> 2. What test suites are available? There is a stress test generation program available from fontforge which will take a directory of normal fonts, mangle them, and make sure that the library doesn't crash on them. http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/fontforge/fontforge/test/randomtest.c?rev=1.1&view=log (initially designed for fontforge, but modified to work for freetype too). It is very difficult to come up with a general testsuite for font rasterization. There are many possible "good" solutions, the "best" will vary from display to display, individual esthetics are often different. -- It's not like a compiler where the result either succeeds or fails. _______________________________________________ Freetype-devel mailing list Freetype-devel@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/freetype-devel
