CHANGES BETWEEN 2.12.1 and 2.12.2
- I. IMPORTANT BUG FIXES
+ I. IMPORTANT CHANGES
- II. MISCELLANEOUS
+ - The demo program `ftinspect` has been completely updated and much
+ enhanced. It now combines the functionality of almost all other
+ graphical FreeType demo programs into a single application based
+ on the Qt framework. This was Charlie Jiang's GSoC 2022 project.
+
+
+ III. MISCELLANEOUS
+
+ - For OpenType Variable Fonts, `avar` table format 2.0 is now
+ supported. The code was contributed by Behdad Esfahbod.
+
+ Note that this is an extension supported on recent Apple platforms
+ and by HarfBuzz, but not yet in the OpenType standard! See
+
+ https://github.com/harfbuzz/boring-expansion-spec/blob/main/avar2.md
+
+ for the specification.
+
+ - A new API `FT_GlyphSlot_Slant` to slant a glyph by a given angle
+ has been added. Note that this function is part of `ftsynth.h`,
+ which is still considered to be in alpha stage.
- TrueType interpreter version 38 (also known as 'Infinality') that
was first introduced about 10 years ago in FreeType 2.4.11 is now
