f7dfd2fd22 Lots of IPA characters.
Specifically, I think this is everything from Appendix 2, Table 3 of
the Handbook of the IPA except for the deprecated ligatures.  Many
letters would probably benefit from some fettling.

Because I've been using Japanese Web sites recently.

8d599b29af Add support for mosaic graphics.
These are generated without smoothing, and this is done
algorithmically, bypassing the usual character-rendering code.  The
characters are put in the private use area, in the locations where
zvbi uses for them, on the grounds that we have to put them somewhere.

Mosaic graphics characters are not yet unified with the block graphics
characters in the U+2580 range.

2be91c231f Make the Bedstead Web page unambiguously XHTML.
It was syntactically XHTML already, but various things suggested that it
might be HTML instead.  Now it has a proper content-type in Apache, a
filename that Firefox can understand when reading from a local file, and
for good measure a <meta> tag.  That should keep everyone except possibly
Lynx users happy.

7f184003e7 CSS: use "normal" rather than explicitly disabling "palt".
This makes it clearer that the whole of font-feature-settings is
overridden.

f5313eaa02 On second thoughts, don't set the sub/superscript X offsets.
I think it'll cause more trouble than it's worth.

ab75eedf7c Correct sign of OS2SubYOff.
Microsoft's documentation says it's the offset below the baseline, as
opposed to above for superscript.

163446d3fa Extra OS/2 metrics.
Largely for the purposes of getting the strikeout right.

dd5a4f2cd4 Add endash.
If I'm going to render Bedstead's Web page in Bedstead, it had better
have all the glyphs I use on that page.
2016-11-06 22:17:43 +00:00

bb3d8b7cbe Put the whole Web page into Bedstead.
With "palt" enabled, it looks fairly good.

a8223efacf Replace endash with emdash in sample.ps.
This follows the change of name for that glyph in Bedstead, based on 
ZVBI's Unicode mapping.

Specifically in those cases where they could be generated by lowering
the existing superscripts.

3f651120b1 Remove Arabic support entirely.
With the copyright status of the SAA5050 glyphs resolved, the Arabic
glyphs stolen from an EBU document were the only thing left in
bedstead.c with dubious copyright.  Since I have no evidence of their
actual use, I don't think they're worth the trouble any more.

If someone can find an actual Arabic teletext character generator
using a 5x9 matrix, I'll be quite happy to reinstate support.

5fd35b524f Dedicate Bedstead to the public domain using CC0.
Since the original SAA5050 face is essentially in the public domain, and 
I don't want my contributions to narrow the permitted uses.

2ecf1d67c0 Update copyright text based on s55 CDPA.
Looks like since 2015 Bedstead hasn't been infringing the SAA5050
copyright.

133e00d40b Distribution bits for Bedstead Extended.
This adds the extended font to the distribution package and also a 
little picture to show what Bedstead Extended looks like.
2015-11-24 22:36:07 +00:00
Ben Harris
450a9ea69f Mention Bedstead Extended on the Web page and reword text generally.
It now mentions the font name and makes rather more of the smoothing
algorithm and custom glyphs.

b64e107ad7 Set WWS bit in 'OS/2' header.
Bedstead only varies in width for now.

b307c886ce Set the 'OS/2' fsWidthClass field correctly for extended font.
In consequence, arrange a better mechanism for varying settings between
font versions.

6556e0ae93 Code to produce Bedstead Extended.
Bedstead Extended is a version of Bedstead with approximately the
dimensions of an SAA5050 displaying on a 576i display.

5084ab3998 Another tweak to whitepixel().
Now changing XQTR and YQTR has the hoped-for effect, changing the thickness of diagonal lines.  Without changing it, character outlines are unchanged.

f577594a51 Do internal path manipulations in design units.
blackpixel() and whitepixel() now produce paths in design units, so
emit_path() doesn't have any transformation to do.

702db19779 Redesign vec_bearing to distinguish all directions.
It now returns the shortest representable vector parallel to its
argument, so it can be used to distinguish between all possible
directions of vector.  This means that the rest of the code can be
more flexible it what it produces.  This makes no change to the
resulting font.

921cfe9cd1 Slight simplification to whitepixel().
Previously, when two black corners of a white pixel were adjacent,
they were both modified so as not to overlap.  Now only one corner is
modified, albeit slightly more radically.  This has no practical
effect on the output, but it makes the code simpler.
