- fix uninitialized pointer "FT_STREAM stream" in function
FT_Open_Face() which made fontforge crash while trying to apply
a workaround to the sazanami-fonts because fontforge called
FT_Open_Face() with 0 for the FT_Library argument and
then freetype crashed in FT_Stream_Free().
* Wed Jul 23 2008 mfabian@suse.de
- update to 2.3.7. Extract from the docs/CHANGES file:
• 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.]
• 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'.
• 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.
• 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.
• 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.

when using the CMEX fonts (by Peng Wu <pwu@novell.com>).
* Tue Jul 03 2007 mfabian@suse.de
- update to 2.3.5. Extract from the doc/CHANGES file:
• 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.
• 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.

- Bugzilla #275072: (from upstream CVS):
Check for negative number of points in contours. Problem
reported by Victor Stinner <victor.stinner@haypocalc.com>.
* Tue May 22 2007 mfabian@suse.de

- Bugzilla #273714: ('Â&frac;', 'Â&frac;', and 'Â&frac;' in "Albany AMT" are
rendered very badly): apply fix from upstream CVS, thanks
to Werner LEMBERG.
* Tue Apr 10 2007 mfabian@suse.de
- update to 2.3.4. Extract from the doc/CHANGES file:
• A serious bug in the handling of bitmap fonts (and bitmap
strikes of outline fonts) has been introduced in 2.3.3.
• 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 0 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.
• 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.
• A new demo program `ftdiff' has been added to compare
TrueType hinting, FreeType's auto hinting, and rendering
without hinting in three columns.
• 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.
