Hi everyone, There is one thing that I can't understand : If I am right, using true type native hint information is patented by Apple. So to avoid this problem, Freetype 2 makes an auto-hinter to compute his own hint information. I've made an algorithm that reads ttf files and display glyphs using the Bézier control point. But as you can imagine, for small size, I've got bad results.
We are finally arriving to the question : In the FT_GlyphSlotRec struct, I've got information about my glyph like the outline points but these points are slightly different than the points I read directly in the file. I think there is a factor between them and there is more points with Freetype ! So my question is : Does the Freetype interpreter add/move points on the outline to take care of hint information ? If it's not that, why have I differences and how can I use/have hint information generated by the auto-hinter ? Thanks for reading me (and answering I hope ^^) :) Nicolas _______________________________________________ Freetype mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/freetype
