This is a long one.
The problem with the last patch I submitted was a no brainer.
Instead of:
math_parse_s_ft2font_ps = math_parse_s_ft2font_common('PS')
should have been:
math_parse_s_ps = math_parse_s_ft2font_common('PS')
I am now in the process of creating a UnicodeFonts class, and a
derived BakomaUnicodeFonts, which is a hack to add "unicode support"
to the
Bakoma fonts. Is BakomaUnicodeFonts worth of implementing?
I must say that I had a lot of problems in reading/understanding the code
of the current Fonts classes, especially regarding the ambiguous usage
of the word "font". I also tried to make a common parent class in order to
abstract the common properties of the BakomaTrueTypeFonts and
BakomaPSFonts classes (something along the way of what I did with the
math_parse_s_ft2font_common class), but I hit the wall - there was a lot
of black magic under the hood, IMHO.
So I decided to make naming changes in the new Unicode aware classes,
and that's the purpose of writing this email before I got the new classes to
work. So please John, do comment on this, because I don't know whether
I'm breaking something, and whether the names are chosen appropriately.
The changes I made, make no effect on the current code - that is, everything
still works. I'm sending you a patch against the SVN tree. I also added
the automatically genarated tex2uni etc. files, and they are now incorporated
in the patch.
What should we do with the script that generates those file. Should I try to
integrate it into the setup/build process?
These are the new imports:
from matplotlib.tex2uni import tex2uni
from matplotlib.type12uni import type12uni
These are the new top-level functions I defined in mathtext:
def font_open(filename):
ext = filename.rsplit('.',1)[1]
if ext == 'afm':
return AFM(filename)
else:
return FT2Font(filename)
def get_unicode_index(symbol):
"""get_unicode_index(symbol) -> integer
Return the integer index from the Unicode table of an Unicode symbol
"""
try:# This will succeed if symbol is a single unicode char
return ord(symbol)
except TypeError:
pass
try:# Is symbol a TeX symbol (i.e. \alpha)
return tex2uni[symbol]
except KeyError:
pass
try:# Is symbol a Type1 name (i.e. degree)? If not raise error
return type12uni[symbol]
except KeyError:
message = """'%(symbol)s' is not a valid Unicode character or
TeX/Type1 symbol"""%locals()
raise ValueError, message
And finally, these are the new classes:
====
class UnicodeFonts(Fonts):
"""An abstract base class for handling Unicode fonts.
Specific terminology:
* fontface: an FT2Font object, corresponding to a facename
* facename: a string that defines the (type)face's name - 'rm', 'it' etc.
* filename: a string that is used for generating a fontface object
* symbol*: a single Unicode character or a TeX command,
or to be precise, a TeX symbol command like \alpha (but not \frac) or
even a Type1/PS name
* filenamesdict: a dict that maps the face's name to the filename:
filenamesdict = { 'cal' : 'fontnamecal.ext',
'rm' : 'fontnamerm.ext',
'tt' : 'fontnamett.ext',
'it' : 'fontnameit.ext',
None : 'fontnamesmth.ext'}
filenamesdict should be declared as a class atribute
* glyphdict: a dict used for caching of glyph specific data
* fontsdict: a dict of facename -> fontface pairs
* charmaps: a dict of facename -> charmap pairs
* glyphmaps: a dict of facename -> glyphmap pairs. A glyphmap is an
inverted charmap
* output: a string in ['BMP','SVG','PS'], coresponding to the backends
* index: Fontfile specific index of a glyph/char. Taken from a charmap.
