---------------------------------
After X-TT Project
---------------------------------
* Changes from 1.4.2rc1 to 1.4.2
- Added minor improvements.
* Changes from 1.4.1 to 1.4.2rc1
- Fixed several bugs of make_up_italic_bitmap() function.
- Changed the order of priority of mapIDRelations in JISX0208 and JISX0201
code converter. The windows ucs2 is given the highest priority for kochi-substitute
Japanese fonts.
- Fixed code relation in cc_jisx0208_to_std_ucs2() function.
(not 0x215d -> 0x00b1 but 0x215d -> 0x2212)
- Added minor improvements.
* Changes from 1.4.1rc1 to 1.4.1
- Added minor improvements.
* Changes from 1.4.0 to 1.4.1rc1
- Fixed an X server crash because of an inconsistency problem between XFree86
and X-TT(reported by Koike Kazuhiko).
- Improved fix to prevent NULL dereference when the font cache becomes full;
solution by allocation of a dummy area for bitmap.
* Changes from 1.4.0rc1 to 1.4.0
- Fixed an X server crash when using LucidaSansRegular.ttf
(reported by Koike Kazuhiko).
- Added U+20AC and U+00AE characters to KSCJOHABtoUCS2.c and
KSC5601toUCS2.c(Jungshik Shin).
- Added ksc5601.*-3 and ksx1001.*-3 to KSCJOHAB/main.c(Jungshik Shin).
* Changes from 1.4.0beta1 to 1.4.0rc1
- Improved fix for server crash that appears on Linux/PPC.
- Support for reverse `fc' specification. `fc=0xaa00-0xa0ff' means
specifying the ranges 0x0000-0xa0ff and 0xaa00-0xffff. This is
useful for GB18030 proportional fonts.
- Preparation for extending the encoding field of XLFD. The X-TT permits the
following additional XLFD format:
"-foo-foo-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-c-0-foo.2000-0.0"
"-foo-foo-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-c-0-foo.2000-0.1"
The last number can be used to indicate the plane number of a huge character set.
- Added patch for mktcapdir-0.5.4 and some ttfconf files suitable for X-TT
1.4.0.
- Other minor improvements.
* Changes from 1.3.0 on XF86-4.3.0 to 1.4.0beta1
- Improved fix to crashs caused when certain fonts (e.g. verdana.ttf)
are used; solution based on investigating the true nature of the problem.
- Improved performance based on the solution to the buffer overflow problem,
caused by exceeding the range of maxbounds.ascent/maxbounds.descent.
This problem occurred only when `-m-' spacing was used.
- Performance improvement of FreeTypeGetMetrics() function.
- New options for TTCap, `fc' and `fm': they enable the *extremely*
fast loading of big Japanese or unicode fonts with `-p-' in the
XLFD.
- Enhancements for `ds', `eb' and `bw' options.
- Using Embedded Bitmap with the option `eb=y' when Auto Italic is set.
- Trying to use TT_Load_Glyph_Bitmap() in get_metrics() when `bs'
option is not set.
- Extension of code converter modules for ARABIC, ARMSCII8,
BIG5HKSCS, GB18030, ISO8859.*, etc. (Pablo Saratxaga, James Su)
- Some other minor improvements.
* Changes from 1.3.0 to 1.3.0 on XF86-4.3.0
- Fixed an X server crash that appears on Linux/PPC, related to
invalid code converter module being loaded because of a broken
string comparison in xttcconv.c (Chisato Yamauchi, Daisuke
MASATSUNA).
- Fixed an X server crash caused by a NULL dereference when the font
cache becomes full (Chisato Yamauchi, tokeijikakenoringo).
- Increased the default font cache size so that it works better for
iso10646 (Hidetoshi Yamano-uchi, Chisato Yamauchi).
- Fixed an X-TT garbage-display problem when glyphs are
undefined for fixed width fonts (Hidetoshi Yamano-uchi,
Chisato Yamauchi).
- Fixed an X server crash caused by returning a NULL pointer for the
bitmap, even when the height was non-zero. The problem occurred
when using some specific fonts (eg. verdana.ttf) and loading huge
fonts. (Chisato Yamauchi).
- Fixed an X server crash caused by buffer overflow. The problem was
caused by glyph ascent/descent exceeding the range of
maxbounds.ascent/maxbounds.descent (Chisato Yamauchi, Masanori
Shimada).
