+<!
+-------
+>
+
+<b>New features:</b>
+<ul>
+<li> Added Autotrace support for the bitmap fonts (-OZ). It's horrible.
+<li> Added vectorization of bitmap fonts (-OV) - functionally the same thing as 
+  autotrace but home-grown. Works mostly decently but still with large
+  space for impprovement.
+<li> Relaxed the conditions for warnings about long glyphs.
+</ul>

+<li> New option <b>-G</b> to select the file types to generate.
+<li> Creation of the dvips encoding files (by Rigel).
+<li> More glyphs in the Chinese maps (by Rigel).
+<li> Made the assignment of ISO8859/1 glyph names to the glyphs in the
+  fonts without PostScript names in them dependent on the original
+  encoding: no change for the 8-bit encodings, for the Unicode encoding
+  the names are assigned to the glyph with the codes 0-255 in Unicode,
+  and for the other 16-bit encodings the 8859/1 names are not assigned
+  at all.
+</ul>
+
+<b>Bug fixes:</b>
+<ul>
+<li> Added a check for spaces in the PostScript font name in the FreeType
+  parser.
+<li> Made "-" a valid character in the glyph names.

+  extracted from a font that has no PostScript glyph names defined.
+<li> Added ability to map a glyph to more than one code when unisng the
+  native parser (-pttf).
+</ul>

+
+<b>New features:</b>
+<ul>
+<li> Cyrillic (full set of glyphs) language tables (by Zvezdan Petkovic).
+  Now the languages "russian" and "bulgarian" are provided for compatibility
+  only, use the common language "cyrillic" instead.
+<li> More information in <a href="FONTS.html">FONTS</a> on using Cyrillic fonts with 
+  Netscape (by Zvezdan Petkovic)
+<li> In the Netscape print filter added removal of the clipping path command:
+  otherwise Netscape tends to cut off a large piece of the rightmost column
+  of the tables.
+<li> One more script for printing from Netscape (by Zvezdan Petkovic).
+<li> Added selection of the base TTF encoding by pid/eid in the external maps.
+<li> Improved the recognition of substituted stems for intersecting contours.
+<li> Improved the substituted hints to make the horizontal positioning of
+  the points at the same height more uniform at small pixel sizes.
+<li> Made the algorithm for calculation of standard stem widths more
+  selective.
+<li> Added link to the GnuWin32 project.
+</ul>
+
+<b>Bug fixes:</b>
+<ul>
+<li> TH: Print out metrics of un-encoded glyphs even without "-a" option.
+<li> Added missing "/" in Fontmap generation in convert (by Zvezdan Petkovic).
+<li> Removed unneccessary "\n" in messages in x2gs.
+<li> Removed the broken overoptimisation of "0 0 rmoveto".
+<li> Removed the useless warnings about multiple codes for a glyph.
+<li> Changed the FreeType2 include directory in the Makefile to match the
+  FreeType's default.
+</ul>
+
+<H4>
+3.3.3 -- March 4, 2001
+</H4>
+<!
+-------
+>
+
+Packaged by Sergey Babkin.
+<p>
+
+<b>New features:</b>
+<ul>
+<li> TH: Added printing of front-end parser in the header of the font file.
+<li> Tested build with FreeType 2.0 Release.

+
+<b>Bug fixes:</b>
+<ul>
+<li> Changed the installation script which on some versions of bash
+  copied all files into the share directory.
+<li> Fixed the close sequences of html2man comments in the HTML files, 
+  now they should display correctly with <tt>lynx</tt>.
+<li> Restored the ability to include un-encoded characters into the
+  customised maps (those with codes over 255).
+<li> Fixed the Unicode mapping of the Cyrillic letters "YO" and  "yo" 
+  (by Yuri Shemanin).
+<li> Fixed the spurious aborts when the conversion-by-plane function
+  gets called for auto-guessing of encoding.
+</ul>
+
+<H4>
+3.3.2 -- November 20, 2000
+</H4>
+<!
+--------------------------
+>
+
+Packaged by Sergey Babkin.
+<p>
+
+<b>New features:</b>
+<ul>
+<li> Added generation of man pages.
+<li> Added "make install" and "make uninstall".
+<li> Added language option "-l plane".
+<li> In <tt>other/showg</tt> added better support of comparison files:
+<ul>
+  <li> printing of the comparison file legend;
+  <li> guessing of missing glyph names in a comparison file by code;
+  <li> bounding boxes of all comparison files are used for page layout.
+</ul>
+<li> Added ability to use external t1asm instead of compiling it in.
+<li> Renamed the fonts installation guide from INSTALL*html to FONTS*html
+  to avoid confusion with installation of ttf2pt1 itself.
+</ul>
+
+<b>Bug fixes:</b>
+<ul>
+<li> Removed erroneous extra fclose(pfa_file).
+<li> Fixed random memory corruption that manifested with crash on Linux
+  when converting fonts not containing glyph names.
+<li> Removed from the output file the comments that confused dvips. Changed 
+  <tt>other/showg</tt> to work without them.
+<li> In <tt>other/showg</tt> added better checks for missing glyphs, now it
+  gives warnings about them and the output file does not crash PostScript.
+</ul>
+
+<b>Other:</b>
+<ul>
+<li> <tt>ttf2pfa</tt> is no longer included, people interested in history 
+  should look for it in the older versions. 
+</ul>
+
+<H4>
+3.3.1 -- October 22, 2000
+</H4>
+<!
+-------------------------
+>
+
+Packaged by Sergey Babkin.
+<p>
+
+<b>New features:</b>
+<ul>
+<li> Added front-end parser based on the FreeType-2 library. See Makefile
+for build instructions.
+<li> Changed the handling of encodings to accomodate the FreeType model.
+<li> Further cleaned up the front-end parser interface.
+</ul>
+
+<b>Bug fixes:</b>
+<ul>
+<li> Fixed a bug that caused core dump on Alpha machines.
+<li> Fixed a bug in the outline smoothing that occasionally caused core dump.
+<li> Cleaned up warnings from picky compilers
+<li> Fixed more bugs in the Windows port (by Stefan Bauer).
+<li> Fixed the RPM spec file (suggested by Brian Armstrong).
+</ul>
+<p>
+
+<H4>
+3.3.0 -- September 22, 2000
+</H4>
+<!
+---------------------------
+>
+
+Packaged by Sergey Babkin.
+<p>
+
+<b>New features:</b>
+<ul>
+<li> Converted most of the outlines' processing to floating point
+arithmetic.
+<li> Added splitting of curves crossing the quadrant boundaries (no gross 
+damage is done any more to the Marvosym font and others like it).
+<li> Added modular interface for front-end font parsers and option to control
+their selection at run time.
+<li> Grouped the outline processing control options into one to reduce the
+options namespace pollution.
+<li> Thomas moved the Chinese maps into a separate module, chinese-maps.
+<li> Thomas added option -V to print version number. In addition, the version
+number is put in the header of the font file.
+<li> Added long option names (suggested by Thomas).
+<li> Added support for multi-level composite glyphs.
+<li> TH: Made &lt;fontname&gt; command-line argument optional; default to &lt;ttf-file&gt;
+with suffix replaced.
+<li> In <tt>other/showg</tt> added more ways to specify glyphs and the comparison option.
+</ul>
+
+<b>Bug fixes:</b>
+<ul>
+<li> Fixed the VC++ batch file, added batch file for Cygnus GCC on Windows.
+<li> Removed parentheses from the Version string in AFM files because it does
+not help StarOffice anyway. StarOffice 5.2 has been reported to have this
+bug fixed. Added paragraph on StarOffice in FONTS.html.
+<li> Made messages on the '?' option parameter more meaningful (by Johan Vromans).
+<li> Changed the latin1 encoding table to include the Euro sign, Z and z with
+caron (by Thomas Henlich).
+<li> Improved the smoothing code which occasionally had problems with
+joining curves. Also fixed a few minor bugs in it.
+</ul>
+
+<H4>
+3.22 -- May 23, 2000
+</H4>
+<!
+--------------------
+>
+
+Packaged by Sergey Babkin.
+<p>
+
+<b>New features:</b>
+<ul>
+<li> Included windows support by Frank Siegert (somewhat amended)
+<li> Added control over verbosity of warnings.
+<li> Added arguments and initialization functions to the language
+translation routines.
+<li> Added support of planes determined by arguments to the external
+maps.
+<li> Added compact external maps format (primarily for Eastern fonts).
+<li> Added external maps for Chinese GBK and Big5 encodings (converted
+from ttf2pfb) as well as maps for other Chinese encodings by Wang Lei.
+<li> Added the idea of buckets to speed up the search in external maps.
+<li> Changed the grouping algorithm for substituted hints: now it creates
+a bit bigger files but requires smaller hint stack when being rendered.
+<li> Added maximal limit of hint stack depth, glyphs requiring bigger 
+stack get generation of substituted hints disabled. This makes substituted 
+hints safe to use, no more lost glyphs due to hint stack overflow.
+<li> Added the font dump program <tt>other/dumpf</tt>.
+<li> Changed the testing HTML generator <tt>other/lst.pl</tt> to use tables.
+<li> Added debugging script <tt>other/cntstems.pl</tt> to count required hint
+stack depth for the glyphs.
+</ul>
+
+<b>Bug fixes:</b>
+<ul>
+<li> Fixed printing of UID in script/trans. Changed the auto-generated UID to
+be in range 4000000-4999999 which is reserved by Adobe for private use.
+<li> Fixed handling of "cleartomark" in built-in t1asm.
+<li> Added handling of "can't happen" case in straighten() routine
+which actually happened on strange fonts and caused failure on assertion.
+<li> Made it always include the glyph .notdef in the resulting font.
+<li> Placed the version string in AFM file in parentheses, hopefully
+that would fix the problem with StarOffice.
+<li> Improved the smoothing code which occasionally had problems with
+joining curves.
+</ul>
+
+<H4>
+3.21 -- March 1, 2000
+</H4>
+<!
+---------------------
+>
+
+Sergey Babkin: committed the changes by Petr Titera and
+my bugfixes.
+<p>
+
+<b>New features:</b>
+<ul>
+<li> New Unicode map format with glyph names, by Petr Titera.
+<li> Option to force the Unicode encoding by Petr Titera
+ (I changed it to work on any MS encoding, not only Symbol).
+<li> Slightly tweaked the calculation of hints, should be better now.
+</ul>
+
+<b>Bug fixes:</b>
+<ul>
+<li> The unicode-sample.map with description of the map formats
+ was lost in the release process, restored and enhanced.
+<li> Renamed the table ISOLatin1Encoding to Fmt3Encoding to reflect
+ the way it is used. Saved the original one for reference
+ purposes. In the new table renamed "quoteright" to "quotesingle"
+ as Thomas Henlich suggested (and he were right).
+<li> In the ISOLatinEncoding table renamed the glyph "grave"
+ at octal 0140 to "quoteleft", "quotesingle" at octal 047 to
+ "quoteright" to conform to the standard as suggested by 
+ Martin Trautner).
+<li> Fixed bug in scripts/trans that corrupted the UniqueID record
+ in the translated fonts.
+<li> Fixed bug in interaction of substituted hints with BlueZones.
+ Now the fonts with hint substitution seem to be always at least
+ not worse than without it (well, when they fit in the X11
+ file size limit).
+</ul>
+
+
+<H4>
+3.2 -- January 15, 2000
+</H4>
+<!
+-----------------------
+>
+
+Sergey Babkin: combined my changes with the changes by
+Thomas Henlich. The result deserves a not-so-minor version
+increase.
+<p>
+
+<b>New features:</b>
+<ul>
+<li> Support of the external Unicode re-encoding maps
+  (by Thomas).
+<li> Support for inclusion of all the glyphs from the
+  source file into the resulting file (inspired by
+  Thomas but I re-implemented it to remove the limitation
+  of his implementation: not more than 1024 glyphs).
+<li> The hints substitution. It's an experimental feature
+  yet and needs further work.
+<li> Support for UniqueID and its auto-generation.
+<li> Support for the name-based conversions from Unicode
+  in general and the adobestd "language" in particular.
+<li> Started the split of the source code into multiple
+  files. This needs more work to do it in a cleaner
+  way.
+<li> Better framework for the debugging printout
+  in the converter.
+<li> Utilities to install the fonts in Netscape 
+  Navigator/Communicator 4.x.
+<li> Patches for bigger font files in the X11 rasterizer.
+<li> Linux RPM spec-file (by Johan Vromans).
+<li> Added the COPYRIGHT file (BSD-style, as we discussed
+  on the mailing list earlier) and the CHANGES file.
+<li> Creation of the <tt>.pfb</tt> files from the <tt>convert</tt>
+  script.
+<li> Changed the <tt>.notdef</tt>-s in the built-in
+  ISOLatin1Encoding table to some valid names (by Thomas).
+  Thomas also suggested replacing `<tt>quoteright</tt>' by
+  `<tt>quotesingle</tt>' but this seems to be against the
+  Adobe ISOLatin1 table.
+<li> New aliases <tt>windows-1251</tt> and <tt>cp-866</tt> for
+  the Russian encodings: those are expected by Netscape
+  navigator.
+<li> The font comparison program <tt>other/cmpf</tt>.
+<li> The "magnifying glass" program for glyph outlines:
+  <tt>other/showg</tt>.
+<li> Other updates of the tools in the `<tt>other</tt>' subdirectory.
+<li> Added a link to T1LIB in README.
+<li> A few new options in <tt>convert.cfg</tt>.
+</ul>
+
+<b>Bux fixes:</b>
+<ul>
+<li> A bug in the outline smoothing code that corrupted some
+  of the fonts (for example, Microsoft Verdana).
+<li> Added explicit `<tt>cleartomark</tt>' to the end of file,
+  this seems to be compatible with both old and new version
+  of <tt>t1asm</tt> (suggested by Thomas).
+<li> Added the <tt>FontEncoding</tt> statement to the AFM files
+  (techincally this was not a bug because this statement
+  is optional but some programs want it).
+<li> A coredump when the converter tried to print a warning
+  (rather ironically) about a weird glyph width.
+<li> Changed the underscores in the font names to dashes (this
+  has been proposed long time ago by Johan Vromans).
+<li> No more glyph names of font names staring with a digit.
+<li> The names of the fonts in font and AFM files are now the
+  same as in the generated Ghostscript <tt>Fontmap</tt> file.<br>
+  <b>Warning:</b> the names in <tt>Fontmap</tt> have been
+  changed.
+<li> The <tt>forceiso</tt> script does not corrupt the character
+  and kerning pairs counts any more, and is optional at all.
+<li> Fix for a loop going to 254 instead of 255 (by Thomas).
+<li> Added ':' in the font header (by Thomas).
+<li> A coredump when wrong language name is given (this was
+  also fixed by Thomas but I noticed it too late, after
+  I already fixed it by myself).
+<li> Fixed the links to the Adobe documents in README.
+</ul>

+>
+
+Packaged by Sergey Babkin.

+
+<b>New features:</b>
+<ul>
+<li> Added support for the Bulgarian language (actually, for now just an alias
+of Russian).

+<li> Now the conversion scripts create and install the .afm files too.
+<li> The conversion script removes the intermediate files after installation.
+<li> Added tunables to the conversion script.
+<li> Installation of the Ghostscript fonts can now be done automatically
+together with the X11 fonts.
+</ul>
+
+<b>Bux fixes:</b>
+<ul>
+<li> (FINALLY!!!) A correct fix for the infamous Red Hat 6.0 stdio "feature".
+<li> A number of little bugs discovered by a picky SGI compiler (well, maybe
+some day I'll try to run it through the UnixWare lint and see what happens).    
+<li> A diagnostic message about the empty encodings in the convert script was
+made less cryptic and a bug in the awk sub-script was fixed.                    
+<li> The .afm creation code now considers the option -t.

+3.0alpha -- October 19, 1998

+----------------------------

+
+By Sergey Babkin.
+<p>
+
+<b>New features:</b>
+<ul>
+<li> Improved (although still not perfect) handling of
+scaling in composite glyphs
+<li> Automatic correction of outlines to make them more
+smooth (to correct both rounding errors introduced
+during conversion and present in the original font)
+<li> Automatic generation of hints (still has lots of
+space for improvement)
+<li> Automatic generation of BlueValues etc.
+</ul>
+
+<b>Bux fixes:</b>
+<ul>
+<li> Scaling of fonts to 1000x1000 M-square required by
+Type1 standard
+<li> Printing out the contours in reverse direction, because
+TTF directions are different from Type1 ones (that was
+the major reason why the fonts generated by
+version 2.2 were rendered so badly in small sizes)
+</ul>

+
+<b>Bux fixes:</b>
+<ul>
+<li> "width" should be "short int" because otherwise:
+characters with negative widths (e.g. -4) become *very* wide (65532)
+<li> The number of /CharStrings is numglyphs and not numglyphs+1
+</ul>

+
+<b>Bux fixes:</b>
+<ul>
+<li> An original Bug Reported by Frank, which was just incorrect syntax in the 
+Type 1 header, managed to creep back into the Feb 04 Version. This has been
+Fixed in the Feb 13 Version.

+<b>Bux fixes:</b>
+<ul>
+<li> A workaround was implemented in ttf2pfa by altering the matrix. I suspect 
+I will have to calculate the correct values, as matrix ops are probably not

+(S.B.: The story how we got the version numbers is rather funny. Initially
+there were no version umbers, the releases were marked by dates. The version
+from June 22 1998 untarred itself into a directory "<tt>ttf2pt1-22</tt>". When I
+made my changes to it I assumed that this was the version number meaning
+version 2.2. Since Mark asked me to send him a complete archive I supposed 
+that I have to bump the version number. And I bumped it to 3.0 because the
+changes were rather extensive. Mark silently agreed and released the new
+version as 3.0. And that's the end of the story about how we got this
+Microsoft-like high version number.)
