Release 1.16.0 (2018-10-19 Bryce Harrington <bryce@bryceharrington.org>)
========================================================================
This new stable release incorporates a number of improvements made in
the four years since 1.14.0.

Of particular note is a wealth of work by Adrian Johnson to enhance PDF
functionality, including restoring support for MacOSX 10.4, metadata,
hyperlinks, and more.

Much attention also went into fonts, including new colored emoji glyph
support, variable fonts, and fixes for various font idiosyncrasies.

Other noteworthy changes include GLESv3 support for the cairo_gl
backend, tracking of SVG units in generated SVG documents, and cleanups
for numerous test failures and related issues in the PDF and Postscript
backends.

For a complete log of changes, please see

    https://cairographics.org/releases/ChangeLog.1.16.0


Features and Enhancements
-------------------------
* Add support for OpenGL ES 3.0 to the gl backend.
* The PDF backend has gained support for a range of widely used
  features, including thumbnails, page labels, metadata, document
  outlines, structured text, hyperlinks, and tags.  Tags permit adding
  logical info such as headings, tables, figures, etc. that facilitates
  indexing, accessibility, text reflow, searching, and extraction of the
  tagged items to other software.  For details on this new PDF
  functionality, see:
    https://lists.cairographics.org/archives/cairo/2016-June/027427.html
* Variable font support.  Variable fonts are single font files with
  various typography characteristics, such as weight or slant, that users
  of the font can adjust between two points.  Effectively this enables a
  single font to behave as multiple fonts.
* Restore MacOSX 10.4 support.  Cairo had dropped 10.4 support when
  moving to the CoreText API.  Now we automatically detect which API to
  use via dynamic linking, so can resume supporting this older version
  of MacOSX.
* Support colored emoji glyphs, stored as PNG images in OpenType fonts.
* Skia backend is removed
* Use Reusable streams for forms in Level 3 Postscript.
* Add CAIRO_MIME_TYPE_EPS mime type for embedding EPS files.
* Add CCITT_FAX mime type for PDF and PS surfaces
* svg: add a new function to specify the SVG document unit
  (Bug #90166)
* Use UTF-8 filenames on Windows


API Changes
-----------
Several new APIs were added.  No existing APIs were altered.

New PDF functionality:

  * cairo_pdf_surface_add_outline
  * cairo_pdf_surface_set_metadata
  * cairo_pdf_surface_set_page_label
  * cairo_pdf_surface_set_thumbnail_size
  * cairo_tag_begin
  * cairo_tag_end
  * CAIRO_STATUS_TAG_ERROR

New error status items for problems relating to PDF tagging:

  * CAIRO_STATUS_WIN32_GDI_ERROR
  * CAIRO_STATUS_FREETYPE_ERROR
  * CAIRO_STATUS_PNG_ERROR

    New error status items for handling of GDI, libfreetype, and libpng
    errors, respectively.


Setting up Win32 surfaces for HDC with alpha channels:

  * cairo_win32_surface_create_with_format

    New API for added PDF functionality (see above), and new error
    status item for problems relating to PDF tagging.

Variable fonts:

  * cairo_font_options_get_variations
  * cairo_font_options_set_variations

Tracking units in SVG documents:

  * cairo_svg_surface_set_document_unit
  * cairo_svg_surface_get_document_unit

Notable Bug Fixes
-----------------
* Fix thin lines that don't show up when printing in Inkscape due to
  overly aggressive culling.
  (Bug #77298)
* Fix playback of recording surfaces into PDF surfaces, where objects
  with negative coordinates were not getting drawn.  To address this,
  the coordinate systems for PDF and PS have been changed to match
  cairo's coordinate system.  This allows recording surfaces to be
  emitted in cairo coordinates, and results in the same origin being
  used for all operations when using the recording surface XObject.
  Test cases for PDF and PS have also been updated accordingly.
  (Bug #89232)
* Fix "invalidfont" error on some printers when printing PDFs with
  embedded fonts that have glyphs (such as spaces) with
  num_contours == 0.  (Bug #79897)
* Fix missing glyphs such as thin dashes, which get scaled to 0 in
  userspace and thus have their drawing operations culled.  (Bug #94615)
* Fix other oddities caused by variously idiosyncratic fonts.
* Fix a data race in freed_pool discovered by Firefox's cairo usage.
  The patch adads atomic int load and store functions, with relaxed
  memory ordering.  (Bug #90318)
* Handle SOURCE and CLEAR operators when painting color glyphs.
  (Bug #102661)
* Fix falling back to system font with PDFs using certain embedded
  fonts, due to truncated font names.
  (Bug #103249)
* Prevent curved strokes in small ctms from being culled from vector
  surfaces
  (Bug #103071)
* Fix assertion hit with PDFs using Type 4 fonts rendered with user
  fonts, due to error when destroying glyph page.
  (Bug #103335)
* Prevent invalid ptr access for > 4GB images.
  (Bug #98165)
* pdf: Fix internal links pointing to other pages, by pre-calculating
  page heights so that link positions can be calculated more accurately.
* Fix error reporting in the xcb backend if fallback fails.  Instead of
  returning NULL when the X11 server can't do some operation, return a
  surface in an error state.
* Clarify documentation regarding device scale inheritance and the units
  used in cairo_surface_create_similar_image.
  (Bug #99094)
* Call XSync in the xlib backend before setting the error handler to
  ignore errors for certain requests, to make sure all pending errors
  are handled first.
* Fix regression with text containing space character on Win32.

individual 1.15.x releases.


Release 1.15.14    (2018-09-19 Bryce Harrington <bryce@bryceharrington.org>)
============================================================================
We're nearly ready to finalize the 1.16.0 release, so this snapshot
can be considered a beta for 1.16.

The most notable change this release is a performance optimization for
windows, discussed below.  Other than that, much of the development
focus was on final polish and stability as we prepare for 1.16.

Some attention went into getting the testsuite passing at least for the
image backend.  The Cairo testsuite depends on external software like
Pixman, and changes in the rendering behavior of these dependencies
change test behavior, leading to false positives.

Results from the Coverity static testing tool were also reviewed.  Most
of the issues flagged were false positives, but there were several
legitimate problems found and fixed.

For a complete log of changes, please see

    https://cairographics.org/releases/ChangeLog.1.15.12

Features and Enhancements
-------------------------
* Add more FreeeType font color conversions to support COLR/CPAL
* Update test reference images against current pixman

API Changes
-----------
None

Dependency Changes
------------------
None

Performance Optimizations
-------------------------
Vasily Galkin introduced a Win32 performance optimization for
CAIRO_OPERATOR_SOURCE when copying data from a backbuffer to an argb32
surface corresponding to a Win32 DC.  With this, argb32 drawing should
perform as fast as typical dibsection-buffered GDI drawing.  See the
Cairo mailing list for April 2018 for data and discussion of the
performance improvements.


Bug Fixes
---------
* Fix crash when rendering Microsoft's Segoe UI Emoji Regular font.
* Fix build breakage with glesv3 enabled due to non-existant glesv3.pc.
* Fix memory leaks found by Coverity
* Fix incorrect null ptr handling found by Coverity
* Fix test compilation when font-config is disabled
* Use _cairo_malloc instead of malloc (Bug #101547) (CVE-2017-9814)
* Fix assertion failure in the freetype backend (Bug #105746)


Release 1.15.12    (2018-04-04 Bryce Harrington <bryce@osg.samsung.com>)
========================================================================
The main focus for this release is the addition of Variable Font
support.  Variable fonts are single font files with various typography
characteristics, such as weight or slant, that users of the font can
adjust between two points.  Effectively this enables a single font to
behave as multiple fonts.

The Skia backend is disabled in this release, due to severe bitrot, and
will be removed in future releases.  Contact the cairo team if you have
a need of this backend.

Release 1.14.2 (2015-03-09 Bryce Harrington <bryce@osg.samsung.com>)
====================================================================
This release provides collected bug fixes, along with one feature
enhancement for the xcb backend, and a small performance improvement for
fonts.

The running theme of the bug fixes is platform-specific issues, both
build and run-time.  Platforms with fixes include Sparc, AIX, Windows
(mingw), and Windows (MSVC8).  Memory leaks, valgrind issues, and PDF
issues round out our list.

It's come to light that changes in cairo 1.14 resulted in breakage on
MacOS X 10.4.  We've not yet determined whether to fix up the support,
or excise the 10.4-specific code and support only OS X 10.5 or newer.
Meantime, we'll only advertise cairo as working on OS X 10.5.

Features
--------
 * Improve xcb's handling of per-screen subpixel ordering.  If no
   Xft.rgba property is specified, default to the screen's subpixel
   order.

API Changes
-----------
None

Dependency Changes
------------------
None

Performance Optimizations
-------------------------
 * Improve performance of cpu_to_be32 and be32_to_cpu, making truetype
   subsetting of large fonts run about 15% faster.

Bug Fixes
---------

   (fdo bugs #89338, #89340, #89356, #89354)
 * Fix various documentation warnings and errors


Release 1.14.0 (2014-10-13 Bryce Harrington <bryce@osg.samsung.com>)
====================================================================
Hard to believe it's been over a year since our last release, but it's
not for lack of activity.  This release includes contributions of a wide
assortment of bug fixes, build system improvements, warnings cleanups,
codebase refactoring, test suite repairs, and static analysis work.

This release is lighter on features (compared with 1.12.10) but includes
a highly demanded rehaul of our image downscaling functionality, which
solves a serious problem experienced by Inkscape users when shrinking
embedded bitmaps in SVG files.  The new scaling algorithms are used by
the image backend and by other backends as needed for fallbacks.


Features
--------

  Filtering improvements for the image backend, in particular
  down-scaling of images produces filtered images that depend on all the
  pixels of the source. When using the image backend you get the
  following settings:

  CAIRO_FILTER_GOOD: uses a box filter for scales less than .75 in
    either direction. For scales larger than this, the same filter as
    CAIRO_FILTER_BILINEAR is used.

  CAIRO_FILTER_BEST: uses a Catmull-Rom filter always. When upscaling
    more than 2x this will produce anti-aliased square pixels, similar
    to OS/X.

  CAIRO_FILTER_GAUSSIAN: uses PIXMAN_FILTER_BEST, which in current
    pixman is the same as BILINEAR. (This is subject to change in the
    future).

  xlib and xcb also use the image fallback for GOOD/BEST filters, but
  note that other backends do not implement these filtering fixes yet,
  however other actions may cause them to use an image fallback which
  will cause these filters to be used.

  Improve handling of device transformation and scaling, allowing Cairo
  to now support scaling at a device level, permitting easier, more
  transparent HiDPI support.

  Support JBIG2 mime data in PDF.  This allows embedding of more
  compressed JPEG formats within PDF, rather than including the full
  uncompressed image.  Also, reduce the number of transparency groups
  used by PDF to keep the file size small and viewing/printing of the
  PDF fast.

  Expand the embedding section to include stencil mask support.

  Reorder font declarations to be in natural order.

  Update the Skia backend to build against current Skia (as of June
  2014).

  Drop Link-Time Optimization (LTO) support from build system.  This
  seems to have caused much trouble for unclear benefit, and most
  distros are reverting or disabling it anyway.

  Optimize VBO size on GL to 1M and to 16k for EGL.  This improves
  (theoretical) performance for desktop GLX use cases while avoiding
  hitting VBO memory size limitations on embedded devices.

API Changes
-----------

  cairo_surface_set_device_scale, cairo_surface_get_device_scale:

    Sets a scale that is multiplied to the device coordinates
    determined by the CTM when drawing to @surface. One common use for
    this is to render to very high resolution display devices at a scale
    factor, so that code that assumes 1 pixel will be a certain size
    will still work.

  cairo_egl_device_get_display, cairo_egl_device_get_context:

    Support get/set of EGLContext and EGLDisplay for egl-based cairo
    devices, similar to GLX.

Dependency Changes
------------------

  Cairo now requires glib 2.14 for its gobject helper functions,
  and pixman 0.30 for downscaling.


Bug fixes
---------

  Don't embed CMYK Jpeg images in svg.

  Fix tests to place output in proper location.

  Fix determination of alpha for all surfaces when recording.

  Extend oversize check to cairo_gl_surface_create_for_texture, so an
  error surface is returned if the texture is too large to render to.

  Fix embedding of mime data in PDF and PS files.

  Remove useless error handling in *_reply() functions in XCB.

  Fix a double-free exposed by multithreaded apps creating and
  destroying the same font concurrently.

  Fix corrupt stacks produced by bugs in operand emission for trace.

  Fix out of bounds array access in format cache for xlib

  Don't rename glyphs used by seac operator.  This can cause certain
  combined characters to use their decorations (e.g. umlauts on ö) to be
  lost during printing of PDFs using evince.
  https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=70364

  Fix crash on calling cairo_create with a finished surface

  Fix SSIZE_T definition problem when making with MSYS on Windows7

  Fix one off issue in gl context cleanup

  Fix usage of CAIRO_STACK_ARRAY_LENGTH

  Fix rectangle stroke with non rectilinear pen

  Fix imagemask with pattern source failure on some printers.  This bug
  could cause files converted using pdftops to fail for example on Ricoh
  printers, or opening in Adobe Distiller on Windows.
  https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=69485

  Fix whitespace in font names

  Fix page size in generated PDFs.  When printing using pdftocairo on
  larger page sizes, such as 11x17, the image would be cropped to letter
  size.
  https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=73452

  Fix path-currentpoint test by preserving current-point in
  copy_path()/append_path() sequence

  Fix generation of HTML in code docs for
  cairo-format-stride-for-width.  Raw HTML code was being passed
  to the browser, instead of displaying normally.
  https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=63257

  Fix spelling of "tessellator" throughout code.  We're using the
  American rather than British spelling of this word.
  https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=50411

  Fix crash in pixman_image_composite32

  Fix crash when trying to modify a (const) all-clipped cairo_clip_t
  https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=75819

  Add check_composite method to all compositors, to fix crashes in the
  test suite.

  Fix crash in Firefox when scrolling on certain pages.

  Fix memory leaks found by static analysis.

  Fix build of any2ppm if fork is not available.

  Fix broken build for Qt backend, due to missing libstdc++.

  Fix typo in two cairo_uint128 functions.  Fixes potential build issues
  on systems without a uint128 type.

  Fix build when --enable-pdf=no

  Fix cache_frozen assertions for Win32 print.

  Correctly check for xcb image surface for inplace upload

  Fix webkit-based web browser crashes due to empty boxes by skipping
  over them when tesselating.
