Added some functionality, but more importantly corrected two nasty
font bugs.
- Added options
-bp
, to set initial bitmap
size based on paper sizes and -Qp
to list the
sizes available. Added option -PC
to turn off
cropping, which is useful if you want output of a certain
size. - Fixed a bug which caused fonts loaded at magnified sizes to be
requested at the wrong size, even though, when they were found to be
missing, the correct font-generation command was being issued.
- Fixed the longish-standing bug to do with spacing at smaller font
sizes: cmr7 and cmr12 now look as their maker intended.
- Corrected a bug which caused page-selection to be done
subtly wrongly (font selections were being ignored, and byte
values of 140 in DVI data would have caused merry hell).
- configure script: The configuration for PNG now doesn't
rely on a libpng version better than 0.96. Font-generation
is now enabled by default, despite the potential for
confusion, which should be covered in the documentation.
- Added better diagnostics to InputByteStream.cc, so that if it goes
wrong, you're given at least a clue why.
