Adobe Tin? #2

Closed twardoch closed 8 years ago

twardoch commented 8 years ago

Does this project have any relation to Adobe Tin? Adobe published a fairly complete C++ parser code in 2008-2010, under a liberal license (MIT-style I think). Is there a reason why this is better? What's the differences?

Tin does not parse outline of glyphs. That's why I and @clerkma started this.

twardoch commented 8 years ago

I see. Perhaps you might want to borrow/adapt the CFF portions from Tin. I see that your project doesn't even mention CFF, and as we know, CFF parsing is possibly the most complex aspect of OpenType. The CFF table is quite self-contained anyway.

@twardoch CFF is not in wave one, but it will be introduced later.

Closed.
