  • Optimization of Fontconfig Library Optimization of Fontconfig Library
    Michal Srb OPTIMIZATION OF FONTCONFIG LIBRARY OPTIMIZATION OF FONTCONFIG LIBRARY Michal Srb Bachelor's Thesis Spring 2017 Information Technology Oulu University of Applied Sciences ABSTRACT Oulu University of Applied Sciences Degree Programme in Information Technology, Internet Services Author: Michal Srb Title of the bachelor’s thesis: Optimization of Fontconfig Library Supervisor: Teemu Korpela Term and year of completion: Spring 2017 Number of pages: 39 + 1 appendix Fontconfig is a library that manages a database of fonts on Linux systems. The aim of this Bachelor's thesis was to explore options for making it respond faster to application's queries. The library was identified as a bottleneck during the startup of graphical applications. The typical usage of the library by applications was analyzed and a set of standalone benchmarks were created. The library was profiled to identify hot spots and multiple optimizations were applied to it. It was determined that to achieve an optimal performance, a complete rewrite would be necessary. However, that could not be done while staying backward compatible. Nevertheless, the optimizations applied to the existing fontconfig yielded significant performance improvements, up to 98% speedups in benchmarks based on the real-world usage. Keywords: fontconfig, optimization, benchmarking, profiling 3 CONTENTS 1 INTRODUCTION 6 2 BACKGROUND 7 1.1 Motivation 7 1.2 Fontconfig 8 1.2.1 Function 9 1.2.2 Configuration 11 2 ANALYSIS 12 2.1 Main entry functions 12 2.1.1 FcFontMatch 12 2.1.2 FcFontSort 14 2.1.3

  • The Comicsans Pacakge
    The comicsans package∗ Scott Pakin [email protected] December 19, 2013 1 Introduction The comicsans package makes Microsoft's Comic Sans font available to LATEX 2". comicsans supports all of the following: • Roman text, boldface text, SMALL-CAPS TEXT, and—with a little extra effort—italic text • Кирилица (римский шрифт, жирный шрифт, каллиграфический шрифт) • Mathematics using Comic Sans wherever possible: ′ log 2" 1 k y (x) 3 10 3 + k=x pk1 Comic Sans is a TrueType (TTF) font. As such, it works particularly well with pdfLATEX, which natively supports TrueType fonts. Some TEX distribu- tions also support dynamic conversion of TTF to PK (a bitmapped font format long used by TEX) so TEX backends other than pdfTEX can (indirectly) utilize TrueType fonts, as well. 2 Installation The following is a brief summary of the comicsans installation procedure: 1. Acquire and install the Comic Sans TrueType (.ttf) files. 2. [Optional] Generate the italic and/or Cyrillic variants of Comic Sans 3. Install the comicsans font files and refresh the TEX filename database. ∗This document corresponds to comicsans v1.0g, dated 2013/12/19. 1 4. Point the TEX backends to the comicsans files. Details are presented in Sections 2.1–2.4. 2.1 Acquire and install the TrueType files comicsans requires the Comic Sans and Comic Sans Bold TrueType files (comic.ttf and comicbd.ttf). You may already have these installed. (On Windows, look in C:\WINDOWS\Fonts for Comic Sans MS (True- Type) and Comic Sans MS Bold (TrueType).) If not, see if a package called msttcorefonts is available for your operating system or operating-system distribution.

  • Creating Truetype Fonts Based on METAFONT
    The METATYPE Project: Creating TrueType Fonts Based on METAFONT Serge Vakulenko Cronyx Engineering, Moscow, Russia [email protected] http://www.vak.ru/proj/metatype Abstract The purpose of the METATYPE project is the development of freeware TrueType fonts for the general user community. The METAFONT language was chosen for creating character glyphs. Currently, glyph images are converted to cubic outlines using a bitmap tracing algorithm, and then to conic outlines. Two font families are currently under development as part of the METATYPE project: the TeX font family, based on Computer Modern fonts by Donald E. Knuth, retaining their look and feel. A rich set of typefaces is available, including Roman, Sans Serif, Monowidth and Math faces with Normal, Bold, Italic, Bold Italic, Narrow and Wide variations; and second, the Maestro font family, which is designed as a Times look-alike. It also uses Computer Modern sources, but with numerous modifications. Résumé Le but du projet METATYPE est le développement de fontes TrueType libres pour la commu- nauté générale d’utilisateurs. Le langage de programmation METAFONT est utilisé pour créer les glyphes. Actuellement, les glyphes sont convertis d’abord en contours cubiques, en utilisant un al- gorithme d’auto-traçage de bitmap, et ensuite en contours coniques. Deux familles de fontes sont actuellement en développement, dans le cadre du projet META- TYPE : la famille «TeX font», basée sur les fontes Computer Modern de Donald E. Knuth, et proposant du romain, du sans empattements, du mono-chasse, et les fontes mathématiques, dans les styles : régulier, gras, italique, gras italique, étroitisé et élargi ; la famille «Maestro», qui est un clone du Times.
