Hi font friends! I'm trying to share a font rendering bug fix contributed by my colleagues Behdad and Igor.
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~martin/webrevs/openjdk9/freetypeScaler-outline/ Repro recipe: (cd test/java/awt/font/GlyphVector/ && javac GlyphVectorOutline.java && wget -q -O/tmp/msgothic.ttc https://browserlinux-jp.googlecode.com/files/msgothic.ttc && java GlyphVectorOutline /tmp/msgothic.ttc /tmp/katakana.png) After successfully running that, examine the two rendered Japanese characters. Without our fix, the lower one is misrendered. I don't know how the fix works, and whether/how the manual test case can be turned into a real jtreg test.
