2014-05-19Fix 694952: Limit Type 3 font glyph bbox size.Tor Andersson
Don't let a glyph's bbox be too much bigger than the font bbox.
2014-02-25Bug 694851: pass more information to fz_load_system_fontSimon Bünzli
The following changes allow font providers to make better choices WRT what font to provide and under what circumstances: * bold and italic flags are passed in so that implementors can decide themselves whether to ask for simulated boldening/italicising if a font claims not to be bold/italic * is_substitute is replaced with needs_exact_metrics to make the meaning of this argument hopefully clearer (that argument is set only for PDF fonts without a FontDescriptor) * the font name is always passed as requested by the document instead of the cleaned name for the standard 14 fonts which allows distinguishing e.g. Symbol and Symbol,Bold
2014-02-17Add fz_transform_point_xy to simplify transforming a point.Tor Andersson
Many times, the idiom p.x = x; p.y = y; fz_transform_point() is used. This function should simplify that use case by both initializing and transforming the point in one call.
2014-02-04Improve glyph bounding, outlining and SVG output text.Robin Watts
Luiz Henrique de Figueiredo reports that glyphs output from the SVG device contain 'lumpy' outlines. Investigation reveals that this is because the current code extracts the outlines from freetype at unit scale, and then relies on SVG to scale them up. Unfortunately, freetype insists on working in integer maths, so any sort of scaling runs the risk of distorting the outlines. The fix is to change the way we call freetype; we now request an 'UNSCALED' char, and set the required size to be the design size. We then transform the results in the floating point domain ourself. This cures the lumpy outlines, but reveals a second problem, namely that the bbox given for characters is inaccurate (and sometimes too small). Investigation shows that this is again caused by freetypes scaling, so we apply the same trick; ask for the glyph without scaling (as far as possible), and then scale the results down. We also take care to spot the 'ft_hint' flag in the font. If set this indicates that hinting must be performed to ensure that the returned outlines are sane. We therefore take note of this when calculating both bbox and outlines. This means that 'tricky' fonts such as dynalab ones now render correctly. This produces many changes in the bitmaps, the vast majority of which are neutral. The ones that aren't are all progressions.
2014-01-13Bug 694851: enhance fz_load_system_fontSimon Bünzli
For SumatraPDF, the following changes are required: * fz_load_system_font is called from pdf_load_builtin_font as well so that Arial, Courier New, etc. can be loaded from the system instead of their Nimbus replacements. In order to distinguish between calls from pdf_load_builtin_font and pdf_load_substitute_font, an is_substitute argument is added. * fz_load_system_cjk_font is added and called from pdf_load_substitute_cjk_font so that a better replacement font can be loaded instead of DroidSansFallback. * Both fz_load_system_font and fz_load_system_cjk_font return fz_font* instead of fz_buffer* so that implementers aren't required to load fonts into memory (SumatraPDF uses fz_new_font_from_file for system fonts). In addition to that, fz_load_system_font_func is renamed to fz_load_system_font_funcs since it now accepts two functions, and the PDF_ROS_* constants are renamed to FZ_ADOBE_* (collection names aren't passed as const char* so that implementers know which collections to expect). For convenience, fz_load_*_font also never throws since currently all callers have further fallbacks available.

Simple typo. Thanks to Alexander Monakov for spotting this.
2013-11-27track font path in fz_fontSimon Bünzli
ft_file was removed in a2c945506ea2a2b58edbde84124094c6b4f69eac even though it might still be needed by downstream consumers (such as SumatraPDF) for allowing devices to load fonts again when a font has been loaded by fz_new_font_from_file which doesn't maintain a buffer.
2013-11-26Add const keyword to some font function parameters.Tor Andersson

2013-10-09SVG: Support Type3 fonts and stroked fonts.Robin Watts
2013-09-13Fix various compile warnings spotted by the cluster.Robin Watts
2013-09-02Add glyph rendering routines that return fz_pixmaps rather than fz_glyphs.Robin Watts
These do no caching, and are intended to be useful for the opengl device.
2013-09-02Be smarter when quantising sub pixel positions for glyphs.Robin Watts
For large glyphs, sub pixel positioning is supremely unimportant. Even for smaller glyphs, we don't need 5*5 possible sub pixel positions. Base the degree of sub pixel quantisation on the size of the glyphs. This should result in better cache use. We push all the glyph sub positioning logic into fz_render_glyph (and fz_render_stroked_glyph). This simplifies the calling code. We also tweak fz_render_glyph so that it updates the transform it is called with to reflect the sub pixel positioning. This solves various problems: Firstly, we can round positions both up and down to achieve a smaller net displacement (e.g. (0.99, 0.99) can go to (1,1) rather than (0.75, 0.75) if we have a subpixel position resolution of 1/4 pixels). Secondly, glyphs that are drawn from outlines will have exactly the same subpixel changes applied. This is unlikely to be noticable, but it does mean that baselines should avoid having any shifts in them. Finally, it enables us to avoid lots of unnecessary copying of matrices, hopefully reducing overhead.
2013-08-30Use RLE coding scheme for glyph bitmaps.Robin Watts
Rather than generating fz_pixmaps for glyphs, we generate fz_glyphs. fz_glyphs can either contain a pixmap, or an RLEd representation (if it's a mask, and it's smaller). Should take less memory in the cache, and should be faster to plot.
2013-08-28fix memory leaksSimon Bünzli
* If fz_alpha_from_gray throws in fz_render_t3_glyph, then glyph is leaked. * If fz_new_image throws in pdf_load_image_imp, then colorspace and mask are leaked. * pdf_copy_pattern_gstate overwrites font and softmask without dropping them first.
2013-07-01Bug 694382: Fix use-after-free due to type3 fonts.Robin Watts
Thanks to zeniko for spotting the problem here. Type 3 fonts contain a reference to the resources objects required to render the glyphs. Traditionally these have been freed when the font is freed. Unfortunately, after recent changes, freeing a PDF object requires the pdf_document concerned to still exist. While in most cases the type 3 resources are not used after we have converted the type3 glyphs to display lists, this is not always the case. For uncachable Type 3 glyphs (such as those that do not completely define elements in the graphics state that they use, such as color or line width), we end up running the glyphs at interpretation time. [ Interpretation time = when doing a direct render on the main thread, or when creating a display list - so also on the main thread. No multi-threading issues with file access here. ] The fix implemented here is for each pdf document to keep a list of the type3 fonts it has created, and to 'decouple' them from the document when the document is destroyed. The sole effect of this decoupling is to remove the resources (and the PDF operator buffers) from the font. These are only ever used during interpretation, and no further interpretations are possible without the document being alive anyway, so this should have no net effect on operation, other than allowing cleanup to proceed cleanly later on.
