	- completed combining accented chars block 0300-036F
	-ij-Ligature more space between the glyphs, dot of j is slightly higher
	-i,j,... more distinctive dotaccent and higher position
	-r,f,j,y changes in the drop, which became more distinctive 
	- h slightl wider
	- e slightly wider
	- moved [a-z].superior from PUA to dedicated Unicode positions
	- crossed form of W for new Wikipedia-logo
	- new capital Eng

p, and j.
	-180° degree symmetry for the o and O
	- public domain and creative commons sign added 

- Biolinum Bold: numerous improvements in following glyphs:
	- a
	- i, j, ä, ö, ü...
	- w, v
	- e
	- f, ß
	- c

- added small cyrillic m (uni043C) to Biolinum and some other missing cyrillics
(not yet all done...)
- Inverted Interrobang (uni2E18) added
- Add Substitution/Transposition brackets 2E02-0A
- macroncmb (uni0304) had a wrong positioned mark anchor and was thus flying
much to high
- Problems with Fractions (ID 2665656): without a contextual chaining
substitution fractions like 1/7 or 1/10, that don't have a concrete
Unicode-posistion, were unavailible. Now solved via contextual chaining
substitution.
- bold: ck, ch-ligature's part characters were a bit close. Now some more space
between them
- diacritic U+031A was wrongly placed. Is now being positioned above-right. New
anchor is called top_rechts
- corrected s_t-ligature in biolinum bold
Ingo Preuss points out thatsome glyphs were wrongly named:
- uni0237 is now called dotlessj (instead of uniF6BE, which was wrongly named 
this way)
- all references to dotlessj now point to uni0237

In the following cases names were corrected, unicode points stayed unchanged
- tcommaaccent (uni0163) is now called tcedilla
- 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. 
Italic: Correction of schwa

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.

These are actually the names Adobe defined for ligatures in OpenTypes always
a_b_c...

Yes, this is true. That was of course a bug.

Wrong PS-Names affect just OpenType-capable programs. Normal office use is not

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

-----------Fertig-nach Tobias Vorschlägen----------------------------
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)
http://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/U0370.pdf
(Wieso die in MES-2 sind, weiß ich allerdings nicht)
* 03DA GREEK LETTER STIGMA
* 03DB GREEK SMALL LETTER STIGMA
* 03DC GREEK LETTER DIGAMMA
* 03DD GREEK SMALL LETTER DIGAMMA
* 03DE GREEK LETTER KOPPA
* 03DF GREEK SMALL LETTER KOPPA
* 03E0 GREEK LETTER SAMPI
* 03E1 GREEK SMALL LETTER SAMPI
MATHEMATICAL OPERATORS, http://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/U2200.pdf
- 2208 ELEMENT OF, 2209 NOT AN ELEMENT OF und 220A SMALL ELEMENT OF
-> das (Nicht-)Element-von-Symbol finde ich zu groß, es sollte nicht so
groß wie Versalien/Großbuchstaben sein, sondern so groß oder etwas
kleiner als Gemeine/Kleinbuchstaben. Das kleine Element-von-Symbol finde
ich zu klein.

Changes to version 2.1.1 regular(|) & italic(/) & capitals (20060729)

- Small numbers -> superiors and inferiors are now bolder
- fractures are greatly improved and some new are added
- We now have proportional numbers and mediävale as some people asked for them

OpenType-Compliant programs (unfortunately aren't there any compliant programs,
or are there?)

=> 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.

| 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

  (beim r und u mit " könnten sie noch ein Tick weiter rechts sein)

| 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.

  132. substitution fractions like 1/7 or 1/10, that don't have a concrete
  133. Unicode-posistion, were unavailible. Now solved via contextual chaining
  134. substitution.
  135. - bold: ck, ch-ligature's part characters were a bit close. Now some more space

  151. - orthogonal is now called uni221F
  152. - sun is now called uni263C
  153. - I had to move that .cap-variants of the accents to the PUA, because they
  154. covered space where Unicode in between defined new characters. So I
  155. systematically moved the .cap-Accents to:
  156. grave.cap uni0358 -> uniE358
  157. acute.cap uni0359 -> uniE359
  158. circumflex.cap and so forth
  159. caron.cap
  160. breve.cap

  174. - first use of contextual chaining substitution:
  175. - when a combining accent follows an i, the dotlessi is used to prevent an
  176. accent crash
  177. - when one of the accented or leftwarding glyphs such as (ä, V) follow an f,
  178. a short neck version of f (f.alt) is being used for optical reasons
  179. - Added U+033B COMBINING SQUARE BELOW
  180. - there was the "space" in a left kern class (together with dot, etc.). This
  181. resulted in too few visible room when a "space" should seperate a word from the
  182. now beginning quotation.
  183. Italic: Correction of schwa
  184. Changes to version 4.4.1 regular(-) & italic(/) & capitals (C) (20090321)

  204. - florin improved
  205. - dansk ring accent improved -> aring
  206. - comma accent improved, in characters with this accent the latter have now the
  207. same vertical position
  208. - roman numbers improved
  209. - and many smaller things I forgot to note
  210. - as well as hopefully all that I marked as "solved" in the bug tracker

  223. the baseline)
  224. - Fonts bounds/linespacing in TTF and OTF adjusted
  225. - E, F: a bit thinner now
  226. - A,V,W,v,w design improvements in diagonals

  230. - m is a little wider now
  231. - basic working EM is now 1000 instead of 2048

  239. (20080619)
  240. - There was a compiling-problem with the LinLibertine_Re-2.8.14.otf that caused
  241. a unusable GSUB-table. Though outline-information seemed to be unaffected MacOSX
  242. didn’t want to intall it. This version should be without this bug, the reason
  243. for the old bug could not be discovered.
  244. - Change in the OpenType-Substitution table (different order of interpretation:
  245. sups and sinf should be substituted even if oldstyle flag is also set.
  246. / True Cyrrillic italics for the italic variant
  247. / new “a” for the italic, also thinner p, n, m and e

  253. clipped to the bottom
  254. - Qu (Q_u) has been improved and is now standard ligature
  255. - new form for s_t- and c_t-ligature, Thanks to Nathan!
  256. - OpenType-GSUB-table has been improved. New functionality for Romanian and
  257. Moldavian (comma-accent instead of cedilla), for Turky (idotaccent.sc is chosen
  258. when Tyrkish is default language, otherwiese i.sc is the small capital form
  259. used; f_i_()-ligatures are set off in Turkish because it hinders the
  260. differenciation of f-i and f-dotlessi in that language.
  261. / Italic variant now uses the same perfect OpenType-GSUB as the regular.
  262. / new a.sc for the italic. Adding missing sc-glyphs, bring others to the latest
  263. design.
  264. Changes to version 2.8.14 regular(|) & italic(/) & capitals (20080619)

  345. Changes to version 2.7.9 regular(|) & italic(/) & capitals (20071228)
  346. - new Hinting! Now it is possible to use Libertine with Word on Windows
  347. properly. The shape on screen should be clearer now on every system!
  348. - new kern pairs for better typography
  349. - some wrong contour directions corrected
  350. - many small corrections
  351. - OT "fina" has been removed from wordend-sigma
  352. - countless small improvements
  353. - kerning for Caps variant
  354. - the conflict (that came up lately with a library update) between underlined
  355. and regular is diminished
  356. Changes to version 2.6.9 regular(|) & italic(/) & capitals (20070423)
  357. Gernerally:
  358. - Symbols for „page“, „graph“, „picture“ and „table“ added
  359. - Oldstyle numbers (minuscle numbers) were just contained as
  360. proportionals. Somebody wanted them also as table numbers. Ladder became
  361. standard oldstyles now. Some of these glyphs look somewhat thinner to fit them
  362. on the fixed width.
  363. -bold italic variant had a wrong style entry which seemed to confuse
  364. Mac's fonthandling, also other style confusions should be fixed now
  365. -bold italic also had wrong metrics which resulted in a cutoff of glyph
  366. parts and wrong line spacing.
  367. German interests:
  368. -großes Eszett hinzugefügt (uni1E9E) entsprechend Kapitälchen-Eszett
  369. -kleines Eszett so verändert, dass es zum großen passt (ſz statt ſs),
  370. das vorige Eszett ist als germandbls.alt weiterenthalten
  371. -Im Stilsatz ss03 kann für Schweizer nun automatisch von Eszetts auf ss
  372. umgestellt werden.
  373. -die dt. ÄÖÜ sind nun von der Alternativposition an die rechte Stelle
  374. gerückt. Für die nichtdeutschsprachige Nutzung empfehlen sich jetzt die (vormals
  375. standart, jetzt aber auf die Alternativposition gewechselten Akzentuierten)
  376. Cyrillic:
  377. Due to A. Panovs help hopefully a lot of design impriovements for the
  378. cyrrilic alphabet.
  379. Mainly: Є Љ Њ Б З Ф Ш Щ Ъ Ы Ь Э Ю Ө (and its small letter derivates) For
  380. details:
  381. ("Ь" in regular typeface has extra contour at left bottom.)
  382. --corrected--
  383. Lower part of "Ь" and "Ъ" (and for lowercase letters "ь", "ы",
  384. "ъ",
  385. "ѣ") differ. I think the letter "Ь" (or "ь" for lowercase)
  386. should be
  387. used as base for others.
  388. ("Ф" is still slightly asymmetric with respect to vertical axis.
  389. It may produce artefacts with rendering.)
  390. --corrected--
  391. (Middle vertical stems in "Ш", "Щ" have not rounded lower
  392. edges.)
  393. --corrected--
  394. ("Ш", "ш" are not quite symmetric agains middle vertical axis
  395. (all
  396. typefaces). "Щ", "щ" must be updated accordingly.)
  397. --corrected--
  398. (The tongue in "Э" can have two stylistic variants: straight and
  399. tilde-like. )
  400. OK, then tilde-like.
  401. (The designer decides which version should be selected. Some
  402. other letters should follow this decision: U+0472, U+04E8, U+0404, etc.)
  403. --corrected--
  404. (The capital letters U+0472 and U+04E8 usually are identical,
  405. excepting the case of archaic (before ca. XVIII century) form of U+0472.)
  406. --corrected--
  407. (The U+0473 frequently is narrower than "o" and U+04E9. In case
  408. of a tilde-tongue in "Э" a tongue in U+0404 is not flipped, i.e. it has the same
  409. diriction as in "Э".)
  410. --corrected--
  411. Small Caps:
  412. - Some changes here for better spacing.
  413. - FO-overlap (due to wrong kerning entry) removed
  414. Bolded:
  415. - Complete revision of the bold version. Should result in a clearer
  416. shape and better thin-width-contrast
  417. OpenType:
  418. - Due to better support in the FontForge editor the OpenType-tables have
  419. been completely redefined.
  420. Changes to version 2.5.9 regular(|) & italic(/) & capitals (20070423)
  421. - countless improvements as usual
  422. - some unicode standard optimizations (NUL-glyph, .notdef, ...)
  423. - U+0180 group of charakters were sometimes not the way the latest unicode wants
  424. them so we changed them. This refers mainly to the differentiation of capital
  425. and small letters
  426. - Vietnamese horned vokals have been changed the way, that the horn is now
  427. always at the same hight. All accented vietnamese glyphs were revised
  428. - some optic improvements in placement of accents
  429. - added a capital variant of hookabove and changed all the capital letters to
  430. this new hookabove form. It is wider and lower for better line-holding
  431. - kerning was greatly improved, i.e.: Kombinations like "f)", "f?", "(j"...
  432. shouldn't overlap anymore. Capital letter words should now be better spaced.
  433. - There was one wrong cyrrilic letter Lje (U+0409).
  434. And there were some correct objections to the handling of the downgoing serif in
  435. Dzhe/dzhe, De/de, Tse/tse, Shcha/shcha. These now have the same depth and
  436. similar form
  437. - Some small changes in cyrrilics most complex letter Zhe
  438. but also in Ef
  439. in the hardening and softening signs (should not look like a reversed P but like
  440. the bud of the B),
  441. Ya shouldn't look like a flipped R,
  442. be had a too right tail,
  443. breve.cyr didn't look cyrrillic enough,
  444. ef shouldn't be too calligraphic,
  445. dje/she have now x-hight-bars
  446. - due to a bug U+1fc7 (an accented eta) was missing
  447. - some eagled-eyed person had seen that the U+721 was not at its place
  448. - perthousandzero added at U+E00E for full LaTex-support
  449. - some accented smallcaps added to basic font table for LaTex-support (This
  450. doesn't affect the Caps-version of Libertine, which already had all these
  451. glyphs)
  452. - removed a cyrrilic opentype entry that substituted N-o with the numberligature
  453. because a stupid GNOME environment read out this table entry on a Spanish system
  454. and messed up typography...
  455. Changes to version 2.4.9 regular(|) & italic(/) & capitals (20070309)
  456. - many countless improvements
  457. - some letters are slimer now: a, k, c, r
  458. this is especially useful for languages with longs words. German in the first
  459. place...
  460. - on screen letters with round parts should now look more equal on screen
  461. -C, D, G, S have now better (shorter) serifs which are more useful for the
  462. standart printing size of 12-10pt
  463. - the thinnest line should now have a width of at least 50 (improvements for
  464. 12-10pt printing)
  465. - the whole range from U+180 -> U+01BF has been reworked
  466. -small improvements in the IPA-Extensions
  467. -for better acception of the old greek we changed the inverted breve to a tilde
  468. which is more widely used..., accents also have received some improvements
  469. -The cyrillic alphabeth has had again great changes due to unsatisfied users. We
  470. now have more equal cyrillic serifs, some letters are thinner some wider,
  471. spacing has been renewed
  472. -p,i have now horizontal serifs in the cyrillic
  473. -the bold regular is greatly improved. It's now fatter, looks more elegant
  474. - the curive has also improvements:
  475. J is now better
  476. many things are corresponding to the improvements in the regular
  477. -improvements in the capital variant
  478. Changes to version 2.3.2regular(|) & italic(/) & capitals (20060920)
  479. Countless improvements...
  480. -especially for the italic, the kyrillic
  481. -polish accents ogonki are now what they should be
  482. -new: hebrew alphabeth
  483. -numbers
  484. -accents brought to one hight (some dotted chars weren't)
  485. -Same hight for capitals (already one point difference can the letter look
  486. higher on screen. For print this doesn't play any role...
  487. -superior/inferior numbers improved
  488. -ae looks now different: mor organic. If you don't like this. Theres also an old
  489. variant at the end of the font
  490. -ij ligature isn't connected anymore

  492. position), kappa improved

  568. -----------Fertig-nach Tobias Vorschlägen----------------------------
  569. 02C4 (MODIFIER LETTER UP ARRORHEAD), * raised articulation (-> 005E ^
  570. circumflex accent, 2303 ^ up arrowhead). Siehe
  571. http://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/U02B0.pdf
  572. Wenn ich in die PDF-Datei schaue, sehen 02C2 (<), 02C3 (>), 02C4 (^) und
  573. 02C4 (v) größer aus als 02C4 (^) und 02C5 (v). Vielleicht sollte man für
  574. 02C2 bis 02C3 einfach ein gedrehtes '<' benutzen?
  575. - Zeichenbreite im Block "SPACE MODIFIER LETTERS (02B0–02FF)"
  576. (http://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/U02B0.pdf) ist zum Teil verkehrt.
  577. Diese Zeichen sollen alle eine endliche Breite haben (im Gegensatz zu
  578. den COMBINING DIACRITICAL MARKS (0300-036F), die auf/unter einem Zeichen
  579. sitzen sollen). Insbesondere:
  580. - zu Breit: hochgestellte h, w und y
  581. - viel zu schmall: T, _|_ und + (etc.)
  582. - Zeichenbreite/Position im Block "COMBINING DIACRITICAL MARKS (0300-036F)
  583. http://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/U0300.pdf
  584. Bei den meisten Zeichen stimmt die Breite/Position, bis auf:
  585. - 0306 COMBINING BREVE -> zu weit rechts
  586. - 030B COMBING DOUBLE ACUTE ACCENT -> zu weit rechts.
  587. - 0327 COMBINING CEDILLA -> viel, viel zu weit rechts!
  588. - 0338 COMBINING LONG SOLIDUS OVERLY
  589. -> Ich würde den Strich entweder etwas nach unten verlängern oder nach
  590. etwas nach unten schieben; oder etwas nach links schieben? Jedenfalls
  591. sieht "o" + U0338 (= ca. ø) komisch aus.
  592. - Vielleicht ein klein bißchen zu weit rechts: 0323, 0330, 0331, 0342,
  593. - 0384 GREEK TONOS -> Das Zeichen sollte normal breit sein und kein
  594. "combining" Akzent.
  595. - 03F1 GREEK LUNATE SIGMA SYMBOL = GREEK SMALL LETTER LUNATE SIGMA ->
  596. Das Zeichen sollte anders als Sigma aussehen und zwar ohne den Bogen
  597. unten (ca, wie "c", oft spitz zulaufend).
  598. - 03F4 GREEK CAPITAL THETA SYMBOL -> anders als Theta, durchgehender
  599. Strich in der Mitte
  600. - 03F5 GREEK LUNATE EPSILON SYMBOL = straight epsilon -> Wie der Name
  601. schon sagt ein nicht geschwungenes Epsilon. In der Physik benutzt man
  602. oftmals beide Epsilons das gerade und das geschwungene.
  603. (03F6 GREEK REVERSED LUNATE EPSILON = reversed straight epsilon -> bitte
  604. das gedrehte 03F5 hinzufügen)
  605. - 03F9 GREEK CAPITAL LUNATE SIGMA SYMBOL -> sollte anders als Sigma
  606. aussehen, klassischerweise wie "C" (oft ohne Serifen und spitz zulaufend)
  607. NUMBER FORMS
  608. - 215F "1/ " -> Man sollte wohl die Breite so ändern, daß "1/" +
  609. tiefgestellte Zahl (2080 bis 2089) gut aussehen.
  610. > Durch Kerning gelöst
  611. Fehlten:
  612. - Griechisch-Block: 03DA-03E1 fehlen (Archaische Buchstaben)
  613. http://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/U0370.pdf
  614. (Wieso die in MES-2 sind, weiß ich allerdings nicht)
  615. * 03DA GREEK LETTER STIGMA
  616. * 03DB GREEK SMALL LETTER STIGMA
  617. * 03DC GREEK LETTER DIGAMMA
  618. * 03DD GREEK SMALL LETTER DIGAMMA
  619. * 03DE GREEK LETTER KOPPA
  620. * 03DF GREEK SMALL LETTER KOPPA
  621. * 03E0 GREEK LETTER SAMPI
  622. * 03E1 GREEK SMALL LETTER SAMPI
  623. MATHEMATICAL OPERATORS, http://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/U2200.pdf
  624. - 2208 ELEMENT OF, 2209 NOT AN ELEMENT OF und 220A SMALL ELEMENT OF
  625. -> das (Nicht-)Element-von-Symbol finde ich zu groß, es sollte nicht so
  626. groß wie Versalien/Großbuchstaben sein, sondern so groß oder etwas
  627. kleiner als Gemeine/Kleinbuchstaben. Das kleine Element-von-Symbol finde
  628. ich zu klein.
  629. Changes to version 2.1.1 regular(|) & italic(/) & capitals (20060729)

  648. OpenType-Compliant programs (unfortunately aren't there any compliant programs,
  649. or are there?)

  651. - korrected lots of greek special charakters
  652. - some small extensions in mathematical symbols

  665. slightly better contours (who knows...)
  666. - first underlined variant

  668. Changes to version 2.0.8 regular(|) & italic(/) & capitals (20060401)
  669. - completely new bold version!
  670. - first bold-italic variant!
  671. => the family has therefore now finally all faces it classically needs, juhu!
  672. ;-)
  673. -further small corrections in all faces
  674. - I created TrueTypeInstructed variants of LinuxLibertine named "LinuxLibertine
  675. T" they can be therefore installed paralelly to the unhinted variants.
  676. Note 1: I recommend all users of OpenOffice 2.0.x on Linux to use the unhinted
  677. variants. On my linux-systems the unhinted variant is automaticly hinted and
  678. better looking than the hinted! On Windows-Systems -- nevertheless -- the
  679. unhinted variant is ugly on screen. Here you should take the instructed/hinted
  680. variant.
  681. Note 2: Hints (in the meaning of TrueTypeInstructions) do not have any effect on
  682. printing.
  683. Changes to version 2.0.7 regular(|) & italic(/) & capitals (20060227)

  765. | 0323 combining dot below: vielleicht noch ein bißchen nach links?
  766. Anmerkung: Wenn man jetzt noch die Diacritical Marks verschiebt, dann verändern
  767. sie sich in allen anderen Akzentuierten Zeichen mit, wo sie durch Referenzen
  768. eingebunden sind. Daher habe ich die Verschiebungen ersteinmal nicht
  769. vorgenommen.
  770. |Beim kleinen psi [03C8] kann ich mich nicht recht an den schrägen Mittelstrich
  771. gewöhnen.)
  772. | 1E48: Das _ beim N sollte wohl etwas länger sein oder etwas nach links
  773. verschoben werden
  774. | Bei Greek Extended (1F00 bis 1FFF) ist bei 'E und 'H (allein und mit
  775. verschiedenen weiteren Akzenten) das ' vor der position 0, und
  776. überschreibt somit das vorherige Zeichen. Das ist wohl nicht Absicht,
  777. oder? Analog bei `I (1FDA).
  778. | uni2102: Das C (für die Menge komplexe Zahlen) sollte einen
  779. Doppelstrich haben, wie deine H,Q,Z,R
  780. | 213D bis 2149: das gilt auch für die Zeichen hier (gamma, Gamma, Pi,
  781. Sigma, D, d, e und j)
  782. | 2153 bis 215A: Die Brüche 1/3, 2/3, 1/5, 2/5, 3/5, 4/5, 1/6, 5/6
  783. fehlen; besonders 1/3 und 2/3 wären schön
  784. | 2217 und 2218 sollten witer unten stehen (genaus so hoch wie das Minus
  785. und der Punkt 2219) da das Multiplikationsoperatoren sind.
  786. | 226A und 226B: Das sind vielgrößer/vielkleiner Zeichen. Ich hätte sie
  787. aber so nicht erkannt. Nimm einfach << und >> und schiebe sie ein wenig
  788. ineinander.

  1734. Changes to version 0.2.8 (20031005)
  1735. - did a little work in kerning of pairs like Vx, Wx, fx, ff
  1736. - E,F,k: vertical stem is now 2 points thinner
  1737. - n overworked. Major changes: left vertikal stem has now lost sharpness;
  1738. bow from n is now just a connect to the left HStem an no part anymore;
  1739. new character balance on the right
  1740. - same like above with h, m, r
  1741. - r got mor extrem in bow and ear
  1742. - b, d, p similar procedure like above with m, n, r
  1743. - i, j, l, k, b, d, h the overlength is now slightly unsharpened

  1745. Changes to version 0.2.7 (20031002)
  1746. - g got a slightly smaller ear

  1748. - n has now less right bearing (20 -> 5)
  1749. - m has now more right bearing (-8 -> 5)
  1750. - h has now less right bearing (12 -> 5)
  1751. - c got a bigger left bearing (54 -> 60)

  1759. - t got bigger right bearing (45 -> 50)
  1760. - z: for aesthetical reasons the above horizontal stem seems to must be thinner
  1761. than the one at the
  1762. base line, so 9points off
  1763. Changes to version 0.2.6 (20030930)
  1764. - I overworked all serifs! The results are not visible in printing small sizes
  1765. in TrueType
  1766. but since AutoHinting recognizes the serifs now we should have better printing
  1767. results at
  1768. good postscript printers in PostScript-Fonts.
  1769. - Kerning table has been greately expanded even for pairs like ke, ka... Very
  1770. sad that nearly all
  1771. Linux-TrueType programs don't care about the kerning table at all! This must
  1772. change in future!
  1773. - g has been overworked and seems to become pretty at least. Especially the ear
  1774. had a good change.
  1775. - C had major changes and satisfies me now.

  1779. - r got a little thicker nipple at the right end of its arm that leads to better
  1780. printing an
  1781. recognition results at small points
  1782. - t has a slighly thinner round in its neck now
