Version 2.13.3

IMPORTANT CHANGES

  • Some fields in the FT_Outline structure have been changed from signed to unsigned type, which better reflects the actual usage. It is also an additional means to protect against malformed input.

IMPORTANT BUG FIXES

  • Rare double-free crashes in the cache subsystem have been fixed.
  • Excessive stack allocation in the autohinter has been fixed.

MISCELLANEOUS

  • The B/W rasterizer has received a major upkeep that results in large performance improvements. The rendering speed has increased and even doubled for very complex glyphs.
  • If the new configuration option TT_CONFIG_OPTION_GPOS_KERNING is defined, FT_Get_Kerning understands rudimentary GPOS kerning (for TrueType fonts only). This is not enabled by default since its usage is very limited, mainly for legacy applications that have to support TrueType fonts automatically converted from 'kern' tables to GPOS kerning. If you need proper (GPOS) kerning support please use a higher-level library like HarfBuzz.
  • The internal structures PS_DesignMap and PS_Blend related to parsing of old Multiple Masters fonts have been removed from the public header file t1tables.h.
