The Font Creator Program(2)

字体修改软件的说明书

2.0 [August 30, 1999]

The created and modified date and time properties were not handled correctly.

Bug fixed (introduced in version 1.2.1) that resulted in only square (or empty) characters in the test

window.

Bug fixed that prohibited deleting glyphs in fonts without kerning.

The Font Creator Program now prevents exceptions when encountering wrong registry keys when

opening the installed fonts window.

Added 'Use my metrics' to composite glyph window.

Bug fixed that caused an exception when removing the kerning table.

Improved the "New Fonts..." feature.

Code mappings from the General->Cmap menu item now works with both decimal and hexadecimal

values (Thanks to Michael von Glasow).

Now you can select what header (postscript name or map codes) is shown above the glyphs in the

overview window (Suggested by Tom Thornton, Eric Dowty, Anders Sande and a lot of other people) Set the maximum length of the Font Family Name to 31. Otherwise Windows does not recognize the

font.

Fixed a small but annoying samplebar bug.

Added more info in statusbar while editing simple glyphs.

Fixed a bug that didn't enable the paste button when another Font Creator Program performed a copy

operation.

1.2.3 [August 1, 1999]

Added functionality that changes the bearings in the glyph edit windows.

Some minor bug fixes.

Panose information swapped the wrong way. (This bug and the two below were noticed by Uwe

Schröder)

Width classification bug fixed.

Handling of backup files didn't work properly.

1.2.2 [June 12, 1999]

First release of the tutorial!

Added Grayscale support. Found in General->Grayscale...

Pasting bitmap from clipboard is now allowed (in glyph edit window).

Bug fixed, now hinting will be removed when editing a glyph. This was not always the case in version

1.2.1.

Added a SpinEdit to the Threshold in the Image to Contour window.

Fixed a bug with the glyphs advanced width and left side bearings.

Added ascent and decent lines in glyph edit window.

1.2.1 [June 2, 1999] Updated the tutorial (to version 2.1). Improved the default new font templates. The symbol template used wrong mappings. Added drag and drop functionality to open font files dragged from the explorer to FCP. Added Naming fields License Agreement and License Agreement Link. The Position and the Size Tab on the Transformation Tool Bar now have the actual location and size of the selected contours. Added "Select All" functionality for both contours and points. If a composite glyph used two or more times a same glyph (like the double-quote ") only one was removed when trying to delete the used glyph. A composite glyph should be set to an empty glyph after all its used glyphs are removed. Added "delete gaspranges" available through right-click from menu-item "grayscale..". Fixed a bug that occurred when closing FCP while two or more fonts were still opened.
