help/documentation for 21 of the 25 glyf Table errors were not released. #15

A better listing of the 4 documented errors: $ grep -A 4 -E '(A|E|P|W|I)11' GenerateFValData/OurData.xml | grep -E '(11|shortDesc)' |
|
The missing graphics and texts from the 21 glyf errors probably contribute a great deal to why the current chm is less than 1/2 the size of both the 2003 and 2009. 404716 fontvalidatorhelp.chm from 2003 |
|
Okay, recovered those files from the 2009 chm. That covers 18 of the 21 . The 2009 chm has a I1111 entry, which seems to correspond to A1111; A1113 does not seem to be used by the current code. So the undocumented error codes are down to just A1110 and A1112. The new merged/rebuilt chm is now 419288 bytes in size, which is quite a lot more reasonable. |
|
Also, there is no difference between the 2003 and 2009 versions of those 18 pages. |
|
Also, diff'ing the common part of 2009 and current (minus the part I know I added), there is no notable difference other than many "'" changed to "'" - except E2315. E2315 in 2009 was incomplete and current is. So this just suggest that the private 2009 binary bundle I got is very close to what was eventually open-sourced. I am okay with accepting that that was no newer binary build than 2009 (i.e. the small E2315 diff never got made into a newer binary bundle). |

The additional glyf test related documentation is at: Not sure about the graphics, but those html files in HinTak@812a561 should be eventually auto-generated from GenerateFValData/OurData.xml . |
…ected errors" itself should be just informative See also microsoft#15 about I1111 vs A1111. This change seems to be just the completion of an already planned change.

Dont' think there is any more to be done; closing issues for the upcoming v2.1 |
Rebuilt after I2131 Rebuild after recovering stuff from old chm, and renaming W6013 to W6019. rebuild after adding E6071 rebuild chm added W6029.htm/W6030.htm See also microsoft#15

I am preparing my talk next week on the Font Validator and includes a section about rendering, the glyf table test and rasterization test in particular, and try to make sure that I understand everything.

The glyf table test currently checks for 25 kind of errors, but only 4 of them are in the released documentation.
I consulted the 2003 binary's bundled chm and the private 2009's chm, and the 21 errors are documented there.
There are also a lot of figures for those 21 errors describing them.
I can recover the figures and the texts for the description of those 21 errrors from the chm's, but I'd prefer to have the source of them.
The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
