
+(but with your own Makefiles or project files), you will need to
+be  aware that  the  build  process has  changed  a little  bit.
+You don't  need to put the  `src' directory in  the include path
+when  compiling  any FT2  component.   Instead,  simply put  the
+component's directory in the current include path.
+So, if you were doing something like:
+cc -c -Iinclude -Isrc src/base/ftbase.c
+change the line to:
+cc -c -Iinclude -Isrc/base src/base/ftbase.c
+If you were doing something like:
+cd src/base
+cc -c -I../../include -I.. ftbase.c
+change it to:
+cd src/base
+cc -c -I../../include ftbase.c
+======================================================================
+CHANGES BETWEEN 2.0.1 and 2.0
+2.0.1 introduces a few changes:
+- Fixed many bugs related to  the support of CFF / OpenType fonts.
+These  formats are  now much  better supported  though  there is
+still work planned to  deal with charset tables and PDF-embedded
+CFF files that use the old `seac' command.
+- The  library could not  be compiled  in debug  mode with  a very
+small  number   of  C  compilers   whose  pre-processors  didn't
+implement the `##'  directive correctly (i.e. per se  the ANSI C
+specification!)  An elegant fix was found.
+- Added  support for  the  free Borland  command-line C++  Builder
+compiler.   Use `make  setup bcc32'.   Also fixed  a  few source
+lines that generated new warnings with BCC32.
+- Fixed a bug in FT_Outline_Get_BBox when computing the extrema of
+a conic Bezier arc.
+- Updated the INSTALL file to add IDE compilation.
+- Other  minor bug  fixes,  from  invalid Type  1  style flags  to
+correct   support   of  synthetic   (obliqued)   fonts  in   the
+auto-hinter, better support for embedded bitmaps in a SFNT font.
+- Fixed some problems with `freetype-config'.
+Finally, the `standard' scheme for including FreeType headers is now
+gradually changing,  but this will  be explained in a  later release
+(probably 2.0.2).
+And very  special thanks to Tom Kacvinsky  and YAMANO-UCHI Hidetoshi
+for their contributions!
+======================================================================
+CHANGES BETWEEN beta8 and 2.0
+- Changed  the default  installation  path for  public headers  from
+`include/freetype' to `include/freetype2'.
+Also added a new `freetype-config' that is automatically generated
+and installed  on Unix and  Cygwin systems.  The script  itself is
+used to retrieve the current  install path, C compilation flags as
+well as linker flags.
+- Fixed several small bugs:
+* Incorrect max advance width for fixed-pitch Type 1 fonts.
+* Incorrect glyph names for certain TrueType fonts.
+* The  glyph advance  was not  copied when  FT_Glyph_To_Bitmap was
+called.
+* The  linearHoriAdvance  and  linearVertAdvance  fields  were not
+correctly returned for glyphs processed by the auto-hinter.
+* `type1z'  renamed back to  `type1'; the  old `type1'  module has
+been removed.
+- Revamped the  build system  to make it  a lot more  generic.  This
+will  allow us  to  re-use  nearly un-modified  in  lots of  other
+projects (including FreeType Layout).
+- Changed `cid' to use `psaux' too.
+- Added the  cache sub-system.  See <freetype/ftcache.h>  as well as
+the sources  in `src/cache'.  Note  that it compiles but  is still
+untested for now.
+- Updated `docs/docmaker.py', a draft  API reference is available at
+http://www.freetype.org/ft2api.html.
+- Changed `type1' to use `psaux'.
+- Created a  new module named  `psaux' to hold  the Type 1 &  Type 2
+parsing routines.  It should be  used by `type1', `cid', and `cff'
+in the future.
+- Fixed an important bug in `FT_Glyph_Get_CBox'.
+- Fixed  some compiler  warnings  that happened  since the  TrueType
+bytecode decoder was deactivated by default.
+- Fixed two memory leaks:
+* The    memory   manager   (16    bytes)   isn't    released   in
+FT_Done_FreeType!
+* Using custom input streams, the  copy of the original stream was
+never released.
+- Fixed the  auto-hinter by performing automatic  computation of the
+`filling direction' of each glyph.   This is done through a simple
+and  fast approximation, and  seems to  work (problems  spotted by
+Werner though).  The Arphic fonts are a lot nicer though there are
+still a lot of things to do to handle Asian fonts correctly.
+======================================================================
+BETA-8 (RELEASE CANDIDATE) CHANGES
+- Deactivated the TrueType bytecode interpreter by default.
+- Deactivated the `src/type1' font driver.  Now `src/type1z' is used
+by default.
+- Updates to the build system.  We now compile the library correctly
+under  Unix  system  through  `configure' which  is  automatically
+called on the first `make' invocation.
+- Added the auto-hinting module!  Fixing some bugs here and there.
+- Found some bugs in the  composite loader (seac) of the Type1-based
+font drivers.
+- Renamed the directory `freetype2/config' to `freetype2/builds' and
+updated all relevant files.
+- Found a memory leak in the `type1' driver.
+- Incorporated Tom's patches to  support flex operators correctly in
+OpenType/CFF fonts.  Now all I need is to support pure CFF and CEF
+fonts to be done with this driver :-)
+- Added the  Windows FNT/FON driver in `src/winfonts'.   For now, it
+always  `simulates'   a  Unicode  charmap,  so   it  shouldn't  be
+considered completed right now.
+It  is there  to be  more a  proof of  concept than  anything else
+anyway.  The driver is a single  C source file, that compiles to 3
+Kb of code.
+I'm  still working on  the PCF/BDF  drivers, but  I'm too  lazy to
+finish them now.
+- CHANGES TO THE HIGH-LEVEL API
+* FT_Get_Kerning has a new parameter that allows you to select the
+coordinates of the kerning  vector (font units, scaled, scaled +
+grid-fitted).
+* The  outline functions are  now in <freetype/ftoutln.h>  and not
+part of <freetype/freetype.h> anymore.
+* <freetype/ftmodule.h>    now     contains    declarations    for
+FT_New_Library, FT_Done_Library, FT_Add_Default_Modules.
+* The so-called convenience  functions have moved from `ftoutln.c'
+to  `ftglyph.c',  and  are  thus available  with  this  optional
+component    of   the   library.     They   are    declared   in
+<freetype/ftglyph.h> now.
+* Anti-aliased  rendering is now  the default  for FT_Render_Glyph
+(i.e. corresponds to render_mode == 0 == ft_render_mode_normal).
+To generate a monochrome bitmap, use ft_render_mode_mono, or the
+FT_LOAD_MONOCHROME     flag    in    FT_Load_Glyph/FT_Load_Char.
+FT_LOAD_ANTI_ALIAS is still defined, but values to 0.
+* <freetype/freetype.h>  now include <freetype/config/ftconfig.h>,
+solving a few headaches :-)
+* The type FT_GlyphSlotRec has now a `library' field.
+- CHANGES TO THE `ftglyph.h' API
+This API has  been severely modified in order  to make it simpler,
+clearer, and more  efficient.  It certainly now looks  like a real
+`glyph factory'  object, and allows client  applications to manage
+(i.e.  transform,  bbox  and  render) glyph  images  without  ever
+knowing their original format.
+- Added  support  for CID-keyed  fonts  to  the  CFF driver.   Maybe
+support for pure CFF + CEF fonts should come in?
+- Cleaned up  source code in order  to avoid two  functions with the
+same name.  Also  changed the names of the  files in `type1z' from
+`t1XXXX' to `z1XXXX' in order to avoid any conflicts.
+`make multi' now works well :-)
+Also removed the use of `cidafm' for now, even if the source files
+are  still there.  This  functionality will  certainly  go into  a
+specific module.
+- ADDED SUPPORT FOR THE AUTO-HINTER
+It  works :-) I  have a  demo program  which simply  is a  copy of
+`ftview'       that      does       a      `FT_Add_Module(library,
+&autohinter_module_class)' after  library initialization, and Type
+1 & OpenType/CFF fonts are now hinted.
+CID  fonts are  not hinted,  as they  include no  charmap  and the
+auto-hinter doesn't include  `generic' global metrics computations
+yet.
+Now, I need to release this thing to the FreeType 2 source.
+- CHANGES TO THE RENDERER MODULES
+The  monochrome  and smooth  renderers  are  now  in two  distinct
+directories, namely `src/raster1' and `src/smooth'.  Note that the
+old `src/renderer' is now gone.
+I ditched  the 5-gray-levels renderers.  Basically,  it involved a
+simple #define toggle in 'src/raster1/ftraster.c'.
+FT_Render_Glyph,  FT_Outline_Render  &  FT_Outline_Get_Bitmap  now
+select the best renderer  available, depending on render mode.  If
+the current renderer for a  given glyph image format isn't capable
+of supporting  the render mode, another  one will be  found in the
+library's list.   This means that client applications  do not need
+to  switch or  set  the  renderers themselves  (as  in the  latest
+change), they'll get what they want automatically.  At last.
+Changed the demo programs accordingly.
+- MAJOR INTERNAL REDESIGN:
+A lot of internal modifications  have been performed lately on the
+source in order to provide the following enhancements:
+* More generic module support:
+The FT_Module  type is  now defined to  represent a handle  to a
+given  module.   The  file  <freetype/ftmodule.h>  contains  the
+FT_Module_Class definition, as well as the module-loading public
+API.
+The  FT_Driver type  is still  defined, and  still  represents a
+pointer to  a font driver.  Note that  FT_Add_Driver is replaced
+by FT_Add_Module, FT_Get_Driver by FT_Get_Module, etc.
+* Support for generic glyph image types:
+The FT_Renderer  type is a pointer  to a module  used to perform
+various operations on glyph image.
+Each renderer is  capable of handling images in  a single format
+(e.g. ft_glyph_format_outline).  Its functions are used to:
+- transform an glyph image
+- render a glyph image into a bitmap
+- return the control box (dimensions) of a given glyph image
+The scan converters `ftraster.c' and `ftgrays.c' have been moved
+to the new directory `src/renderer', and are used to provide two
+default renderer modules.
+One corresponds  to the `standard' scan-converter,  the other to
+the `smooth' one.
+he  current  renderer  can  be  set  through  the  new  function
+FT_Set_Renderer.
+The old raster-related function FT_Set_Raster, FT_Get_Raster and
+FT_Set_Raster_Mode have now disappeared, in favor of the new:
+FT_Get_Renderer
+FT_Set_Renderer
+See the file <freetype/ftrender.h> for more details.
+These  changes  were  necessary  to properly  support  different
+scalable formats in the future, like bi-color glyphs, etc.
+* Glyph loader object:
+A  new  internal  object,  called  a  'glyph  loader'  has  been
+introduced in the base layer.  It is used by all scalable format
+font drivers to load glyphs and composites.
+This object  has been  created to reduce  the code size  of each
+driver,  as  each  one  of  them  basically  re-implemented  its
+functionality.
+See <freetype/internal/ftobjs.h> and the FT_GlyphLoader type for
+more information.
+* FT_GlyphSlot has new fields:
+In  order   to  support  extended  features   (see  below),  the
+FT_GlyphSlot structure has a few new fields:
+linearHoriAdvance:
+This  field  gives  the   linearly  scaled  (i.e.  scaled  but
+unhinted) advance  width for the  glyph, expressed as  a 16.16
+fixed pixel value.  This is useful to perform WYSIWYG text.
+linearVertAdvance:
+This field  gives the linearly  scaled advance height  for the
+glyph  (relevant in  vertical  glyph layouts  only).  This  is
+useful to perform WYSIWYG text.
+Note that  the two above field replace  the removed `metrics2'
+field in the glyph slot.
+advance:
+This field is a vector  that gives the transformed advance for
+the glyph.   By default, it corresponds to  the advance width,
+unless  FT_LOAD_VERTICAL_LAYOUT  was  specified  when  calling
+FT_Load_Glyph or FT_Load_Char.
+bitmap_left:
+This  field gives  the  distance in  integer  pixels from  the
+current pen position  to the left-most pixel of  a glyph image
+IF IT IS  A BITMAP.  It is only valid  when the `format' field
+is set to `ft_glyph_format_bitmap', for example, after calling
+the new function FT_Render_Glyph.
+bitmap_top:
+This  field gives  the  distance in  integer  pixels from  the
+current pen position (located on the baseline) to the top-most
+pixel of the  glyph image IF IT IS  A BITMAP.  Positive values
+correspond to upwards Y.
+loader:
+This  is a  new  private  field for  the  glyph slot.   Client
+applications should not touch it.
+* Support for transforms and direct rendering in FT_Load_Glyph:
+Most of the functionality found in <freetype/ftglyph.h> has been
+moved to the core library.  Hence, the following:
+- A   transform   can   be   specified  for   a   face   through
+FT_Set_Transform.  this transform  is applied by FT_Load_Glyph
+to  scalable glyph  images (i.e.  NOT TO  BITMAPS)  before the
+function returns, unless the bit flag FT_LOAD_IGNORE_TRANSFORM
+was set in the load flags.
+- Once  a  glyph image  has  been  loaded,  it can  be  directly
+converted  to  a  bitmap  by  using  the  new  FT_Render_Glyph
+function.  Note that this  function takes the glyph image from
+the glyph slot,  and converts it to a  bitmap whose properties
+are returned  in `face.glyph.bitmap', `face.glyph.bitmap_left'
+and `face.glyph.bitmap_top'.  The  original native image might
+be lost after the conversion.
+- When using the new  bit flag FT_LOAD_RENDER, the FT_Load_Glyph
+and   FT_Load_Char   functions   will   call   FT_Render_Glyph
+automatically when needed.
+- Reformatted all  modules source  code in order  to get rid  of the
+basic data types redifinitions (i.e. `TT_Int' instead of `FT_Int',
+`T1_Fixed'  instead  of  `FT_Fixed').  Hence  the  format-specific
+prefixes like  `TT_', `T1_',  `T2_' and `CID_'  are only  used for
+relevant structures.
+======================================================================
+OLD CHANGES FOR BETA 7
+- bug-fixed the  OpenType/CFF parser.  It  now loads and displays my
+two  fonts nicely,  but I'm  pretty certain  that more  testing is
+needed :-)
+- fixed the crummy Type 1 hinter, it now handles accented characters
+correctly (well, the accent is  not always well placed, but that's
+another problem..)
+- added the CID-keyed Type 1 driver in `src/cid'.  Works pretty well
+for only 13 Kb of code  ;-) Doesn't read AFM files though, nor the
+really useful CMAP files..
+- fixed  two  bugs  in  the  smooth  renderer  (src/base/ftgrays.c).
+Thanks to Boris Letocha for spotting them and providing a fix.
+- fixed potential `divide by zero' bugs in ftcalc.c.
+- added source  code for  the OpenType/CFF driver  (still incomplete
+though..)
+- modified the  SFNT driver slightly  to perform more  robust header
+checks  in TT_Load_SFNT_Header.  This prevents certain  font files
+(e.g.  some  Type  1  Multiple  Masters)  from  being  incorrectly
+`recognized' as TrueType font files..
+- moved a lot of stuff from  the TrueType driver to the SFNT module,
+this   allows   greater   code   re-use   between   font   drivers
+(e.g. TrueType, OpenType, Compact-TrueType, etc..)
+- added a tiny segment cache to the SFNT Charmap 4 decoder, in order
+to minimally speed it up..
+- added  support for  Multiple Master  fonts in  `type1z'.  There is
+also a new file named <freetype/ftmm.h> which defines functions to
+manage them from client applications.
+The new file `src/base/ftmm.c' is also optional to the engine..
+- various  formatting changes (e.g.  EXPORT_DEF ->  FT_EXPORT_DEF) +
+small bug fixes in FT_Load_Glyph, the `type1' driver, etc..
+- a minor fix to the Type 1 driver to let them apply the font matrix
+correctly (used for many oblique fonts..)
+- some fixes for 64-bit systems (mainly changing some FT_TRACE calls
+to use %p instead of %lx).  Thanks to Karl Robillard.
+- fixed  some bugs  in  the sbit  loader (src/base/sfnt/ttsbit.c)  +
+added  a new flag,  FT_LOAD_CROP_BITMAP to  query that  bitmaps be
+cropped when  loaded from a file  (maybe I should  move the bitmap
+cropper to the base layer ??).
+- changed the default  number of gray levels of  the smooth renderer
+to 256  (instead of  the previous 128).  Of course, the  human eye
+can't see any difference ;-)
+- removed TT_MAX_SUBGLYPHS,  there is no static limit  on the number
+of subglyphs in a TrueType font now..
+======================================================================
+OLD CHANGES 16 May 2000
+- tagged `BETA-6'  in the  CVS tree.  This one is a  serious release
+candidate even though it doesn't incorporate the auto-hinter yet..
+- various obsolete files were removed, and copyright header updated
+- finally  updated  the  standard   raster  to  fix  the  monochrome
+rendering bug + re-enable  support for 5-gray levels anti-aliasing
+(suck, suck..)
+- created new header files, and modified sources accordingly:
+<freetype/fttypes.h>
+- simple FreeType types, without the API
+<freetype/internal/ftmemory.h>
+- definition of memory-management macros
+- added   the   `DSIG'   (OpenType   Digital   Signature)   tag   to
+<freetype/tttags.h>
+- light update/cleaning of the build system + changes to the sources
+in  order  to  get  rid  of _all_  compiler  warnings  with  three
+compilers, i.e:
+gcc with `-ansi -pedantic -Wall -W', Visual C++ with `/W3 /WX' and
+LCC
+IMPORTANT NOTE FOR WIN32-LCC USERS:
+|
+|  It seems the C pre-processor  that comes with LCC is broken, it
+|  doesn't  recognize  the  ANSI  standard  directives  #  and  ##
+|  correctly   when  one  of   the  argument  is  a  macro.  Also,
+|  something like:
+|
+|     #define F(x)  print##x
+|
+|     F(("hello"))
+|
+|  will get incorrectly translated to:
+|
+|     print "hello")
+|
+|  by its pre-processor.  For this reason, you simply cannot build
+|  FreeType 2 in debug mode with this compiler..
+- yet  another massive grunt work.  I've  changed the  definition of
+the EXPORT_DEF,  EXPORT_FUNC, BASE_DEF &  BASE_FUNC macros.  These
+now take an argument, which is the function's return value type.
+This  is necessary to  compile FreeType  as a  DLL on  Windows and
+OS/2.  Depending on the compiler used, a compiler-specific keyword
+like  __export or __system  must be  placed before  (VisualC++) or
+after (BorlandC++) the type..
+Of course, this needed a lot of changes throughout the source code
+to make it compile again...  All cleaned up now, apparently..
+Note also  that there is a  new EXPORT_VAR macro  defined to allow
+the   _declaration_    of   an   exportable    public   (constant)
+variable.  This  is  the   case  of  the  raster  interfaces  (see
+ftraster.h and ftgrays.h), as well as each module's interface (see
+sfdriver.h, psdriver.h, etc..)
+- new feature: it  is now possible to pass  extra parameters to font
+drivers  when creating  a new  face object.  For now,
+this capability is unused.  It could however prove to
+be useful in a near future..
+the FT_Open_Args structure was  changes, as well as the internal
+driver interface  (the specific `init_face'  module function has
+now a different signature).
+- updated the tutorial (not finished though).
+- updated the top-level BUILD  document
+- fixed  a  potential memory  leak  that  could  occur when  loading
+embedded bitmaps.
+- added     the     declaration     of     FT_New_Memory_Face     in
+<freetype/freetype.h>, as  it was  missing from the  public header
+(the implementation was already in `ftobjs.c').
+- the file <freetype/fterrors.h> has been seriously updated in order
+to allow  the automatic generation  of error message tables.   See
+the comments within it for more information.
+- major directory  hierarchy re-organisation.  This was done for two
+things:
+* first,  to ease  the `manual'  compilation of  the  library by
+requiring at lot less include paths :-)
+* second,  to  allow  external  programs to  effectively  access
+internal  data  fields.  For example,  this  can be  extremely
+useful if  someone wants  to write a  font producer or  a font
+manager on top of FreeType.
+Basically, you  should now use  the 'freetype/' prefix  for header
+inclusion, as in:
+#include <freetype/freetype.h>
+#include <freetype/ftglyph.h>
+Some new include sub-directories are available:
+a. the  `freetype/config' directory,  contains two files  used to
+configure  the  build  of  the  library.  Client  applications
+should  not need  to look  at these  normally, but they can if
+they want.
+#include <freetype/config/ftoption.h>
+#include <freetype/config/ftconfig.h>
+b. the `freetype/internal'  directory, contains header files that
+describes library  internals.  These are the header files that
+were  previously  found  in  the `src/base'  and  `src/shared'
+directories.
+As  usual, the build  system and  the demos  have been  updated to
+reflect the change..
+Here's a layout of the new directory hierarchy:
+TOP_DIR
+include/
+freetype/
+freetype.h
+...
+config/
+ftoption.h
+ftconfig.h
+ftmodule.h
+internal/
+ftobjs.h
+ftstream.h
+ftcalc.h
+...
+src/
+base/
+...
+sfnt/
+psnames/
+truetype/
+type1/
+type1z/
+Compiling a module is now  much easier, for example, the following
+should work when in the TOP_DIR directory on an ANSI build:
+gcc -c -I./include -I./src/base src/base/ftbase.c
+gcc -c -I./include -I./src/sfnt src/sfnt/sfnt.c
+etc..
+(of course, using -Iconfig/<system> if you provide system-specific
+configuration files).
+- updated the structure of FT_Outline_Funcs in order to allow direct
+coordinate scaling within  the outline decomposition routine (this
+is  important for virtual  `on' points  with TrueType  outlines) +
+updates to the rasters to support this..
+- updated  the OS/2  table  loading code  in `src/sfnt/ttload.c'  in
+order to support version 2 of the table (see OpenType 1.2 spec)
+- created  `include/tttables.h'  and  `include/t1tables.h' to  allow
+client applications to access some of  the SFNT and T1 tables of a
+face  with  a  procedural  interface (see  `FT_Get_Sfnt_Table')  +
+updates to internal source files to reflect the change..
+- some  cleanups in  the source  code to  get rid  of  warnings when
+compiling with the `-Wall -W -ansi -pedantic' options in gcc.
+- debugged and moved the smooth renderer to `src/base/ftgrays.c' and
+its header to `include/ftgrays.h'
+- updated TT_MAX_SUBGLYPHS  to 96 as some CJK  fonts have composites
+with up to 80 sub-glyphs !! Thanks to Werner
+======================================================================
+OLD CHANGES - 14-apr-2000
+- fixed  a bug  in  the  TrueType glyph  loader  that prevented  the
+correct loading of some CJK glyphs in mingli.ttf
+- improved the standard Type 1 hinter in `src/type1'
+- fixed two bugs  in the experimental Type 1  driver in `src/type1z'
+to handle the new XFree86 4.0 fonts (and a few other ones..)
+- the smooth  renderer is now  complete and supports  sub-banding to
+render large glyphs  at high speed.  However, it is still  located
+in `demos/src/ftgrays.c' and should move to the  library itself in
+the next  beta.  NOTE: The  smooth  renderer  doesn't  compile  in
+stand-alone mode anymore, but this should be fixed RSN..
+- introduced convenience  functions to  more easily deal  with glyph
+images, see  `include/ftglyph.h' for more details, as  well as the
+new  demo program  named `demos/src/ftstring.c'  that demonstrates
+its use
+- implemented  FT_LOAD_NO_RECURSE in  both the  TrueType and  Type 1
+drivers  (this  is required  by  the  auto-hinter  to improve  its
+results).
+- changed   the  raster   interface,  in   order  to   allow  client
+applications  to   provide  their   own  span-drawing   callbacks.
+However,   only   the   smooth   renderer   supports   this.   See
+`FT_Raster_Params' in the file `include/ftimage.h'.
+- fixed  a small bug  in FT_MulFix  that caused  incorrect transform
+computation!
+- Note: The tutorial is out-of-date.
+======================================================================
+OLD CHANGES - 12-mar-2000
+- changed  the  layout  of  configuration  files  :  now,  all  ANSI
+configuration         files         are         located         in
+`freetype2/config'.  System-specific over-rides  can be  placed in
+`freetype2/config/<system>'.
+- moved all configuration macros to `config/ftoption.h'
+- improvements in the Type 1 driver with AFM support
+- changed the fields  in the FT_Outline structure :  the old `flags'
+array is re-named `tags', while all ancient flags are encoded into
+a single unsigned int named `flags'.
+- introduced     new      flags     in     FT_Outline.flags     (see
+ft_outline_.... enums in `ftimage.h').
+- changed outline functions to `FT_Outline_<action>' syntax
+- added a smooth anti-alias renderer to the demonstration programs
+- added Mac graphics driver (thanks Just)
+- FT_Open_Face  changed  in  order   to  received  a  pointer  to  a
+FT_Open_Args descriptor..
+- various  cleanups,  a  few  more API  functions  implemented  (see
+FT_Attach_File)
+- updated some docs
+======================================================================
+OLD CHANGES - 22-feb-2000
+- introduced the `psnames' module.  It is used to:
+o convert  a Postscript glyph  name into the  equivalent Unicode
+character code (used by the  Type 1 driver(s) to synthesize on
+the fly a Unicode charmap).
+o provide an  interface to retrieve the Postscript  names of the
+Macintosh,  Adobe  Standard &  Adobe  Expert character  codes.
+(the Macintosh  names are  used by the  SFNT-module postscript
+names support routines, while the other two tables are used by
+the Type 1 driver(s)).
+- introduced the `type1z' alternate Type 1 driver.  This is a (still
+experimental) driver  for the Type  1 format that  will ultimately
+replace the one  in `src/type1'.  It uses pattern matching to load
+data from the font, instead of a finite  state analyzer.  It works
+much better than the `old' driver with `broken' fonts.  It is also
+much smaller (under 15 Kb).
+- the  Type 1  drivers (both  in `src/type1'  and  `src/type1z') are
+nearly  complete.  They  both  provide automatic  Unicode  charmap
+synthesis through  the `psnames' module.  No re-encoding vector is
+needed.  (note  that they  still  leak  memory  due to  some  code
+missing, and I'm getting lazy).
+Trivial AFM support has been added to read kerning information but
+wasn't exactly tested as it should ;-)
+- The TrueType  glyph loader has  been seriously rewritten  (see the
+file  `src/truetype/ttgload.c'.  It is now  much, much  simpler as
+well as  easier to read,  maintain and understand  :-) Preliminary
+versions introduced a  memory leak that has been  reported by Jack
+Davis, and is now fixed..
+- introduced  the new  `ft_glyph_format_plotter', used  to represent
+stroked outlines  like Windows `Vector' fonts, and  certain Type 1
+fonts  like `Hershey'.  The corresponding  raster will  be written
+soon.
+- FT_New_Memory_Face  is  gone.  Likewise,  FT_Open_Face has  a  new
+interface that uses a structure  to describe the input stream, the
+driver (if required), etc..
+TODO
+- Write FT_Get_Glyph_Bitmap and FT_Load_Glyph_Bitmap
+- Add a function like FT_Load_Character(face, char_code, load_flags)
+that  would   really  embed  a  call   to  FT_Get_Char_Index  then
+FT_Load_Glyph to ease developer's work.
+- Update the tutorial!
+- consider adding  support for Multiple  Master fonts in the  Type 1
+drivers.
+- Test the AFM routines of the  Type 1 drivers to check that kerning
+information is returned correctly.
+- write a decent auto-gridding component  !! We need this to release
+FreeType 2.0 gold !
+less urgent needs:
+- add a CFF/Type2 driver
+- add a BDF driver
+- add a FNT/PCF/HBF driver
+- add a Speedo driver from the X11 sources
+======================================================================
+OLDER CHANGES - 27-jan-2000
+- updated the  `sfnt' module  interface to allow  several SFNT-based
+drivers to co-exist peacefully
+- updated  the `T1_Face'  type  to better  separate Postscript  font
+content  from the  rest of  the FT_Face  structure.  Might be used
+later by the CFF/Type2 driver..
+- added an experimental replacement Type 1 driver featuring advanced
+(and speedy) pattern matching to retrieve the data from postscript
+fonts.
+- very minor  changes in the implementation  of FT_Set_Char_Size and
+FT_Set_Pixel_Sizes (they now implement default to lighten the font
+driver's code).
+======================================================================
+OLD MESSAGE
+This file summarizes the changes  that occurred  since the last `beta'
+of FreeType 2. Because the list is important, it has been divided into
+separate sections:
+Table Of Contents:
+I   High-Level Interface (easier !)
+II   Directory Structure
+III   Glyph Image Formats
+IV   Build System
+V   Portability
+VI   Font Drivers
+----------------------------------------------------------------------
+High-Level Interface:
+The high-level API has been considerably simplified.  Here is how:
+- resource objects have disappeared.  this means that face objects
+can now be created with  a single function call (see FT_New_Face
+and FT_Open_Face)
+- when calling  either FT_New_Face  & FT_Open_Face, a  size object
+and a glyph slot object  are automatically created for the face,
+and can  be accessed  through `face->glyph' and  `face->size' if
+one really  needs to.   In most cases,  there's no need  to call
+FT_New_Size or FT_New_Glyph.
+- similarly,  FT_Load_Glyph  now  only  takes  a  `face'  argument
+(instead  of a  glyph  slot  and a  size).  Also,  its  `result'
+parameter is  gone, as the glyph  image type is  returned in the
+field `face->glyph.format'
+- the list  of available  charmaps is directly  accessible through
+`face->charmaps', counting `face->num_charmaps'  elements.  Each
+charmap  has an  'encoding'  field which  specifies which  known
+encoding it deals with.  Valid values are, for example:
+ft_encoding_unicode      (for ASCII, Latin-1 and Unicode)
+ft_encoding_apple_roman
+ft_encoding_sjis
+ft_encoding_adobe_standard
+ft_encoding_adobe_expert
+other  values may  be added  in the  future.  Each charmap still
+holds  its `platform_id'  and `encoding_id'  values in  case the
+encoding is too exotic for the current library
+----------------------------------------------------------------------
+Directory Structure:
+Should seem obvious to most of you:
+freetype/
+config/        -- configuration sub-makefiles
+ansi/
+unix/       -- platform-specific configuration files
+win32/
+os2/
+msdos/
+include/       -- public header  files, those to  be included
+directly by client apps
+src/           -- sources of the library
+base/        -- the base layer
+sfnt/        -- the sfnt `driver'  (see the drivers section
+below)
+truetype/    -- the truetype driver
+type1/       -- the type1 driver
+shared/      -- some header files shared between drivers
+demos/         -- demos/tools
+docs/          -- documentation (a bit empty for now)
+----------------------------------------------------------------------
+Glyph Image Formats:
+Drivers are now able to  register new glyph image formats within the
+library.  For  now, the  base layer supports  of course  bitmaps and
+vector  outlines, but  one  could imagine  something different  like
+colored bitmaps, bi-color vectors or whatever else (Metafonts anyone
+??).
+See  the   file  `include/ftimage.h'.   Note  also  that   the  type
+FT_Raster_Map  is gone,  and  is now  replaced  by FT_Bitmap,  which
+should encompass all known bitmap types.
+Each new  image format  must provide at  least one `raster',  i.e. a
+module capable of  transforming the glyph image into a bitmap.  It's
+also possible  to change the default  raster used for  a given glyph
+image format.
+The default outline  scan-converter now uses 128 levels  of grays by
+default,  which tends  to smooth  many  things.  Note that the  demo
+programs have been updated significantly in order to display these..
+----------------------------------------------------------------------
+Build system:
+You still need  GNU Make to build the library.  The build system has
+been very seriously re-vamped in order to provide things like :
+- automatic host platform  detection (reverting to 'config/ansi' if
+it is not detected, with pseudo-standard compilation flags)
+- the ability to compile from the Makefiles with very different and
+exotic compilers.  Note that linking the library can be difficult
+for some platforms.
+For example, the file `config/win32/lcclib.bat' is invoked by the
+build system to create the `.lib' file with LCC-Win32 because its
+librarian  has too  many flaws  to be  invoked directly  from the
+Makefile.
+Here's how it works:
+- the first time you type `make',  the build system runs a series of
+sub-makefiles  in order  to detect  your host  platform.  It  then
+dumps what it found, and creates a file called `config.mk' in  the
+current  directory.  This is a  sub-Makefile used  to  define many
+important Make variables used to build the library.
+- the second time, the build system detects the `config.mk' then use
+it  to  build the  library.  All object  files  go  into 'obj'  by
+default,  as well  as the  library file,  but this  can  easily be
+changed.
+Note that  you can run `make  setup' to force  another host platform
+detection  even   if  a  `config.mk'  is  present   in  the  current
+directory.  Another solution  is  simply to  delete  the file,  then
+re-run make.
+Finally, the  default compiler  for all platforms  is gcc  (for now,
+this will hopefully changed in the future).  You can however specify
+a different  compiler by specifying  it after the 'setup'  target as
+in:
+gnumake setup lcc         on Win32 to use the LCC compiler
+gnumake setup visualc     on Win32 to use Visual C++
+See  the file  `config/<system>/detect.mk' for  a list  of supported
+compilers for your platforms.
+It should be relatively easy  to write new detection rules files and
+config.mk..
+Finally, to  build the demo programs,  go to `demos'  and launch GNU
+Make, it will use the `config.mk'  in the top directory to build the
+test programs..
+----------------------------------------------------------------------
+Portability:
+In  the  previous  beta,  a  single FT_System  object  was  used  to
+encompass  all  low-level  operations like  thread  synchronisation,
+memory management and i/o access.  This has been greatly simplified:
+- thread synchronisation  has been dropped, for  the simple reason
+that the library  is already re-entrant, and that  if you really
+need  two  threads accessing  the  same  FT_Library, you  should
+really synchronize access to it yourself with a simple mutex.
+- memory  management is  performed  through a  very simple  object
+called `FT_Memory',  which really is a table  containing a table
+of pointers to  functions like malloc, realloc and  free as well
+as some user data (closure).
+- resources have disappeared (they created more problems than they
+solved), and  i/o management have  been simplified greatly  as a
+result.  Streams are  defined through  FT_Stream objects,  which
+can be either memory-based or disk-based.
+Note that  each face  has its own  stream, which is  closed only
+when  the  face object  is  destroyed.  Hence,  a function  like
+TT_Flush_Face in 1.x cannot be directly  supported.  However, if
+you really need something like  this, you can easily tailor your
+own streams  to achieve the same  feature at a  lower level (and
+use FT_Open_Face instead of FT_New_Face to create the face).
+See the file  `include/ftsystem.h' for more details, as  well as the
+implementations found in `config/unix' and `config/ansi'.
+----------------------------------------------------------------------
+Font Drivers:
+The  Font Driver  interface has  been modified  in order  to support
+extensions & versioning.
+The  list of  the font  drivers that  are statically  linked  to the
+library at compile time is  managed through a new configuration file
+called `config/<platform>/ftmodule.h'.
+This  file is  autogenerated  when  invoking  `make modules'.   This
+target  will  parse  all  sub-directories  of  'src', looking  for a
+`module.mk' rules  file, used  to describe  the driver to  the build
+system.
+Hence, one  should call  `make modules' each  time a font  driver is
+added or removed from the `src' directory.
+Finally, this  version  provides  a `pseudo-driver'  in  `src/sfnt'.
+This  driver  doesn't  support  font  files  directly, but  provides
+services used by all TrueType-like font drivers.  Hence, its code is
+shared between  the TrueType & OpenType  font formats,  and possibly
+more formats to come if we're lucky..
+----------------------------------------------------------------------
+Extensions support:
+The extensions support is inspired by the one found in 1.x.
+Now, each font driver has  its own `extension registry', which lists
+which extensions  are available  for the font  faces managed  by the
+driver.
+Extension ids are  now strings, rather than 4-byte  tags, as this is
+usually more readable.
+Each extension has:
+- some data, associated to each face object
+- an interface (table of function pointers)
+An extension  that is format-specific should  simply register itself
+to the correct font driver.  Here is some example code:
+// Registering an extensions
+//
+FT_Error  FT_Init_XXXX_Extension( FT_Library  library )
+{
+FT_DriverInterface*  tt_driver;
+driver = FT_Get_Driver( library, "truetype" );
+if (!driver) return FT_Err_Unimplemented_Feature;
+return FT_Register_Extension( driver, &extension_class );
+}
+// Implementing the extensions
+//
+FT_Error  FT_Proceed_Extension_XXX( FT_Face  face )
+{
+FT_XXX_Extension            ext;
+FT_XXX_Extension_Interface  ext_interface;
+ext = FT_Get_Extension( face, "extensionid", &ext_interface );
+if (!ext) return error;
+return ext_interface->do_it(ext);
+}
