Re: [ft] how to compile freetype dll on windows
You need to add the directory which contains the built library to the list of directories the linker searches. VSOptionsProjects and DirectoriesLibraries. Once the directory is added, then you can add the .lib file to the additional dependencies and it should find it. On 1/25/2010 11:23 AM, samaram s wrote: Yeah i got a dll..i ignored those warnings...

[ft] How to get correct bitmap
Hi,
I am trying with the example1 from the tutorial and learning with it how to
use the freetype API's. Thankful to all the team who developed a wonderful
application.
I am confused with the bitmap buffer that i am getting,
Here is the code.(Same as example1 code)
#define WIDTH 100
#define HEIGHT 500
void
draw_bitmap( FT_Bitmap* bitmap,
FT_Int x,
FT_Int y)
{
FT_Int i, j, p, q;
FT_Int x_max = x + bitmap-width;
FT_Int y_max = y + bitmap-rows;
FILE *fp;
printf(X is %d\n,x);
printf(Y is %d\n,y);
printf(Bitmap width is %d\n,bitmap-width);
printf(Bitmap rows is %d\n,bitmap-rows);
for ( i = x, p = 0; i x_max; i++, p++ )
{
for ( j = y, q = 0; j y_max; j++, q++ )
{
if ( i 0 || j 0 ||
i = WIDTH || j = HEIGHT )
continue;
image[j][i] |= bitmap-buffer[q * bitmap-width + p];
}
}
}
Here is my show_image()
void
show_image( FT_Bitmap* bitmap )
{
int i, j;
for ( i = 0; i HEIGHT; i++ )//HEIGHT
{
for ( j = 0; j WIDTH; j++ )
if( image[i][j] 128)
putchar('.');
else
putchar('*');
putchar( '\n' );
}
}
These are my output values,
Text C
Bitmap Left 10
Bitmap Top 314
X is 10
Y is 186
Bitmap width is 11
Bitmap rows is 12
When i tried converting a glyph C into bitmap,I can able to get the
character in bitmap but,i couldnt able to understand why image[i][j]128 we
are printing . (a dot)
Is there anyway i can just get the character bitmap ...nothing else with
that.
Also,
Why is the charater coming somewhere in the middle of a box.
i mean given a resolution 100*500 screen it is appearing somewhere down.Why
is it so?
I have attached my output in a PNG file.How can i understand the bitmap
buffer?
Thanks a lot

Oops, I'm quite sorry, I've slipped working for this issue,
due to the lack of sample to reproduce the problem. In fact,
Jimmy said all Type42 font does not work, but Type42 fonts
converted by fontforge works well in my environment.
Since 2009-Jan-05, the incremental font interface has been
enabled by default, so his patch should be following. I've
checked that it does not reopen Savannah bug #25010, in
both cases of incremental font interfaces enabled/disabled.
Could I commit this patch to GIT head?

Re: [ft-devel] Open Type Font Support on Mobile Devices?
Hi Maggy, First, you would need FriBidi or another bidi implementation even if you use HarfBuzz. Next, for Arabic shaping, FriBidi does a very basic job of that, with no advanced substitution/positioning involved and hence no need for GSUB/GPOS tables. For anything more than basic Arabic you need HarfBuzz. behdad On 01/24/2010 10:30 PM, Maggy Anastasia wrote: Hi Behdad, At the moment I am trying to use HarfBuzz (and FreeType) to deal with these tables. The only reason for me to do so (at least at current moment) is to render Arabic font correctlly. you mentioned that if the primary use is to get Arabic rendering, I can use FriBidi only to do so. Does FriBidi2 needs advance typography tables (GPOS, GSUB, etc) as input? I looked at the interface of fribidi, it seems to me that freebidi output is independent from font files (ttf or otf) and that the information regarding glyph substitution, joining, etc is already defined in a built in lookup table (please correct me if I am wrong). If this is the case, if I want to render the arabic text using certain font, is it true that for glyph positioning, i would still need to use the information in GPOS table, thus requiring me to use HarfBuzz and FreeType? I am so sorry if my question is too basic, I have no prior knowledge on Arabic typography. I am basically in need of enlightenment on when to use fribidi, harfbuzz and freetype and whether I should combine any of these in this situation. best regards Maggy Anastasia Suryanto Hi, For OpenType complex shaping you need HarfBuzz [1]. Google engineers are working on using it for the Chromium port on Linux [2]. Using Pango with the FreeType backend is a simpler solution (Pango+FreeType uses HarfBuzz internally). If your primary use is to get Arabic rendering done, you can get away with using FriBidi2 [3] only. behdad [1] http://freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/HarfBuzz [2] http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/harfbuzz/2009-March/000312.html [3] http://fribidi.freedesktop.org/ On 04/09/2009 05:19 AM, Waqar Ahmad wrote: Hi, Is there anybody who has been working on font related stuff on mobile devices? I am interested in getting Open Type Font (OTF) support on symbian, windows mobile devices and most likely on Android in future as well. As far as I know, Open Type Fonts (Arabic, Urdu etc.) are not supported on Symbian and Windows Mobile devices. FreeType does not support GSUB and GPOS. I am thinking about porting an existing open source OTF solution to mobile devices. A few possibilities that come in my mind are mentioned below and suggestions from members of this list are solicited. -Is there any good port of FreeType for Symbian and Windows Mobile available in open source? If it is there, I can try to further extend it to add required support for OTF. -If somebody has experience of working with Pango and consider it good for porting to mobile devices, this can be another option to explore. -Google Adroid is using FreeType, however, I don't know if they have added any support for OTF. One way could be to take FreeType from Android (assuming it would have been optimized for constrained mobile devices) and add support for OTF. I would highly appreciate suggestions and guidelines from this list on above matters. Best Regards, Waqar However, I am not sure if Open Type Font are completely supported or not in FreeType library. Specifically, I am interested in Urdu and Arabic languages support which require a number of rules for appropriate text rendering like glyph positioning and substitution. I want to know if such features are supported in FreeType library? If not, is there any other project in your knowledge that is working on something similar to what I am interested in? I will highly appreciate your guidance in this regard. ___ Freetype-devel mailing list addr...@hidden http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/freetype-devel ___ Freetype-devel mailing list Freetype-devel@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/freetype-devel ___ Freetype-devel mailing list Freetype-devel@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/freetype-devel
