|

|

|
|
This is a port of the [VEFontCache](https://github.com/hypernewbie/VEFontCache) library.
|
|
|
|
Its original purpose was for use in game engines, however its rendeirng quality and performance is more than adequate for many other applications.
|
|
|
|
See: [docs/Readme.md](docs/Readme.md) for the library's interface.
|
|
|
|
## Building
|
|
|
|
See [scripts/Readme.md](scripts/Readme.md) for building examples or utilizing the provided backends.
|
|
|
|
Currently the scripts provided & the library itself were developed & tested on Windows. There are bash scripts for building on linux & mac.
|
|
|
|
The library depends on freetype, harfbuzz, & stb_truetype to build.
|
|
Note: freetype and harfbuzz could technically be gutted if the user removes their definitions, however they have not been made into a conditional compilation option (yet).
|
|
|
|
## Changes from orignal
|
|
|
|
* Font Parser & Glyph shaper are abstracted to their own warpper interface
|
|
* ve_fontcache_loadfile not ported (ust use core:os or os2, then call load_font)
|
|
* Macro defines have been coverted (mostly) to runtime parameters
|
|
* Support for hot_reloading
|
|
* Curve quality step interpolation for glyph rendering can be set on a per font basis.
