[pdftex-Patches][2087] Support for CMap namespaces
by pdftex-patches＠sarovar.org 28 Aug '08

28 Aug '08

Patches item #2087, was opened at 2008-08-28 08:17 Status: Open Priority: 3 Submitted By: Vasile Gaburici (vga) Assigned to: Nobody (None) Summary: Support for CMap namespaces Resolution: None Group: v1.40.0 Category: Fonts Initial Comment: There are a couple of LaTeX packages out there (cmap and mmap) that provide CMaps. They don't work as well as \pdfglyphtounicode, i.e. virtual fonts don't get CMaps at all (the CMap is included in the PDF but not referenced), and otftotfm-installed fonts lack the CMap entries for the ligatures that otftotfm sneaks in empty slots. As you know, \pdfglyphtounicode fixes these problems. On the other hand, these two packages let the user specify a CMap for each LaTeX encoding, so the user ca give different Unicode values to the same PS glyph name in different LaTeX encodings. Of course that works properly only if the fonts invoked by the different LaTeX encodings are different; otherwise only one can win the \pdffontattr. A compelling application of this feature are CMaps that set math code points (usually above BMP) for TeX math fonts; those glyphs have exactly the same names as in text fonts /A etc. Adding namespaces to \pdfglyphtounicode makes those two packages obsolete in their current implementation. Another advantage of namespaces is the ability to (reliably) fix TrueType font CMaps. The troublesome glyphs are usually ligatures that don't have a Unicode entry (Th, ti, tf, ffb, etc.), which otftotfm writes as /indexZZZ in the enc file. Putting those in a per-font namespace avoids any potential clashes. So, I've patched pdftex to provide namespaces using the following syntax extension: the first argument of \pdfglyphtounicode can now take additional forms: \pdfglyphtounicode{fnt:tex-font-name/ps-glyph-name}{...} \pdfglyphtounicode{enc:ps-enc-name/ps-glyph-name}{...} Since fonts for which the built-in encoding is used happen to be exactly those that have multiple design sizes (cmr, stmary etc.), using a separate ps-enc-name for each is not helpful. Instead, the 'enc' namespace for those is obtained by dropping any final digits from the font name, e.g. cmr10 has PS encoding cmr (for CMap purposes only). The search policy is to first search the font namespce, then the encoding, and finally the global namespace, for which the syntax remains unchanged. All these namespace are implemented in the same avl tree; just using the above strings as key names. In theory this makes the search 3 times slower, but that particular phase of pdftex hardly takes any time, so it seemed premature to implement any optimization. Some usage examples: % make the ti ligature searchable in Calibri regular \pdfglyphtounicode{fnt:calibly1--base/index415}{0074 0069} % go crazy with Unicode math; TeX math italic gives above-BMP math A \pdfglyphtounicode{enc:cmmi/A}{D835 DC34} % UTF16BE required Note that search behavior for math letters varies with pdf viewers. Acrobat implements only canonical equivalence, so you need to enter the exact code point, and copy/paste preserves the code points, so you can paste into a LaTeX document if it's using utf8x input encoding. Evince implements compatibility equivalence, so it's easier to find those math As by searching for plain A, but they also copy/paste as plain A. You can use pdftotext however, which uses the same poppler backend, to have the code points are preserved. I'm not really advocating Unicode math letters, but now they're easily supported in pdftex -- no need for manual CMaps anymore. BTW, \pdfglyphtounicode now really needs to be documented in the manual, so people would stop writing (buggy) CMaps by hand. I volunteer to do it if you accept the patch :) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: http://sarovar.org/tracker/?func=detail&atid=495&aid=2087&group_id=106

Re: [NTG-pdftex] Fwd: Rebuilding pdftex gives ---! Must increase the hyph_size (Fatal format file error; I'm stymied)
by Thanh Han The 27 Aug '08

pdftex (and any program that uses kpathsea) can be run from any location, but one has to set TEXMFCNF to the right location (and probably edit texmf.cnf slightly). Personally I use TEXMFCNF=/opt/texlive/texmf-config/web2c:/opt/texlive/texmf-main/web2c where /opt/texlive/texmf-main/web2c/texmf.cnf is the original texlive texmf.cnf, and I put my changes /opt/texlive/texmf-config/web2c/texmf.cnf to override a few tl settings.

yes, you need to change SELFAUTOPARENT to the actual path to texlive installation dir, too. What I gave in my previous was rather an example on how you can set TEXMFCNF to an explicit location. But this discussion belongs to texlive list, does it? Thanh On Tue, Aug 26, 2008 at 09:11:44PM +0300, Vasile Gaburici wrote: > There's no web2c under texmf-dist.

you can try to compile pdftex from sources, but without your patch. 1. if it works, then the problem is likely with the patch. 2. if not, the problem is likely with your tex config.

Fwd: Rebuilding pdftex gives ---! Must increase the hyph_size (Fatal format file error; I'm stymied)

I'm not sure that anyone reads pdftex(a)tug.org, so I'm trying my luck on this list: ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Vasile Gaburici <vgaburici(a)gmail.com> Date: Tue, Aug 26, 2008 at 2:23 PM Subject: Rebuilding pdftex gives ---! Must increase the hyph_size (Fatal format file error; I'm stymied) To: "pdftex(a)tug.org" <pdftex(a)tug.org> I've applied a small patch (unrelated to hyphenation) to pdftex 1.40.9 sources and I've successfully recompiled it. But when I try to use it against the TeXLive 2008 tree (without overwriting the old binary), I'm getting this: fmtutil: /home/vga/.texlive2008/texmf-var/web2c/pdftex/pdflatex.fmt installed. ---! Must increase the hyph_size (Fatal format file error; I'm stymied) Changing the hyph_size in texmf.cnf doesn's help. Any hints what could be wrong?

/Alt and /ActualText EMC should be versioned as PDF-1.5
by Vasile Gaburici 22 Aug '08

22 Aug '08

According to PDF 1.7 spec pages 942-944 a pdf that includes marked-content sequences containing /Alt and /ActualText should be versioned as PDF-1.5. Pdftex from Texlive 2008 (pdfTeX 3.1415926-1.40.9-2.2) only versions it as PDF-1.4. Thanks, Vasile
