The Font Creator Program(3)

字体修改软件的说明书

Kerning glyphs

Preserve unknown tables.

Preserve hinting in font and/ or glyphs. Hinting will only be removed when editing a glyph.

Reserved Postscript names are mapped to the .notdef name.

FCP now 'highlights' unused glyphs (actually a little box is shown in the glyph overview window).

1.2 [May 26, 1999]

New advanced feature Image to Glyph conversion added - available from Contours->Import Image...

Finally you can add your signature, logo and complete handwriting into your own fonts!

Added High-Logic [HL] to the Vendor List!

After saving a font file the font is assumed to be unmodified. This improves the functionality added in

version 1.1.4.

1.1.4 [May 15, 1999]

Improved the Splash screen.

Overlapping points are now drawn as one point. This prevents an even number of points on the exact

same position to hide themselves out.

Improved the Change setting for Unicode <-> Symbol.

Now FCP does a better job of remembering what fonts have been modified. In other words, fonts that

not have been changed are now closed without the annoying warning of "saving the font Y/N?".

(Thanks to Gwidon S. Naskrent). One more thing; because FCP isn't able to see wheather there's

changed anything in a 'General' menu item, FCP assumes the font has been changed if one of those menu items has been selected.

Fixed a bug that occurred when closing all windows at ones. It will still occur when you have opened

more than 100 fonts at ones.

About the Transformation Toolbar - changed the minimum value of the Size edit boxes from -32767 to

1 and changed the direction from the y-axis.

1.1.3 [April 22, 1999]

Fixed a strange bug that occurred when using a mousewheel after FCP was shell executed because an

associated file got opened.

Finished the toolwindow mentioned in release 1.1.2. Jeff Williams encouraged me to make this feature

so manual changes could be made.

Added 'snap to grid' support. (Gave it a higher priority thanks to Jeff Lee)

Changed the way the actual grid point size behaves. Now it really helps when trying to line up those

long lines.

The functionality of the 'New contour' feature has been changed. Now the user has to design the

contour (manually draw the points). This makes it a lot easier to quickly add contours.

Also a lot of small changes and some internal restructuring has taken place.

The 'testing a font' feature inside the Font Creator Program now supports printing.

1.1.2 [April 9, 1999]

Double-click in the Glyph Edit window now changes from contour mode to point mode and back. Multiple Undo and Redo Boxes like MS products.

Associating the .ttf extension to FCP was never a problem but now it is able to restore the association

to the previous application.

Finally fixed a bug that sometimes occurred while pasting a large number of glyphs, contours or points. New Floating and dockable toolbars so now FCP has an even more professional interface.

Added a checkbox that specifies whether the Font Creator Program should redraw the editing screen

while moving contours and points.

Started with a toolwindow where you can edit contours and points by typing coordinates etc. This is not

finished yet...
