44 * Controlling the auto-hinting module.
47 * While FreeType's auto-hinter 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 following lists the available properties
50 * together with the necessary macros and structures.
52 * Note that the auto-hinter's module name is `autofitter' for
58 /**************************************************************************
64 * The auto-hinter provides various script modules to hint glyphs.
65 * Examples of supported scripts are Latin or CJK. Before a glyph is
66 * auto-hinted, the Unicode character map of the font gets examined, and
67 * the script is then determined based on Unicode character ranges, see
70 * OpenType fonts, however, often provide much more glyphs than
71 * character codes (small caps, superscripts, ligatures, swashes, etc.),
72 * to be controlled by so-called `features'. Handling OpenType features
73 * can be quite complicated and thus needs a separate library on top of
76 * The mapping between glyph indices and scripts (in the auto-hinter
77 * sense, see the @FT_AUTOHINTER_SCRIPT_XXX values) is stored as an
78 * array with `num_glyphs' elements, as found in the font's @FT_Face
79 * structure. The `glyph-to-script-map' property returns a pointer to
80 * this array which can be modified as needed. Note that the
81 * modification should happen before the first glyph gets processed by
82 * the auto-hinter so that the global analysis of the font shapes
83 * actually uses the modified mapping.
85 * The following example code demonstrates how to access it (omitting
86 * the error handling).
91 * FT_Prop_GlyphToScriptMap prop;
94 * FT_Init_FreeType( &library );
95 * FT_New_Face( library, "foo.ttf", 0, &face );
99 * FT_Property_Get( library, "autofitter",
100 * "glyph-to-script-map", &prop );
102 * // adjust `prop.map' as needed right here
