1.4.0 (2008-??-??) ADDITIONS: * Preliminary support for Version resources in FON. * Install/uninstall font. * Proper font cropping (Edit -> Crop Width). * Drag'n'drop support. * "Use old method to save Win3.x FNT files" for possibly(?) better compatibility. (Win2.x format is always saved using this method.) IMPROVEMENTS: * Hugely improved FNT/FON output; Windows 9x and Softy shouldn't choke on Fony-generated fonts anymore. * Moved glyph selector from editor window to main window. * Uses proper dialog font on Windows 9x. * Other user interface and cosmetics enhancements. BUG FIXES: * Only first font resource was saved in FON. * After a "Save As" to FNT, subsequent saves still saved as FON. * Font charset combobox always defaulted to "Other:". ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.3.6 (2008-01-14) IMPROVEMENTS: * Glyphs are scaled to fit the glyph preview area. BUG FIXES: * 1.3.6.1: BDF import crashed on wide fonts. * BDF export wasn't padding bitmap data properly. * TTF import didn't always import huge font sizes properly. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.3.5 (2007-12-18) IMPROVEMENTS: * More character sets in Font Header dropdown. Made more descriptive. BUG FIXES: * Font name was read incorrectly with fonts over 64 KB in size. * Modified font generation to circumvent bug(?) in Windows with names of fonts larger than 64 KB in size. * Some internal fixes by mikk, thanks! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.3.4 (2007-10-10) RELEASE NOTES: Time to bump up the version number a bit! IMPROVEMENTS: * 1.3.4.2: Added Japanese translation, updated Russian. (Thanks Asabukuro and solokot!) * 1.3.4.1: Added an option of doubling font size using the Scale2x method. (http://scale2x.sourceforge.net/) * Bitmap export can now export separate bitmaps for each glyph and you can now write a range of glyphs. BUG FIXES: * 1.3.4.2: Fixed (hopefully) an occasional bug where after importing a TrueType font, the Font Header dialog would appear beneath the main window and be inaccessible until alt-tabbing to Fony again. * Font faces larger than 64 kilobytes were saved incorrectly. (Thanks to Karsten Krischker!) * Border color was inverted in bitmap export. * Typing area of Preview window was using incorrect charset. * Other minor fixes. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.3.3 (2007-07-13) RELEASE NOTES: This release has extensive internal modifications to enable Unicode support in the user interface on Windows 2000/XP/Vista. I have also changed the location Fony stores its settings in, so settings from previous versions will be ignored unfortunately. IMPROVEMENTS: * 1.3.3.7: Windows clipboard is now used for copy/paste operations, so glyphs can be copied between Fony instances and from/to other programs. * 1.3.3.5: Updated Russian translation. * Slightly improved the quality of TrueType font import. * Sacrificed fancy menu+toolbar for Unicode compliance. The GUI should now be about 98% Unicode compliant on Windows 2000/XP/Vista. BUG FIXES: * 1.3.3.6: Glyph preview areas and the Reset function were not correctly initialized when a glyph was selected in the Preview window. * 1.3.3.6: In some cases the last character was missing from font name. * 1.3.3.5: Changing first/last char in font header was bugged with monospaced fonts. * 1.3.3.5: Fixed crashes caused by some dialogs. * 1.3.3.5: Fixed glyph width problems with some monospaced font files. * 1.3.3.4: The Open File dialog window is no longer stuck to only showing Amiga fonts after importing an Amiga font. * 1.3.3.3: Fixed incorrectly formed resource table when saving FON files containing multiple fonts. This fixes the issue with Windows only seeing the first font in the file. * 1.3.3.2: Fixed issues with menu/toolbar when using XP visual themes. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.3.2 (2007-06-18) ADDITIONS: * BDF font import and export. (Not perfect; I'll improve it for the next release if I can find more information on how all the metrics stuff is actually supposed to work.) * Russian translation (thanks solokot!). IMPROVEMENTS: * Finally understands command line file arguments so you can associate Fony with font file formats. (Well, only FON/FNT/BDF/FONT right now.) BUGFIXES * 1.3.2.2: Fixed FONTBOUNDINGBOX and PROPERTIES in exported BDF. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.3.0 (2007-06-14) RELEASE NOTES: If you'd like to translate Fony to your language, get the DKLang Translation Editor from http://www.dk-soft.org/ and open Fony\Data\Language\Fony.dklang.

IMPROVEMENTS: * Modify widths of all glyphs by depressing Shift when changing glyph width. * Font scaling to any percentage of original size. * Many interface improvements; better dialogs, icons, translation support. BUG FIXES: * Resizing font to a smaller size cut off glyph data at the bottom. * Fixed some issues with sizing the Glyph Editor window. * Conversion to monospaced could add garbage to the right side of glyphs. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.2.8 (2007-05-14) ADDITIONS: * Font scaling.
