- Tcommaaccent (uni0162) is now called Tcedilla
- uni021B is now called tcommaaccent
- uni021A is now called Tcommaaccent
- the locl-OpenType-substitution for Romanian wasn't changed, because it already
worked correctly
- orthogonal is now called uni221F
- sun is now called uni263C
- I had to move that .cap-variants of the accents to the PUA, because they
covered space where Unicode in between defined new characters. So I
systematically moved the .cap-Accents to:
grave.cap uni0358 -> uniE358
acute.cap uni0359 -> uniE359
circumflex.cap and so forth
caron.cap
breve.cap
hungarumlaut.cap
space_uni030F.cap
breveinvertedcmb.cap
breve.cyrcap 360
breve.cyr
dieresis.cap
hookabovecomb.cap
dotaccent.cap
(regular, italic)
- new point accent at uni0358
- new Mark for uni0358 in many O/o-characters
- improved support for POJ (Taiwan transcription)
- now kerning for kernclasspair p.sc + a.sc
- first use of contextual chaining substitution:
- when a combining accent follows an i, the dotlessi is used to prevent an
accent crash
- when one of the accented or leftwarding glyphs such as (ä, V) follow an f,
a short neck version of f (f.alt) is being used for optical reasons
- Added U+033B COMBINING SQUARE BELOW
- there was the "space" in a left kern class (together with dot, etc.). This
resulted in too few visible room when a "space" should seperate a word from the
now beginning quotation.

Changes to version 2.9 (unreleased) regular(-) & italic(/) & capitals (C)
(20080619)
- There was a compiling-problem with the LinLibertine_Re-2.8.14.otf that caused
a unusable GSUB-table. Though outline-information seemed to be unaffected MacOSX
didn’t want to intall it. This version should be without this bug, the reason
for the old bug could not be discovered.
- Change in the OpenType-Substitution table (different order of interpretation:
sups and sinf should be substituted even if oldstyle flag is also set.
/ True Cyrrillic italics for the italic variant
/ new “a” for the italic, also thinner p, n, m and e
/ Some stylistic improvements for italic numbers
/ new @ for the italic
- further kerning
/ improved accented characters in the italic variant
- Q’s tail is now more harmonic and looks as drawn out of the O and not as just
clipped to the bottom
- Qu (Q_u) has been improved and is now standard ligature
- new form for s_t- and c_t-ligature, Thanks to Nathan!
- OpenType-GSUB-table has been improved. New functionality for Romanian and
Moldavian (comma-accent instead of cedilla), for Turky (idotaccent.sc is chosen
when Tyrkish is default language, otherwiese i.sc is the small capital form
used; f_i_()-ligatures are set off in Turkish because it hinders the
differenciation of f-i and f-dotlessi in that language.
/ Italic variant now uses the same perfect OpenType-GSUB as the regular.
/ new a.sc for the italic. Adding missing sc-glyphs, bring others to the latest
design.
Changes to version 2.8.14 regular(|) & italic(/) & capitals (20080619)
- TTF-Hinting improvements because of better TTF-Instruction of FontForge

Changes to version 2.7.9 regular(|) & italic(/) & capitals (20071228)
- new Hinting! Now it is possible to use Libertine with Word on Windows
properly. The shape on screen should be clearer now on every system!
- new kern pairs for better typography
- some wrong contour directions corrected
- many small corrections
- OT "fina" has been removed from wordend-sigma
- countless small improvements
- kerning for Caps variant
- the conflict (that came up lately with a library update) between underlined
and regular is diminished
Changes to version 2.6.9 regular(|) & italic(/) & capitals (20070423)
Gernerally:
- Symbols for „page“, „graph“, „picture“ and „table“ added
- Oldstyle numbers (minuscle numbers) were just contained as
proportionals. Somebody wanted them also as table numbers. Ladder became
standard oldstyles now. Some of these glyphs look somewhat thinner to fit them
on the fixed width.
-bold italic variant had a wrong style entry which seemed to confuse
Mac's fonthandling, also other style confusions should be fixed now
-bold italic also had wrong metrics which resulted in a cutoff of glyph
parts and wrong line spacing.
German interests:
-großes Eszett hinzugefügt (uni1E9E) entsprechend Kapitälchen-Eszett
-kleines Eszett so verändert, dass es zum großen passt (ſz statt ſs),
das vorige Eszett ist als germandbls.alt weiterenthalten
-Im Stilsatz ss03 kann für Schweizer nun automatisch von Eszetts auf ss
umgestellt werden.
-die dt. ÄÖÜ sind nun von der Alternativposition an die rechte Stelle
gerückt. Für die nichtdeutschsprachige Nutzung empfehlen sich jetzt die (vormals
standart, jetzt aber auf die Alternativposition gewechselten Akzentuierten)
Cyrillic:
Due to A. Panovs help hopefully a lot of design impriovements for the
cyrrilic alphabet.
Mainly: Є Љ Њ Б З Ф Ш Щ Ъ Ы Ь Э Ю Ө (and its small letter derivates) For
details:
("Ь" in regular typeface has extra contour at left bottom.)
--corrected--
Lower part of "Ь" and "Ъ" (and for lowercase letters "ь", "ы",
"ъ",
"ѣ") differ. I think the letter "Ь" (or "ь" for lowercase)
should be
used as base for others.
("Ф" is still slightly asymmetric with respect to vertical axis.
It may produce artefacts with rendering.)
--corrected--
(Middle vertical stems in "Ш", "Щ" have not rounded lower
edges.)
--corrected--
("Ш", "ш" are not quite symmetric agains middle vertical axis
(all
typefaces). "Щ", "щ" must be updated accordingly.)
--corrected--
(The tongue in "Э" can have two stylistic variants: straight and
tilde-like. )
OK, then tilde-like.
(The designer decides which version should be selected. Some
other letters should follow this decision: U+0472, U+04E8, U+0404, etc.)
--corrected--
(The capital letters U+0472 and U+04E8 usually are identical,
excepting the case of archaic (before ca. XVIII century) form of U+0472.)
--corrected--
(The U+0473 frequently is narrower than "o" and U+04E9. In case
of a tilde-tongue in "Э" a tongue in U+0404 is not flipped, i.e. it has the same
diriction as in "Э".)
--corrected--
Small Caps:
- Some changes here for better spacing.
- FO-overlap (due to wrong kerning entry) removed
Bolded:
- Complete revision of the bold version. Should result in a clearer
shape and better thin-width-contrast
OpenType:
- Due to better support in the FontForge editor the OpenType-tables have
been completely redefined.
Changes to version 2.5.9 regular(|) & italic(/) & capitals (20070423)
- countless improvements as usual
- some unicode standard optimizations (NUL-glyph, .notdef, ...)
- U+0180 group of charakters were sometimes not the way the latest unicode wants
them so we changed them. This refers mainly to the differentiation of capital
and small letters
- Vietnamese horned vokals have been changed the way, that the horn is now
always at the same hight. All accented vietnamese glyphs were revised
- some optic improvements in placement of accents
- added a capital variant of hookabove and changed all the capital letters to
this new hookabove form. It is wider and lower for better line-holding
- kerning was greatly improved, i.e.: Kombinations like "f)", "f?", "(j"...
shouldn't overlap anymore. Capital letter words should now be better spaced.
- There was one wrong cyrrilic letter Lje (U+0409).
And there were some correct objections to the handling of the downgoing serif in
Dzhe/dzhe, De/de, Tse/tse, Shcha/shcha. These now have the same depth and
similar form
- Some small changes in cyrrilics most complex letter Zhe
but also in Ef
in the hardening and softening signs (should not look like a reversed P but like
the bud of the B),
Ya shouldn't look like a flipped R,
be had a too right tail,
breve.cyr didn't look cyrrillic enough,
ef shouldn't be too calligraphic,
dje/she have now x-hight-bars
- due to a bug U+1fc7 (an accented eta) was missing
- some eagled-eyed person had seen that the U+721 was not at its place
- perthousandzero added at U+E00E for full LaTex-support
- some accented smallcaps added to basic font table for LaTex-support (This
doesn't affect the Caps-version of Libertine, which already had all these
glyphs)
- removed a cyrrilic opentype entry that substituted N-o with the numberligature
because a stupid GNOME environment read out this table entry on a Spanish system
and messed up typography...
Changes to version 2.4.9 regular(|) & italic(/) & capitals (20070309)
- many countless improvements
- some letters are slimer now: a, k, c, r
this is especially useful for languages with longs words. German in the first
place...
- on screen letters with round parts should now look more equal on screen
-C, D, G, S have now better (shorter) serifs which are more useful for the
standart printing size of 12-10pt
- the thinnest line should now have a width of at least 50 (improvements for
12-10pt printing)
- the whole range from U+180 -> U+01BF has been reworked
-small improvements in the IPA-Extensions
-for better acception of the old greek we changed the inverted breve to a tilde
which is more widely used..., accents also have received some improvements
-The cyrillic alphabeth has had again great changes due to unsatisfied users. We
now have more equal cyrillic serifs, some letters are thinner some wider,
spacing has been renewed
-p,i have now horizontal serifs in the cyrillic
-the bold regular is greatly improved. It's now fatter, looks more elegant
- the curive has also improvements:
J is now better
many things are corresponding to the improvements in the regular
-improvements in the capital variant
Changes to version 2.3.2regular(|) & italic(/) & capitals (20060920)
Countless improvements...
-especially for the italic, the kyrillic
-polish accents ogonki are now what they should be
-new: hebrew alphabeth
-numbers
-accents brought to one hight (some dotted chars weren't)
-Same hight for capitals (already one point difference can the letter look
higher on screen. For print this doesn't play any role...
-superior/inferior numbers improved
-ae looks now different: mor organic. If you don't like this. Theres also an old
variant at the end of the font
-ij ligature isn't connected anymore
-greek accented chars improved (accents should now be optically at the same
position), kappa improved
-planet signs added
-Sternkreiszeichen hinzugefügt
-male, female,... improved

02C4 (MODIFIER LETTER UP ARRORHEAD), * raised articulation (-> 005E ^
circumflex accent, 2303 ^ up arrowhead). Siehe
http://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/U02B0.pdf
Wenn ich in die PDF-Datei schaue, sehen 02C2 (<), 02C3 (>), 02C4 (^) und
02C4 (v) größer aus als 02C4 (^) und 02C5 (v). Vielleicht sollte man für
02C2 bis 02C3 einfach ein gedrehtes '<' benutzen?
- Zeichenbreite im Block "SPACE MODIFIER LETTERS (02B0–02FF)"
(http://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/U02B0.pdf) ist zum Teil verkehrt.
Diese Zeichen sollen alle eine endliche Breite haben (im Gegensatz zu
den COMBINING DIACRITICAL MARKS (0300-036F), die auf/unter einem Zeichen
sitzen sollen). Insbesondere:
- zu Breit: hochgestellte h, w und y
- viel zu schmall: T, _|_ und + (etc.)
- Zeichenbreite/Position im Block "COMBINING DIACRITICAL MARKS (0300-036F)
http://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/U0300.pdf
Bei den meisten Zeichen stimmt die Breite/Position, bis auf:
- 0306 COMBINING BREVE -> zu weit rechts
- 030B COMBING DOUBLE ACUTE ACCENT -> zu weit rechts.
- 0327 COMBINING CEDILLA -> viel, viel zu weit rechts!
- 0338 COMBINING LONG SOLIDUS OVERLY
-> Ich würde den Strich entweder etwas nach unten verlängern oder nach
etwas nach unten schieben; oder etwas nach links schieben? Jedenfalls
sieht "o" + U0338 (= ca. ø) komisch aus.
- Vielleicht ein klein bißchen zu weit rechts: 0323, 0330, 0331, 0342,
- 0384 GREEK TONOS -> Das Zeichen sollte normal breit sein und kein
"combining" Akzent.
- 03F1 GREEK LUNATE SIGMA SYMBOL = GREEK SMALL LETTER LUNATE SIGMA ->
Das Zeichen sollte anders als Sigma aussehen und zwar ohne den Bogen
unten (ca, wie "c", oft spitz zulaufend).
- 03F4 GREEK CAPITAL THETA SYMBOL -> anders als Theta, durchgehender
Strich in der Mitte
- 03F5 GREEK LUNATE EPSILON SYMBOL = straight epsilon -> Wie der Name
schon sagt ein nicht geschwungenes Epsilon. In der Physik benutzt man
oftmals beide Epsilons das gerade und das geschwungene.
(03F6 GREEK REVERSED LUNATE EPSILON = reversed straight epsilon -> bitte
das gedrehte 03F5 hinzufügen)
- 03F9 GREEK CAPITAL LUNATE SIGMA SYMBOL -> sollte anders als Sigma
aussehen, klassischerweise wie "C" (oft ohne Serifen und spitz zulaufend)
NUMBER FORMS
- 215F "1/ " -> Man sollte wohl die Breite so ändern, daß "1/" +
tiefgestellte Zahl (2080 bis 2089) gut aussehen.
> Durch Kerning gelöst
Fehlten:
- Griechisch-Block: 03DA-03E1 fehlen (Archaische Buchstaben)

ich zu klein.

=> the family has therefore now finally all faces it classically needs, juhu!
;-)
-further small corrections in all faces
- I created TrueTypeInstructed variants of LinuxLibertine named "LinuxLibertine
T" they can be therefore installed paralelly to the unhinted variants.
Note 1: I recommend all users of OpenOffice 2.0.x on Linux to use the unhinted
variants. On my linux-systems the unhinted variant is automaticly hinted and
better looking than the hinted! On Windows-Systems -- nevertheless -- the
unhinted variant is ugly on screen. Here you should take the instructed/hinted
variant.
Note 2: Hints (in the meaning of TrueTypeInstructions) do not have any effect on
printing.

Changes to version 1.0.1-10pt regular(|) & italic(/) & capitals (20050323)
| all Capitals are 60pt less high
| ? question mark is slightly thinner and less high now
| uni022C (O mit tilde und Macron): Das Macron (¯) ist etwas zu weit rechts
| uni022D (o mit Tilde und Macron): dito
| uni0210 (R mit ") die " sind zuweit links
(beim r und u mit " könnten sie noch ein Tick weiter rechts sein)
| uni0307 (dotaccent) der Punkt könnte etwas höher sein
| uni0308 (dieresis) hat positive Breite
| 0309 (combininghook) ggf. zu hoch, Breite nicht null
| 030C (umgedrehtes ^): positive Breite
| 0327 (cedille): positive Breite
| 0323 combining dot below: vielleicht noch ein bißchen nach links?
Anmerkung: Wenn man jetzt noch die Diacritical Marks verschiebt, dann verändern
sie sich in allen anderen Akzentuierten Zeichen mit, wo sie durch Referenzen
eingebunden sind. Daher habe ich die Verschiebungen ersteinmal nicht
vorgenommen.
|Beim kleinen psi [03C8] kann ich mich nicht recht an den schrägen Mittelstrich
gewöhnen.)
| 1E48: Das _ beim N sollte wohl etwas länger sein oder etwas nach links
verschoben werden
| Bei Greek Extended (1F00 bis 1FFF) ist bei 'E und 'H (allein und mit
verschiedenen weiteren Akzenten) das ' vor der position 0, und
überschreibt somit das vorherige Zeichen. Das ist wohl nicht Absicht,
oder? Analog bei `I (1FDA).
| uni2102: Das C (für die Menge komplexe Zahlen) sollte einen
Doppelstrich haben, wie deine H,Q,Z,R
| 213D bis 2149: das gilt auch für die Zeichen hier (gamma, Gamma, Pi,
Sigma, D, d, e und j)
| 2153 bis 215A: Die Brüche 1/3, 2/3, 1/5, 2/5, 3/5, 4/5, 1/6, 5/6
fehlen; besonders 1/3 und 2/3 wären schön
| 2217 und 2218 sollten witer unten stehen (genaus so hoch wie das Minus
und der Punkt 2219) da das Multiplikationsoperatoren sind.
| 226A und 226B: Das sind vielgrößer/vielkleiner Zeichen. Ich hätte sie
aber so nicht erkannt. Nimm einfach << und >> und schiebe sie ein wenig
ineinander.
