Convert "block", "lfblock" and "rtblock" to mosaic graphics.
...
In Unicode, these will be unified with 6-cell mosaic graphics, so we
need to use the mosaic graphics system for them.

A few interesting characters from U+1FBxx.
...
That's the forthcoming "Graphics for Legacy Computing" block that will
finally have an official encoding of teletext mosaic graphics.

Add Cyrillic letters necessary for Serbian.
...
That's dje, je, lje, nje, tshe, and dzhe. Because I got an email from
Serbian Wikipedia.

Bump version number to 002.000.

I can't think of anything else I need to do for it.

Slight change to U+241B SYMBOL FOR ESCAPE.
...
The "C" is now more obviously a "C" and not a "(".

Rationalise widths of Bedstead variants.
...
They are all now sensible fractions of the standard width.
Extra Condensed has changed from 62/100 to 5/8.
Condensed has changed from 76/100 to 3/4.
Semi Condensed has changed from 88/100 to 7/8.
Extended has changed from 124/100 to 5/4.
This makes rather a lot of dimensions non-integer, but the only
significant ones are the "palt" width adjustments, and I think that's
an acceptable tradeoff for making the standard widths more sensible.

When printfing dimensions, cast them to the right type first.
...
That way, if floating-point numbers turn up, they won't get
interpreted as ints and cause a horrid mess.

A few more forms of transport.

email, here's a glyph for that and also U+1F680 ROCKET and U+1F682
STEAM LOCOMOTIVE.

Move stroke on dotless j with stroke glyphs down by one pixel.
...
This makes them match the lower-case "f" of which these characters
were originally turned versions, and also makes U+0284 LATIN SMALL
LETTER DOTLESS J WITH STROKE AND HOOK more visually distinct from
U+0192 LATIN SMALL LETTER F WITH HOOK.

Slight tweak to "AE": move crossbar of "A" part down 1 pixel.
...
That puts it in the same place as in the "A" proper, and aligns with
the advice here:

"The crossbars are not usually aligned in typographic typefaces ..."

Two-level brace and summation characters.

The braces are a compromise, since each glyph has to be usable as both
the top and bottom half of a brace.

Add "fi" and "fl" ligatures.

Not actually enabled as ligatures, since that would be silly, but some
character sets want them as presentation forms.

I keep seeing it in Commons filenames written in Azerbaijani.

It's part of Mac Roman, and probably some other interesting encodings.

Subset and superset symbols.

The proper subset symbol is only slightly different from lower-case C,
but I think that's inevitable.

c9d168e234
Large mathematical operators: summation, product, and integral.

All of these span the full height of the character cell, since that way
they'll work equally badly with subscripts and superscripts.

75e04065fb
A tolerable perthousand sign.
...
I've made so many bad attempts at this character that this feels like
a win. Also, it's an annoyingly common character in character sets
I'd like to cover.

Set the "H" flag on all glyphs in SFD files.

This turns out to be all it takes to get FontForge to autohint fonts
on generation. FontForge's autohinter isn't perfect, but it's pretty
good and certainly better than anything else I've got.

Clip character names to boxes in glyph complement.
...
Ideally, I'd do something more elegant with over-long glyph names, but
at least keeping them in the boxes doesn't look terrible.
2017-08-09 22:23:48 +01:00
Ben Harris
6a099893dd
Add U+0149, "napostrophe".
...
That's the only character that Font Library says is missing for
supporting Afrikaans, so I may as well implement it even if Unicode
does say its use is strongly discouraged.

Emit open contours starting at the beginning.
...
Before this change, emit_path() would emit contours starting at
whichever point was earliest in the points array. That was fine for
closed contours, but it meant the open contours tended to be emitted
in multiple parts. Now it first searches for start points of open
contours and emits those, and then does what it used to do to emit the
remaining (closed) ones. This has no effect (other than to slow
things down a bit) for fully-closed paths like those in outline
versions of Bedstead, but it makes the stroked ones much cleaner. Now
a contour can only end at a tip or at a 3-way junction.

Extract code to emit a single contour from emit_path().

I want to make emit_path() more complex, so pulling out this obvious
unit seems wise.
