Hello Werner,
I have converted the rasterizer to use fixed point, will post a more elaborate
status report once I get SIMD working with fixed point, but here are the
highlights:
1. Fixed point calculation is notably faster.
2. I have analysed fontdue, and it doesn't seem to have any significant
difference in the rasterizer algorithm, just some minor improvements which I am
in the process of porting over.
3. Added comments and cleaned up the code a bit. More documentation work in
progress.
4. I am also testing the renderer on a variety of fonts and have found some
issues, (specifically when the outlines overflow the glyph width).
Will post more testing details and perf numbers in a report soon.
Regards
Anurag
