6 years ago

examples/ShowFont.pl added to list out many font file glyphs.
examples.bat, examples/README, examples/examples.output updated.

lib/PDF/Builder.pm [ref RT 121912/#67 and also RT 41971/#5] fix outlines
method (thanks to "futuramedium"). Update test case into an example, and
add to examples.bat, MANIFEST, examples/README, examples/examples.output,
and (new) examples/055_outlines and examples/resources/samples_55.pdf.

lib/PDF/Builder.pm, lib/PDF/Builder/Resource/BaseFont.pm,
lib/PDF/Builder/Resource/Font/SynFont.pm, examples/021_synfonts
[ref RT 120048/#47] fixes for synthetic fonts (via "futuramedium"). Some
items carried over to new issues #79 and #81, and this one closed.
021_synfonts make cleaner selection of what to run (which font types,
which fonts within a type, which variants).

lib/PDF/Builder.pm [ref RT 122393/#72] further work on diagnosing reported
problem. If this was actually a PDF::API2/Builder problem at one time, and
not simply a corrupted local font issue, it has apparently been cleared
up. Documented supported CJK names and aliases in Builder's POD.

lib/PDF/Builder/Annotation.pm, examples/040_annotation,
examples/041_annot_fileattach (new), examples/resources/pod2htmd.temp
(new), examples/resources/sample.txt (new), MANIFEST, DEPRECATED,
examples.bat, examples/README, examples/examples.output, t/annotate.t
ref RT 117942/#41.
Extensions to annotation methods plus new file attachment annotation code
contributed by Johan. There are still some minor glitches in the behavior,
including the "border" specification not working, and inconsistent icon
size, so I'm leaving the issue open for now. Also, the annotation pdfile()
method has been deprecated and replaced by pdf_file().

lib/PDF/Builder.pm, lib/PDF/Builder/Resource/XObject/Image/TIFF_GT.pm (new),
lib/PDF/Builder/Resource/XObject/Image/TIFF/File_GT.pm (new), MANIFEST,
KNOWN_INCOMP, t/tiff.t, lib/PDF/Builder/Resource/XObject/Image/TIFF.pm,
lib/PDF/Builder/Lite.pm ref RT 118047/#42.
Use Jeffrey's Graphics::TIFF wrapper around libtiff.a to simplify and
correct many bugs in TIFF support. As libtiff.a is not available on all
systems, add this as an extension (_GT modules) and have Builder.pm
select which one to use (preferably the new Graphics::TIFF-using version,
with fallback to the old pure Perl version, which has not been fixed).
This can be overridden (force old version) with the -nouseGT option (see
t/tiff.t).

lib/PDF/Builder.pm, lib/PDF/Builder/Resource/XObject/Image/TIFF_GT.pm,
lib/PDF/Builder/Resource/XObject/Image/TIFF/File_GT.pm,
lib/PDF/Builder/Basic/PDF/File.pm [ref RT 84665/#2] updates and fixes
while working on TIFF G3/G4 compression bug.
