I have a little program which
makes a copy of a font file
changes a random byte to a random value (optionally more than 1)
passes the result to fontforge and makes sure ff can handle
it without crashing.
I believe I modified the program to pass the font to the freetype font
loader, and posted it to this list. I never ran any significant tests on
freetype.
(I have used it on fontforge and found a number of flaws in it)
Ah yes, I sent my message on 10 Feb 2005 with subject: "Re: [ft-devel]
tests". I can resend it if anyone likes.
