| Overview of changes leading to 8.0.1 |
| Wednesday, July 12, 2023 |
| ==================================== |
| - Build fix on 32-bit ARM. |
| |
| - More speed optimizations: |
| - 60% speedup in retaingids subsetting SourceHanSans-VF. |
| - 38% speed up in subsetting (beyond-64k) mega-merged Noto. |
| - 16% speed up in retain-gid (used for IFT) subsetting of NotoSansCJKkr. |
| |
| |
| Overview of changes leading to 8.0.0 |
| Sunday, July 9, 2023 |
| ==================================== |
| - New, experimental, WebAssembly (WASM) shaper, that provides greater |
| flexibility over OpenType/AAT/Graphite shaping, using WebAssembly embedded |
| inside the font file. Currently WASM shaper is disabled by default and needs |
| to be enabled at build time. For details, see: |
| |
| https://github.com/harfbuzz/harfbuzz/blob/main/docs/wasm-shaper.md |
| |
| For example fonts making use of the WASM shaper, see: |
| |
| https://github.com/harfbuzz/harfbuzz-wasm-examples |
| |
| - Improvements to Experimental features introduced in earlier releases: |
| - Support for subsetting beyond-64k and VarComposites fonts. |
| - Support for instancing variable fonts with cubic “glyf” table. |
| |
| - Many big speed optimizations: |
| - Up to 89% speedup loading variable fonts for shaping. |
| - Up to 88% speedup in small subsets of large (eg. CJK) fonts (both TTF and |
| OTF), essential for Incremental Font Transfer (IFT). |
| - Over 50% speedup in loading Roboto font for shaping. |
| - Up to 40% speed up in loading (sanitizing) complex fonts. |
| - 30% speed up in shaping Gulzar font. |
| - Over 25% speedup in glyph loading Roboto font. |
| - 10% speed up loading glyph shapes in VarComposite Hangul font. |
| - hb-hashmap optimizations & hashing improvements. |
| |
| - New macro HB_ALWAYS_INLINE. HarfBuzz now inlines functions more aggressively, |
| which results in some speedup at the expense of bigger code size. To disable |
| this feature define the macro to just inline. |

| Overview of changes leading to 6.0.0 |
| Friday, December 16, 2022 |
| ==================================== |
| - A new API have been added to pre-process the face and speed up future |
| subsetting operations on that face. Provides up to a 95% reduction in |
| subsetting times when the same face is subset more than once. |
| |
| For more details and benchmarks, see: |
| https://github.com/harfbuzz/harfbuzz/blob/main/docs/subset-preprocessing.md |
| |
| (Garret Rieger, Behdad Esfahbod) |
| |
| - Shaping have been speedup by skipping entire lookups when the buffer contents |
| don't intersect with the lookup. Shows up to a 10% speedup in shaping some |
| fonts. (Behdad Esfahbod) |
| |
| - A new experimental feature, “Variable Composites” (enabled by passing |
| -Dexperimental_api=true to meson), is also featured in this release. |
| This technology enables drastic compression of fonts in the Chinese, |
| Japanese, Korean, and other writing systems, by reusing the OpenType Font |
| Variations technology for encoding “smart components” into the font. |
| |
| The specification for these extensions to the font format can be found in: |
| https://github.com/harfbuzz/boring-expansion-spec/blob/glyf1/glyf1.md |
| |
| A test variable-font with ~7160 Hangul syllables derived from the |
| NotoSerifKR-VF font has been built, with existing OpenType technology, as |
| well as with the new Variable Composites (VarComposites) technology. The |
| VarComposites font is over 90% smaller than the OpenType version of the font! |
| Both fonts can be obtained from the “smarties” repository: |
| https://github.com/behdad/smarties/tree/3.0/fonts/hangul/serif |
| |
| When building HarfBuzz with experimental features enabled, you can test |
| the “smarties” font with a sample character like this: |
| |
| $ hb-view butchered-hangul-serif-smarties-variable.ttf -u AE01 --variations=wght=700 |
| |
| (Behdad Esfahbod) |
| |
| - The HarfBuzz subsetter can now drop axes by pinning them to specific values |
| (also referred to as instancing). There are a couple of restrictions |
| currently: |
| |
| - Only works with TrueType (“glyf”) based fonts. “CFF2” fonts are not yet |
| supported. |
| - Only supports the case where all axes in a font are pinned. |
| |
| (Garret Rieger, Qunxin Liu) |
| |
| - Miscellaneous fixes and improvements. |

| Overview of changes leading to 4.0.0 |
| Tuesday, March 1, 2022 |
| ==================================== |
| - New public API to create subset plan and gather information on things like |
| glyph mappings in the final subset. The plan can then be passed on to perform |
| the subsetting operation. (Garret Rieger) |
| - Draw API for extracting glyph shapes have been extended and finalized and is |
| no longer an experimental API. The draw API supports glyf, CFF and CFF2 |
| glyph outlines tables, and applies variation settings set on the font as well |
| as synthetic slant. The new public API is not backward compatible with the |
| previous, non-public, experimental API. (Behdad Esfahbod) |
| - The hb-view tool will use HarfBuzz draw API to render the glyphs instead of |
| cairo-ft when compiled with Cairo 1.17.5 or newer, setting HB_DRAW |
| environment variable to 1 or 0 will force using or not use the draw API, |
| respectively. (Behdad Esfahbod) |
| - The hb-shape and hb-view tools now default to using HarfBuzz’s own font |
| loading functions (ot) instead of FreeType ones (ft). They also have a new |
| option, --font-slant, to apply synthetic slant to the font. (Behdad Esfahbod) |
| - HarfBuzz now supports more than 65535 (the OpenType limit) glyph shapes and |
| metrics. See https://github.com/be-fonts/boring-expansion-spec/issues/6 and |
| https://github.com/be-fonts/boring-expansion-spec/issues/7 for details. |
| (Behdad Esfahbod) |
| - New API to get the dominant horizontal baseline tag for a given script. |
| (Behdad Esfahbod) |
| - New API to get the baseline positions from the font, and synthesize missing |
| ones. As well as new API to get font metrics and synthesize missing ones. |
| (Matthias Clasen) |
| - Improvements to finding dependencies on Windows when building with Visual |
| Studio. (Chun-wei Fan) |
| - New buffer flag, HB_BUFFER_FLAG_PRODUCE_UNSAFE_TO_CONCAT, that must be set |
| during shaping for HB_GLYPH_FLAG_UNSAFE_TO_CONCAT flag to be reliably |
| produced. This is to limit the performance hit of producing this flag to when |
| it is actually needed. (Behdad Esfahbod) |
| - Documentation improvements. (Matthias Clasen) |

| ==================================== |
| - Added AAT shaping support (morx/kerx/trak). |
| Automatically used if GSUB/GPOS are not available respectively. |

| - hb-ft now locks underlying FT_Face during use. |
| |
| API changes: |
| |
| - Newly-created hb_font_t's now have our internal "hb-ot-font" |
| callbacks set on them, so they should work out of the box |
| without any callbacks set. If callbacks are set, everything |
| is back to what it was before, the fallback callbacks are |
| null. If you to get the internal implementation modified, |
| sub_font it. |
| |
| - New hb_font_funcs_set_nominal_glyphs_func() allows speeding |
| up character to glyph mapping. |
| |
| New API: |
| +HB_FEATURE_GLOBAL_START |

| Overview of changes leading to 1.8.8 |
| Tuesday, August 14, 2018 |
| ==================================== |
| - Fix hb-icu crash on architectures where compare_exchange_weak() can |
| fail falsely. This bug was introduced in 1.8.4. |
| https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=873568 |
| - More internal refactoring of atomic operations and singletons. |
| - API changes: |
| The following functions do NOT reference their return value before |
| returning: |
| * hb_unicode_funcs_get_default() |
| * hb_glib_get_unicode_funcs() |
| * hb_icu_get_unicode_funcs() |
| This is consistent with their naming ("get", instead of "reference") |
| as well as how they are used in the wild (ie. no one calls destroy() |
| on their return value.) |
| |

| the Igalia offices in A Coruña, Spain. Thanks Igalia for having |
| us! |
| |
| - Implement Unicode Arabic Mark Ordering Algorithm UTR#53. |
| |

| using new API hb_ft_font_changed(). |
| |
| - More Graphite backend RTL fixes. |
| |
| - Fix caching of variable font shaping plans. |
| |
| - hb-view / hb-shape now accept following new arguments: |
| |
| o --unicodes: takes a list of hex numbers that represent Unicode |
| codepoints. |
| |
| New API: |

| |
| Overview of changes leading to 1.5.1 |
| Tuesday, September 5, 2017 |
| ==================================== |
| |
| - Fix "unsafe-to-break" in fallback shaping and other corner cases. |
| All our tests pass with --verify now, meaning unsafe-to-break API |
| works as expected. |
| - Add --unicodes to hb-view / hb-shape. |
| - [indic] Treat Consonant_With_Stacker as consonant. This will need |
| further tweaking. |
| - hb_buffer_diff() tweaks. |
| |
| |
| Overview of changes leading to 1.5.0 |
| Wednesday, August 23, 2017 |
| ==================================== |
| |
| - Misc new API, for appending a buffer to another, and for comparing |
| contents of two buffers for types of differences. |
| |
| - New "unsafe-to-break" API. Can be used to speed up reshaping |
| in line-breaking situations. Essentially, after shaping, it returns |
| positions in the input string (some of the cluster boundaries) that |
| are "safe to break" in that if the text is segmented at that position |
| and two sides reshaped and concatenated, the shaping result is |
| exactly the same as shaping the text in one piece. |
| |
| hb-view and hb-shape and hb-shape now take --verify, which verifies |
| the above property. |
| |
| Some corner cases of the implementation are still not quite working. |
| Those will be fixed in subsequent releases. |
| |
| - New API: |
| |
| hb_buffer_append() |
| |
| hb_glyph_flags_t |
| HB_GLYPH_FLAG_UNSAFE_TO_BREAK |

| Overview of changes leading to 1.4.1 |
| Thursday, January 5, 2017 |
| ==================================== |
| |
| - Always build and use UCDN for Unicode data by default. |
| Reduces dependence on version of Unicode data in glib, |
| specially in the Windows bundles we are shipping, which |
| have very old glib. |
| |
| |
| Overview of changes leading to 1.4.0 |
| Thursday, January 5, 2017 |
| ==================================== |
| |
| - Merged "OpenType GX" branch which adds core of support for |
| OpenType 1.8 Font Variations. To that extent, the relevant |
| new API is: |
| |
| New API: |
| hb_font_set_var_coords_normalized() |
| |
| with supporting API: |
| |
| New API: |
| HB_OT_LAYOUT_NO_VARIATIONS_INDEX |
| hb_ot_layout_table_find_feature_variations() |
| hb_ot_layout_feature_with_variations_get_lookups() |
| hb_shape_plan_create2() |
| hb_shape_plan_create_cached2() |
| |
| Currently variations in GSUB/GPOS/GDEF are fully supported, |
| and no other tables are supported. In particular, fvar/avar |
| are NOT supported, hence the hb_font_set_var_coords_normalized() |
| taking normalized coordinates. API to take design coordinates |
| will be added in the future. |
| |
| HVAR/VVAR/MVAR support will also be added to hb-ot-font in the |
| future. |
| |
| - Fix regression in GDEF glyph class processing. |
| - Add decompositions for Chakma, Limbu, and Balinese in USE shaper. |
| - Misc fixes. |
| |
| |
| Overview of changes leading to 1.3.4 |
| Monday, December 5, 2016 |
| ==================================== |
| |
| - Fix vertical glyph origin in hb-ot-font. |
| - Implement CBDT/CBLC color font glyph extents in hb-ot-font. |
| |
| |
| Overview of changes leading to 1.3.3 |
| Wednesday, September 28, 2016 |
| ==================================== |
| |
| - Implement parsing of OpenType MATH table. |
| New API: |
| HB_OT_TAG_MATH |
| HB_OT_MATH_SCRIPT |
| hb_ot_math_constant_t |
| hb_ot_math_kern_t |
| hb_ot_math_glyph_variant_t |
| hb_ot_math_glyph_part_flags_t |
| hb_ot_math_glyph_part_t |
| hb_ot_math_has_data |
| hb_ot_math_get_constant |
| hb_ot_math_get_glyph_italics_correction |
| hb_ot_math_get_glyph_top_accent_attachment |
| hb_ot_math_get_glyph_kerning |
| hb_ot_math_is_glyph_extended_shape |
| hb_ot_math_get_glyph_variants |
| hb_ot_math_get_min_connector_overlap |
| hb_ot_math_get_glyph_assembly |
| |
| |
| Overview of changes leading to 1.3.2 |
| Wednesday, September 27, 2016 |
| ==================================== |
| |
| - Fix build of hb-coretext on older OS X versions. |
| |
| |
| Overview of changes leading to 1.3.1 |
| Wednesday, September 7, 2016 |
| ==================================== |
| |
| - Blacklist bad GDEF of more fonts (Padauk). |
| - More CoreText backend crash fixes with OS X 10.9.5. |
| - Misc fixes. |
| |
| |
| Overview of changes leading to 1.3.0 |
| Thursday, July 21, 2016 |
| ==================================== |
| |
| - Update to Unicode 9.0.0 |
| - Move Javanese from Indic shaper to Universal Shaping Engine. |
| - Allow MultipleSubst to delete a glyph (matching Windows engine). |

| - Implement symbol fonts (cmap 3.0.0) in hb-ft and hb-ot-font. |
| - Blacklist bad GDEF of more fonts (Tahoma & others). |
| - Misc fixes. |
| |
| |
| Overview of changes leading to 1.2.7 |
| Monday, May 2, 2016 |
| ==================================== |
| |
| - Blacklist another version of Times New Roman (Bold) Italic from Windows 7. |
| - Fix Mongolian Free Variation Selectors shaping with certain fonts. |
| - Fix Tibetan shorthand contractions shaping. |
| - Improved list of language tag mappings. |
| - Unbreak build on Windows CE. |
| - Make 'glyf' table loading lazy in hb-ot-font. |
| |
| |
| Overview of changes leading to 1.2.6 |
| Friday, April 8, 2016 |
| ==================================== |
| |
| - Blacklist GDEF table of another set of Times New Roman (Bold) Italic. |
| - DirectWrite backend improvements. Note: DirectWrite backend is |
| exclusively for our internal testing and should NOT be used in any |
| production system whatsoever. |
| |
| |
| Overview of changes leading to 1.2.5 |
| Monday, April 4, 2016 |
| ==================================== |
| |
| - Fix GDEF mark-filtering-set, which was broken in 1.2.3. |
| |
| |
| Overview of changes leading to 1.2.4 |
| Thursday, March 17, 2016 |
| ==================================== |
| |
| - Synthesize GDEF glyph class for any glyph that does not have one in GDEF. |
| I really hope we don't discover broken fonts that shape badly with this |
| change. |
| - Misc build and other minor fixes. |
| - API changes: |
| - Added HB_NDEBUG. It's fine for production systems to define this to |
| disable high-overhead debugging checks. However, I also reduced the |
| overhead of those checks, so it's a non-issue right now. You can |
| forget it. Just not defining anything at all is fine. |
| |
| |
| Overview of changes leading to 1.2.3 |
| Thursday, February 25, 2016 |
| ==================================== |
| |
| - Blacklist GDEF table of certain versions of Times New Roman (Bold) Italic, |
| due to bug in glyph class of ASCII double-quote character. This should |
| address "regression" introduced in 1.2.0 when we switched mark zeroing |
| in most shapers from BY_UNICODE_LATE to BY_GDEF_LATE. |
| This fourth release in a week should finally stabilize things... |
| |
| - hb-ot-font's get_glyph() implementation saw some optimizations. Though, |
| might be really hard to measure in real-world situations. |
| |
| - Also, two rather small API changes: |
| |
| We now disable some time-consuming internal bookkeeping if built with NDEBUG |
| defined. This is a first time that we use NDEBUG to disable debug code. If |
| there exist production systems that do NOT want to enable NDEBUG, please let |
| me know and I'll add HB_NDEBUG. |
| |
| Added get_nominal_glyph() and get_variation_glyph() instead of get_glyph() |
| |
| New API: |
| - hb_font_get_nominal_glyph_func_t |
| - hb_font_get_variation_glyph_func_t |
| - hb_font_funcs_set_nominal_glyph_func() |
| - hb_font_funcs_set_variation_glyph_func() |
| - hb_font_get_nominal_glyph() |
| - hb_font_get_variation_glyph() |
| |
| Deprecated API: |
| - hb_font_get_glyph_func_t |
| - hb_font_funcs_set_glyph_func() |
| |
| Clients that implement their own font-funcs are encouraged to replace |
| their get_glyph() implementation with a get_nominal_glyph() and |
| get_variation_glyph() pair. The variation version can assume that |
| variation_selector argument is not zero. Old (deprecated) functions |
| will continue working indefinitely using internal gymnastics; it is |
| just more efficient to use the new functions. |
| |
| |
| Overview of changes leading to 1.2.2 |
| Wednesday, February 24, 2016 |
| ==================================== |
| |
| - Fix regression with mark positioning with fonts that have |
| non-zero mark advances. This was introduced in 1.2.0 while |
| trying to make mark and cursive attachments to work together. |
| I have partially reverted that, so this version is much more |
| like what we had before. All clients who updated to 1.2.0 |
| should update to this version. |
| |
| |
| Overview of changes leading to 1.2.1 |
| Tuesday, February 23, 2016 |
| ==================================== |
| |
| - CoreText: Fix bug with wrong scale if font scale was changed later. |
| https://github.com/libass/libass/issues/212 |
| - CoreText: Drastically speed up font initialization. |
| - CoreText: Fix tiny leak. |
| - Group ZWJ/ZWNJ with previous syllable under cluster-level=0. |
| https://github.com/harfbuzz/harfbuzz/issues/217 |
| - Add test/shaping/README.md about how to add tests to the suite. |
| |
| |
| Overview of changes leading to 1.2.0 |
| Friday, February 19, 2016 |
| ==================================== |
| |
| - Fix various issues (hangs mostly) in case of memory allocation failure. |
| - Change mark zeroing types of most shapers from BY_UNICODE_LATE to |
| BY_GDEF_LATE. This seems to be what Uniscribe does. |
| - Change mark zeroing of USE shaper from NONE to BY_GDEF_EARLY. That's |
| what Windows does. |
| - Allow GPOS cursive connection on marks, and fix the interaction with |
| mark attachment. This work resulted in some changes to how mark |
| attachments work. See: |
| https://github.com/harfbuzz/harfbuzz/issues/211 |
| https://github.com/harfbuzz/harfbuzz/commit/86c68c7a2c971efe8e35b1f1bd99401dc8b688d2 |
| - Graphite2 shaper: improved negative advance handling (eg. Nastaliq). |
| - Add nmake-based build system for Windows. |
| - Minor speedup. |
| - Misc. improvements. |
| |
| |
| Overview of changes leading to 1.1.3 |
| Monday, January 11, 2016 |
| ==================================== |
| |
| - Ported Indic shaper to Unicode 8.0 data. |
| - Universal Shaping Engine fixes. |
| - Speed up CoreText shaper when font fallback happens in CoreText. |
| - Documentation improvements, thanks to Khaled Hosny. |
| - Very rough directwrite shaper for testing, thanks to Ebrahim Byagowi. |
| - Misc bug fixes. |
| - New API: |
| |
| * Font extents: |
| hb_font_extents_t |
| hb_font_get_font_extents_func_t |
| hb_font_get_font_h_extents_func_t |
| hb_font_get_font_v_extents_func_t |
| hb_font_funcs_set_font_h_extents_func |
| hb_font_funcs_set_font_v_extents_func |
| hb_font_get_h_extents |
| hb_font_get_v_extents |
| hb_font_get_extents_for_direction |
| |
| * Buffer message (aka debug): |
| hb_buffer_message_func_t |
| hb_buffer_set_message_func() |
| Actual message protocol to be fleshed out later. |
| |
| |
| Overview of changes leading to 1.1.2 |
| Wednesday, November 26, 2015 |
| ==================================== |
| |
| - Fix badly-broken fallback shaper that affected terminology. |
| https://github.com/harfbuzz/harfbuzz/issues/187 |
| - Fix y_scaling in Graphite shaper. |
| - API changes: |
| * An unset glyph_h_origin() function in font-funcs now (sensibly) |
| implies horizontal origin at 0,0. Ie, the nil callback returns |
| true instead of false. As such, implementations that have a |
| glyph_h_origin() that simply returns true, can remove that function |
| with HarfBuzz >= 1.1.2. This results in a tiny speedup. |
| |
| |
| Overview of changes leading to 1.1.1 |
| Wednesday, November 24, 2015 |
| ==================================== |
| |
| - Build fixes, specially for hb-coretext. |
| |
| |
| Overview of changes leading to 1.1.0 |
| Wednesday, November 18, 2015 |
| ==================================== |
| |
| - Implement 'stch' stretch feature for Syriac Abbreviation Mark. |
| https://github.com/harfbuzz/harfbuzz/issues/141 |
| - Disable use of decompose_compatibility() callback. |
| - Implement "shaping" of various Unicode space characters, even |
| if the font does not support them. |
| https://github.com/harfbuzz/harfbuzz/issues/153 |
| - If font does not support U+2011 NO-BREAK HYPHEN, fallback to |
| U+2010 HYPHEN. |
| - Changes resulting from libFuzzer continuous fuzzing: |
| * Reject font tables that need more than 8 edits, |
| * Bound buffer growth during shaping to 32x, |
| * Fix assertions and other issues at OOM / buffer max-growth. |
| - Misc fixes and optimizations. |
| - API changes: |
| * All fonts created with hb_font_create() now inherit from |
| (ie. have parent) hb_font_get_empty(). |
| |
| |
| Overview of changes leading to 1.0.6 |
| Thursday, October 15, 2015 |
| ==================================== |
| |
| - Reduce max nesting level in OT lookups from 8 to 6. |
| Should not affect any real font as far as I know. |
| - Fix memory access issue in ot-font. |
| - Revert default load-flags of fonts created using hb_ft_font_create() |
| back to FT_LOAD_DEFAULT|FT_LOAD_NO_HINTING. This was changed in |
| last release (1.0.5), but caused major issues, so revert. |
| https://github.com/harfbuzz/harfbuzz/issues/143 |
| |
| |
| Overview of changes leading to 1.0.5 |
| Tuesday, October 13, 2015 |
| ==================================== |
| |
| - Fix multiple memory access bugs discovered using libFuzzer. |
| https://github.com/harfbuzz/harfbuzz/issues/139 |
| Everyone should upgrade to this version as soon as possible. |
| We now have continuous fuzzing set up, to avoid issues like |
| these creeping in again. |
| - Misc fixes. |
| |
| - New API: |
| * hb_font_set_parent(). |
| * hb_ft_font_[sg]et_load_flags() |
| The default flags for fonts created using hb_ft_font_create() |
| has changed to default to FT_LOAD_DEFAULT now. Previously it |
| was defaulting to FT_LOAD_DFEAULT|FT_LOAD_NO_HINTING. |
| |
| - API changes: |
| * Fonts now default to units-per-EM as their scale, instead of 0. |
| * hb_font_create_sub_font() does NOT make parent font immutable |
| anymore. hb_font_make_immutable() does. |
| |
| |
| Overview of changes leading to 1.0.4 |
| Wednesday, September 30, 2015 |
| ==================================== |
| |
| - Fix minor out-of-bounds read error. |

| - Bump version to 1.0.0. The soname was NOT bumped. |
| |
| |
| Overview of changes leading to 0.9.42 |
| Thursday, July 26, 2015 |
| ===================================== |
| |
| - New API to allow for retrieving finer-grained cluster |
| mappings if the client desires to handle them. Default |
| behavior is unchanged. |
| - Fix cluster merging when removing default-ignorables. |

| hb-shape / hb-view --cluster-level |
| |
| |
| Overview of changes leading to 0.9.41 |
| Thursday, June 18, 2015 |
| ===================================== |
| |

| |
| - Another hb-coretext crasher fix. Ouch! |
| - Happy Norouz! |
| |
| |
| Overview of changes leading to 0.9.39 |
| Wednesday, March 4, 2015 |
| ===================================== |
| |
| - Critical hb-coretext fixes. |
| - Optimizations and refactoring; no functional change |
| expected. |
| - Misc build fixes. |
| |
| |
| Overview of changes leading to 0.9.38 |
| Friday, January 23, 2015 |
| ===================================== |
| |
| - Fix minor out-of-bounds access in Indic shaper. |
| - Change New Tai Lue shaping engine from South-East Asian to default, |
| reflecting change in Unicode encoding model. |
| - Add hb-shape --font-size. Can take up to two numbers for separate |
| x / y size. |
| - Fix CoreText and FreeType scale issues with negative scales. |
| - Reject blobs larger than 2GB. This might break some icu-le-hb clients |
| that need security fixes. See: |
| http://www.icu-project.org/trac/ticket/11450 |
| - Avoid accessing font tables during face destruction, in casce rogue |
| clients released face data already. |
| - Fix up gobject-introspection a bit. Python bindings kinda working. |
| See README.python. |
| - Misc fixes. |
| - API additions: |
| hb_ft_face_create_referenced() |
| hb_ft_font_create_referenced() |
| |
| |
| Overview of changes leading to 0.9.37 |
| Wednesday, December 17, 2014 |
| ===================================== |
| |
| - Fix out-of-bounds access in Context lookup format 3. |
| - Indic: Allow ZWJ/ZWNJ before syllable modifiers. |
| |
| |
| Overview of changes leading to 0.9.36 |
| Thursday, November 20, 2014 |
| ===================================== |
| |
| - First time that three months went by without a release since |
| 0.9.2 was released on August 10, 2012! |
| - Fix performance bug in hb_ot_collect_glyphs(): |
| https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1090869 |
| - Add basic vertical-text support to hb-ot-font. |
| - Misc build fixes. |
| |
| |
| Overview of changes leading to 0.9.35 |
| Saturday, August 13, 2014 |
| ===================================== |
| |
| - Fix major shape-plan caching bug when more than one shaper were |
| provided to hb_shape_full() (as exercised by XeTeX). |
| http://www.mail-archive.com/debian-bugs-dist@lists.debian.org/msg1246370.html |
| - Fix Arabic fallback shaping regression. This was broken in 0.9.32. |
| - Major hb-coretext fixes. That backend is complete now, including |
| respecing buffer direction and language, down to vertical writing. |
| - Build fixes for Windows CE. Should build fine now. |
| - Misc fixes: |
| Use atexit() only if it's safe to call from shared library |
| https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=82246 |
| Mandaic had errors in its Unicode Joining_Type |
| https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=82306 |
| - API changes: |
| |
| * hb_buffer_clear_contents() does not reset buffer flags now. |
| |
| After 763e5466c0a03a7c27020e1e2598e488612529a7, one doesn't |
| need to set flags for different pieces of text. The flags now |
| are something the client sets up once, depending on how it |
| actually uses the buffer. As such, don't clear it in |
| clear_contents(). |
| |
| I don't expect any changes to be needed to any existing client. |
| |
| |
| Overview of changes leading to 0.9.34 |
| Saturday, August 2, 2014 |
| ===================================== |
| |
| - hb_feature_from_string() now accepts CSS font-feature-settings format. |
| - As a result, hb-shape / hb-view --features also accept CSS-style strings. |
| Eg, "'liga' off" is accepted now. |
| - Add old-spec Myanmar shaper: |
| https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=81775 |
| - Don't apply 'calt' in Hangul shaper. |
| - Fix mark advance zeroing for Hebrew shaper: |
| https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=76767 |
| - Implement Windows-1256 custom Arabic shaping. Only built on Windows, |
| and requires help from get_glyph(). Used by Firefox. |
| https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1045139 |
| - Disable 'liga' in vertical text. |
| - Build fixes. |
| - API changes: |
| |
| * Make HB_BUFFER_FLAG_BOT/EOT easier to use. |
| |
| Previously, we expected users to provide BOT/EOT flags when the |
| text *segment* was at paragraph boundaries. This meant that for |
| clients that provide full paragraph to HarfBuzz (eg. Pango), they |
| had code like this: |
| |
| hb_buffer_set_flags (hb_buffer, |
| (item_offset == 0 ? HB_BUFFER_FLAG_BOT : 0) | |
| (item_offset + item_length == paragraph_length ? |
| HB_BUFFER_FLAG_EOT : 0)); |
| |
| hb_buffer_add_utf8 (hb_buffer, |
| paragraph_text, paragraph_length, |
| item_offset, item_length); |
| |
| After this change such clients can simply say: |
| |
| hb_buffer_set_flags (hb_buffer, |
| HB_BUFFER_FLAG_BOT | HB_BUFFER_FLAG_EOT); |
| |
| hb_buffer_add_utf8 (hb_buffer, |
| paragraph_text, paragraph_length, |
| item_offset, item_length); |
| |
| Ie, HarfBuzz itself checks whether the segment is at the beginning/end |
| of the paragraph. Clients that only pass item-at-a-time to HarfBuzz |
| continue not setting any flags whatsoever. |
| |
| Another way to put it is: if there's pre-context text in the buffer, |
| HarfBuzz ignores the BOT flag. If there's post-context, it ignores |
| EOT flag. |
| |
| |
| Overview of changes leading to 0.9.33 |
| Tuesday, July 22, 2014 |
| ===================================== |
| |
| - Turn off ARabic 'cswh' feature that was accidentally turned on. |
| - Add HB_TAG_MAX_SIGNED. |
| - Make hb_face_make_immutable() really make face immutable! |
| - Windows build fixes. |
| |
| |
| Overview of changes leading to 0.9.32 |
| Thursday, July 17, 2014 |
| ===================================== |
| |
| - Apply Arabic shaping features in spec order exactly. |
| - Another fix for Mongolian free variation selectors. |
| - For non-Arabic scripts in Arabic shaper apply 'rlig' and 'calt' |
| together. |
| - Minor adjustment to U+FFFD logic. |
| - Fix hb-coretext build. |
| |
| |
| Overview of changes leading to 0.9.31 |
| Wednesday, July 16, 2014 |
| ===================================== |
| |
| - Only accept valid UTF-8/16/32; we missed many cases before. |
| - Better shaping of invalid UTF-8/16/32. Falls back to |
| U+FFFD REPLACEMENT CHARACTER now. |
| - With all changes in this release, the buffer will contain fully |
| valid Unicode after hb_buffer_add_utf8/16/32 no matter how |
| broken the input is. This can be overridden though. See below. |
| - Fix Mongolian Variation Selectors for fonts without GDEF. |
| - Fix minor invalid buffer access. |
| - Accept zh-Hant and zh-Hans language tags. hb_ot_tag_to_language() |
| now uses these instead of private tags. |
| - Build fixes. |
| - New API: |
| * hb_buffer_add_codepoints(). This does what hb_buffer_add_utf32() |
| used to do, ie. no validity check on the input at all. add_utf32 |
| now replaces invalid Unicode codepoints with the replacement |
| character (see below). |
| * hb_buffer_set_replacement_codepoint() |
| * hb_buffer_get_replacement_codepoint() |
| Previously, in hb_buffer_add_utf8 and hb_buffer_add_utf16, when |
| we detected broken input, we replaced that with (hb_codepoint_t)-1. |
| This has changed to use U+FFFD now, but can be changed using these |
| new API. |
| |

| Tuesday, May 28, 2013 |
| ===================================== |
| |
| New build system: |
| |
| - All unneeded code is all disabled by default, |
| |
| - Uniscribe and CoreText shapers can be enabled with their --with options, |
| |
| - icu_le and old shapers cannot be enabled for now, |
| |
| - glib, freetype, and cairo will be detected automatically. |
| They can be force on/off'ed with their --with options, |
| |
| - icu and graphite2 are default off, can be enabled with their --with |
| options, |
| |
| Moreover, ICU support is now build into a separate library: |
| libharfbuzz-icu.so, and a new harfbuzz-icu.pc is shipped for it. |
| Distros can enable ICU now without every application on earth |
| getting linked to via libharfbuzz.so. |
| |
| For distros I recommend that they make sure they are building --with-glib |
| --with-freetype --with-cairo, --with-icu, and optionally --with-graphite2; |
| And package harfbuzz and harfbuzz-icu separately. |

| Thursday, February 25, 2013 |
| ===================================== |

| |
| API changes: |
| - hb_shape() and related APIs now abort if buffer direction is |
| HB_DIRECTION_INVALID. Previously, hb_shape() was calling |
| hb_buffer_guess_segment_properties() on the buffer before |
| shaping. The heuristics in that function are fragile. If the |
| user really wants the old behvaior, they can call that function |
| right before calling hb_shape() to get the old behavior. |
| - hb_blob_create_sub_blob() always creates sub-blob with |
| HB_MEMORY_MODE_READONLY. See comments for the reason. |
