Follow-up example to the previous post A slightly more intricate example, this time showing the “before and after” effect of vowel adjustments. Again, this was achieved with a HarfBuzz-based pre-processor. TeX file generated using HarfBuzz Again, TeX code shown on…
Introduction Using an external pre-processor (built using HarfBuzz) you can achieve affects that are not possible (or, at least, not easy) directly with XeTeX. Here’s a simple example of colouring Arabic vowels – this example is likely to be possible…
Introduction: A very brief post This is an extremely short post to note one way of building the superb HarfBuzz OpenType shaping library as a static library on Windows (i.e., a .lib) – using an elderly version of Visual Studio…
Introduction This post could easily turn into the length of a small book if I covered all the background material that may be required for a full understanding. I simply cannot justify the time it would take to explore everything…
Notes and comments are inline with the C code A fairly basic example to explain a bit about libotf: just to “get started”. To run this, I built libotf (and FreeType) as static libraries and linked against them.
A simple example to get you started Based on code generated by the superb RegexBuddy software (the price is great value!), here’s a simple example of using the PCRE regular expression library to search a UTF-8 text buffer for strings…
