PDF::API3::Compat::API2::Basic::TTF::Font - Memory representation of a font

SYNOPSIS

Top

Here is the regression test (you provide your own font). Run it once and then again on the output of the first run. There should be no differences between the outputs of the two runs.

    $f = PDF::API3::Compat::API2::Basic::TTF::Font->open($ARGV[0]);

    # force a read of all the tables
    $f->tables_do(sub { $_[0]->read; });

    # force read of all glyphs (use read_dat to use lots of memory!)
    # $f->{'loca'}->glyphs_do(sub { $_[0]->read; });
    $f->{'loca'}->glyphs_do(sub { $_[0]->read_dat; });
    # NB. no need to $g->update since $f->{'glyf'}->out will do it for us

    $f->out($ARGV[1]);
    $f->release;            # clear up memory forcefully!

DESCRIPTION

Top

A Truetype font consists of a header containing a directory of tables which constitute the rest of the file. This class holds that header and directory and also creates objects of the appropriate type for each table within the font. Note that it does not read each table into memory, but creates a short reference which can be read using the form:

    $f->{$tablename}->read;

Classes are included that support many of the different TrueType tables. For those for which no special code exists, the table type table is used, which defaults to PDF::API3::Compat::API2::Basic::TTF::Table. The current tables which are supported are:

    table       PDF::API3::Compat::API2::Basic::TTF::Table      - for unknown tables

INSTANCE VARIABLES

Top

Instance variables begin with a space (and have lengths greater than the 4 characters which make up table names).

nocsum

This is used during output to disable the creation of the file checksum in the head table. For example, during DSIG table creation, this flag will be set to ensure that the file checksum is left at zero.

fname (R)

Contains the filename of the font which this object was read from.

INFILE (P)

The file handle which reflects the source file for this font.

OFFSET (P)

Contains the offset from the beginning of the read file of this particular font directory, thus providing support for TrueType Collections.

METHODS

Top

PDF::API3::Compat::API2::Basic::TTF::Font->AddTable($tablename, $class)

Adds the given class to be used when representing the given table name. It also 'requires' the class for you.

PDF::API3::Compat::API2::Basic::TTF::Font->Init

For those people who like making fonts without reading them. This subroutine will require all the table code for the various table types for you. Not needed if using PDF::API3::Compat::API2::Basic::TTF::Font::read before using a table.

PDF::API3::Compat::API2::Basic::TTF::Font->new(%props)

Creates a new font object and initialises with the given properties. This is primarily for use when a TTF is embedded somewhere. Notice that the properties are automatically preceded by a space when inserted into the object. This is in order that fields do not clash with tables.

PDF::API3::Compat::API2::Basic::TTF::Font->open($fname)

Reads the header and directory for the given font file and creates appropriate objects for each table in the font.

$f->read

Reads a Truetype font directory starting from the current location in the file. This has been separated from the open function to allow support for embedded TTFs for example in TTCs. Also reads the head and maxp tables immediately.

$f->out($fname [, @tablelist])

Writes a TTF file consisting of the tables in tablelist. The list is checked to ensure that only tables that exist are output. (This means that you can't have non table information stored in the font object with key length of exactly 4)

In many cases the user simply wants to output all the tables in alphabetical order. This can be done by not including a @tablelist, in which case the subroutine will output all the defined tables in the font in alphabetical order.

Returns $f on success and undef on failure, including warnings.

All output files must include the head table.

$f->out_xml($filename [, @tables])

Outputs the font in XML format

$f->XML_start($context, $tag, %attrs)

Handles start messages from the XML parser. Of particular interest to us are <font> and <table>.

$f->update

Sends update to all the tables in the font and then resets all the isDirty flags on each table. The data structure in now consistent as a font (we hope).

$f->dirty

Dirties all the tables in the font

$f->tables_do(&func)

Calls &func for each table in the font. Calls the table in alphabetical sort order as per the order in the directory:

    &func($table, $name);

$f->release

Releases ALL of the memory used by the TTF font and all of its component objects. After calling this method, do NOT expect to have anything left in the PDF::API3::Compat::API2::Basic::TTF::Font object.

NOTE, that it is important that you call this method on any PDF::API3::Compat::API2::Basic::TTF::Font object when you wish to destruct it and free up its memory. Internally, we track things in a structure that can result in circular references, and without calling 'release()' these will not properly get cleaned up by Perl. Once you've called this method, though, don't expect to be able to do anything else with the PDF::API3::Compat::API2::Basic::TTF::Font object; it'll have no internal state whatsoever.

Developer note: As part of the brute-force cleanup done here, this method will throw a warning message whenever unexpected key values are found within the PDF::API3::Compat::API2::Basic::TTF::Font object. This is done to help ensure that any unexpected and unfreed values are brought to your attention so that you can bug us to keep the module updated properly; otherwise the potential for memory leaks due to dangling circular references will exist.

BUGS

Top

Bugs abound aplenty I am sure. There is a lot of code here and plenty of scope. The parts of the code which haven't been implemented yet are:

Post

Version 4 format types are not supported yet.

Cmap

Format type 2 (MBCS) has not been implemented yet and therefore may cause somewhat spurious results for this table type.

Kern

Only type 0 & type 2 tables are supported (type 1 & type 3 yet to come).

TTC

The current PDF::API3::Compat::API2::Basic::TTF::Font::out method does not support the writing of TrueType Collections.

In addition there are weaknesses or features of this module library

Apart from these, I try to keep the code in a state of "no known bugs", which given the amount of testing this code has had, is not a guarantee of high quality, yet.

For more details see the appropriate class files.
