How to enable the TrueType native hinter if you need it
|
||
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The TrueType bytecode interpreter is disabled in all public
|
||
|
|
releases of the FreeType packages for patents reasons (see
|
||
|
|
http://www.freetype.org/patents.html for more details).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
However, many Linux distributions do enable the interpreter in the
|
||
|
|
FreeType packages (DEB/RPM/etc.) they produce for their platforms.
|
||
|
|
If you are using TrueType fonts on your system, you most probably
|
||
|
|
want to enable it manually by doing the following:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- open the file "include/freetype/config/ftoption.h"
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- locate a line that says:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#undef TT_CONFIG_OPTION_BYTECODE_INTERPRETER
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- change it to:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#define TT_CONFIG_OPTION_BYTECODE_INTERPRETER
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
of course, this must be done _before_ compiling the library
