Re: [ft] Outline tags

Sorry for the late reply. Into the documentation (glyphs/index2.html), on the Outlines curves decomposition, I read on FT_Curve_Tag_On: Used when the point is on the curve, but if I load a char, for example an I with an Arial font (I'm sure that there is 4 segments and 8 points on the

[ft-devel] Porting Free Type on 8 Bit platform!

2005-09-23 Thread Kiran Mahajan
Hi all, Many of you mite have worked on porting Freetype on Embedded platforms. I want to know that, Is it possible to port freetype2 on 8 bit platform like 8 Bit microcontrollers based on 8051 core or 8 Bit Rabbit processors? If yes, which are the facts to do that? Also what will be the

Re: [ft-devel] Re: Problem with FreeType cache system

2005-09-23 Thread Werner LEMBERG
max_bytes corresponds to the maximum amount of memory you want to dedicate to the cache nodes, it doesn't need to correspond to the total memory available on your system; it's used to prevent the cache from inflating to vexing levels. note that it does NOT account for managed FT_Face and

Re: [ft-devel] [Patch] Autofit and stem snapping

the FreeType API defines several FT_LOAD_TARGET_XXX constants that determine which hinting algorithm to use when loading outlines from a font file: FT_LOAD_TARGET_NORMAL = hint for normal anti-aliased rendering FT_LOAD_TARGET_LIGHT = same as above, but hint less !

Hi everyone, I've got it ! - the demo code didn't really select the hinting algorithm correctly, I've corrected it in the CVS to match libXft's behaviour - there was a bug in the auto-fitter, which never resetted hint mode bitflags within af_latin_hints_init. The fix is a one-liner

RE: [ft-devel] Porting Free Type on 8 Bit platform!

2005-09-23 Thread Turner, David
In theory, FreeType should work on 16-bit platforms, but this hasn't been officially verified for a very long time. However, I don't know of any 8-bit platform that is capable of dealing with, say, memory-mapped files or heap blocks that are larger than, say, 64 Kb, and this ability is required

You mean that all registers and operators are based on 8bit entities? yes all registers and operators are 8bit. Hmm, I think there must be at least some 16bit entities for jumps and similar things, right? i don't want to have support for all fonts but if i can compile it for a single font

[ft-devel] Load and Render Flags.

Hi, I will appreciate, if someone can give pointers to Load (FT_LOAD_XXX) and Render(FT_RENDER_XXX) flags to be used in ver. 2.1.10. Specifically for following scenarios: -Antialiasing (ON), Hinting(ON) -Antialiasing (ON), Hinting(OFF) -Antialiasing (OFF), Hinting(ON)
