<p>The auto-hinter provides various script modules to hint glyphs. Examples of supported scripts are Latin or CJK. Before a glyph is auto-hinted, the Unicode character map of the font gets examined, and the script is then determined based on Unicode character ranges, see below.</p>
|
||
|
<p>OpenType fonts, however, often provide much more glyphs than character codes (small caps, superscripts, ligatures, swashes, etc.), to be controlled by so-called ‘features’. Handling OpenType features can be quite complicated and thus needs a separate library on top of FreeType.</p>
|
||
|
<p>The mapping between glyph indices and scripts (in the auto-hinter sense, see the <a href="ft2-auto_hinter.html#FT_AUTOHINTER_SCRIPT_XXX">FT_AUTOHINTER_SCRIPT_XXX</a> values) is stored as an array with ‘num_glyphs’ elements, as found in the font's <a href="ft2-base_interface.html#FT_Face">FT_Face</a> structure. The ‘glyph-to-script-map’ property returns a pointer to this array which can be modified as needed. Note that the modification should happen before the first glyph gets processed by the auto-hinter so that the global analysis of the font shapes actually uses the modified mapping.</p>
|
||
|
<p>The following example code demonstrates how to access it (omitting the error handling).</p>

<p>If no auto-hinter script module can be assigned to a glyph, a fallback script gets assigned to it (see also the <a href="ft2-auto_hinter.html#glyph-to-script-map">glyph-to-script-map</a> property). By default, this is <a href="ft2-auto_hinter.html#FT_AUTOHINTER_SCRIPT_XXX">FT_AUTOHINTER_SCRIPT_CJK</a>. Using the ‘fallback-script’ property, this fallback value can be changed.</p>

<p>It's important to use the right timing for changing this value: The creation of the glyph-to-script map which eventually uses the fallback script value gets triggered either by setting or reading a face-specific property like <a href="ft2-auto_hinter.html#glyph-to-script-map">glyph-to-script-map</a>, or by auto-hinting any glyph from that face. In particular, if you have already created an <a href="ft2-base_interface.html#FT_Face">FT_Face</a> structure but not loaded any glyph (using the auto-hinter), a change of the fallback glyph will affect this face.</p>
