Font::TTF::Cmap - Character map table
Looks after the character map. For ease of use, the actual cmap is held in a hash against codepoint. Thus for a given table:
$gid = $font->{'cmap'}{'Tables'}[0]{'val'}{$code};
Note that $code should be a true value (0x1234) rather than a string representation.
The instance variables listed here are not preceded by a space due to their emulating structural information in the font.
Each subtables also has its own instance variables which are, again, not preceded by a space.
The platform number for this subtable
The encoding number for this subtable
Gives the stored format of this subtable
Gives the version (or language) information for this subtable
A hash keyed by the codepoint value (not a string) storing the glyph id
Reads the cmap into memory. Format 4 subtables read the whole subtable and fill in the segmented array accordingly.
Finds a Unicode table, giving preference to the MS one, and looks up the given Unicode codepoint in it to find the glyph id.
Finds the a Unicode table, giving preference to the Microsoft one, and sets the mstable instance variable to it if found. Returns the table it finds.
Returns the encoding of the microsoft table (0 => symbol, etc.). Returns undef if there is no Microsoft cmap.
Writes out a cmap table to a filehandle. If it has not been read, then just copies from input file to output
Outputs the elements of the cmap in XML. We only need to process val here
Returns the minimum size this table can be in bytes. If it is smaller than this, then the table must be bad and should be deleted or whatever.
Tidies the cmap table.
Removes MS Fmt12 cmap if it is no longer needed.
Removes from all cmaps any codepoint that map to GID=0. Note that such entries will be re-introduced as necessary depending on the cmap format.
Returns a reverse map of the Unicode cmap. I.e. given a glyph gives the Unicode value for it. Options are:
Table number to use rather than the default Unicode table
Returns each element of reverse as an array since a glyph may be mapped by more than one Unicode value. The arrays are unsorted. Otherwise store any one unicode value for a glyph.
Returns whether the table of a given index is known to be a unicode table (as specified in the specifications)
