40 * @title:
41 * The CFF driver
42 *
43 * @abstract:
44 * Controlling the CFF driver module.
45 *
46 * @description:
47 * While FreeType's CFF driver doesn't expose API functions by itself,
48 * it is possible to control its behaviour with @FT_Property_Set and
49 * @FT_Property_Get. The list below gives the available properties
50 * together with the necessary macros and structures.
51 *
52 * The CFF driver's module name is `cff'.
53 *
54 * *Hinting* *and* *antialiasing* *principles* *of* *the* *new* *engine*
55 *
56 * The rasterizer is positioning horizontal features (e.g., ascender
57 * height & x-height, or crossbars) on the pixel grid and minimizing the
58 * amount of antialiasing applied to them, while placing vertical
59 * features (vertical stems) on the pixel grid without hinting, thus
60 * representing the stem position and weight accurately. Sometimes the
61 * vertical stems may be only partially black. In this context,
62 * `antialiasing' means that stems are not positioned exactly on pixel
63 * borders, causing a fuzzy appearance.
64 *
65 * There are two principles behind this approach.
66 *
67 * 1) No hinting in the horizontal direction: Unlike `superhinted'
68 * TrueType, which changes glyph widths to accommodate regular
69 * inter-glyph spacing, Adobe's approach is `faithful to the design' in
70 * representing both the glyph width and the inter-glyph spacing
71 * designed for the font. This makes the screen display as close as it
72 * can be to the result one would get with infinite resolution, while
73 * preserving what is considered the key characteristics of each glyph.
74 * Note that the distances between unhinted and grid-fitted positions at
75 * small sizes are comparable to kerning values and thus would be
76 * noticeable (and distracting) while reading if hinting were applied.
77 *
78 * One of the reasons to not hint horizontally is antialiasing for LCD
79 * screens: The pixel geometry of modern displays supplies three
80 * vertical sub-pixels as the eye moves horizontally across each visible
81 * pixel. On devices where we can be certain this characteristic is
82 * present a rasterizer can take advantage of the sub-pixels to add
83 * increments of weight. In Western writing systems this turns out to
84 * be the more critical direction anyway; the weights and spacing of
85 * vertical stems (see above) are central to Armenian, Cyrillic, Greek,
86 * and Latin type designs. Even when the rasterizer uses greyscale
87 * antialiasing instead of color (a necessary compromise when one
88 * doesn't know the screen characteristics), the unhinted vertical
89 * features preserve the design's weight and spacing much better than
90 * aliased type would.
91 *
92 * 2) Aligment in the vertical direction: Weights and spacing along the
93 * y~axis are less critical; what is much more important is the visual
94 * alignment of related features (like cap-height and x-height). The
95 * sense of alignment for these is enhanced by the sharpness of grid-fit
96 * edges, while the cruder vertical resolution (full pixels instead of
97 * 1/3 pixels) is less of a problem.
98 *
99 * On the technical side, horizontal alignment zones for ascender,
100 * x-height, and other important height values (traditionally called
101 * `blue zones') as defined in the font are positioned independently,
102 * each being rounded to the nearest pixel edge, taking care of
103 * overshoot suppression at small sizes, stem darkening, and scaling.
104 *
105 * Hstems (this is, hint values defined in the font to help align
106 * horizontal features) that fall within a blue zone are said to be
107 * `captured' and are aligned to that zone. Uncaptured stems are moved
108 * in one of four ways, top edge up or down, bottom edge up or down.
109 * Unless there are conflicting hstems, the smallest movement is taken
110 * to minimize distortion.

126 * Thanks to Adobe, which contributed a new hinting (and parsing)

211 * By default, the Adobe CFF engine darkens stems as follows (if the

213 *
214 * {
215 * stem width <= 0.5px: darkening amount = 0.4px

218 * stem width >= 2.333px: darkening amount = 0px
219 * }
220 *
221 * and piecewise linear in-between. At configuration time, these four
222 * control points can be set with the macro
223 * `CFF_CONFIG_OPTION_DARKENING_PARAMETERS'. At runtime, the control
224 * points can be changed using the `darkening-parameters' property, as
225 * the following example demonstrates.
226 *
227 * {
228 * FT_Library library;
229 * FT_Int darken_params[8] = { 500, 300, // x1, y1
230 * 1000, 200, // x2, y2

236 *
237 * FT_Property_Set( library, "cff",
238 * "darkening-parameters", darken_params );
239 * }
240 *
241 * The x~values give the stem width, and the y~values the darkening
242 * amount. The unit is 1000th of pixels. All coordinate values must be
243 * positive; the x~values must be monotonically increasing; the
244 * y~values must be monotonically decreasing and smaller than or
245 * equal to 500 (corresponding to half a pixel); the slope of each
246 * linear piece must be shallower than -1 (e.g., -.4).
247 *
248 * @note:
249 * This property can be used with @FT_Property_Get also.
