Noto Serif CJK 1.000 Release Notes
|
||
==================================
|
||
|
||
April 4, 2017 (addendum)
|
||
|
||
Please note that due to GitHub restrictions the all-in-one Serif .ttc is not
|
||
available via this repo as it exceeds the 100MB GitHub limit. Please use the
|
||
links under "Super OpenType/CFF Collection (Super OTC)" on this page instead:
|
||

|
||
|
||
Introducing Noto Serif CJK 1.000
|
||
|
||
This introduces a serif-style companion to Noto Sans CJK. These fonts are again
|
||
offered in seven weights, though they are slightly different-- ExtraLight,
|
||
Light, Regular, Medium, SemiBold, Bold, and Black. Unlike the Sans there are no
|
||
monospace (ASCII-only) versions of these fonts.
|
||
|
||
The packaging options are the same as for the Sans: you can choose from an
|
||
all-in-one CJK TTC, seven weight-specific CJK TTCs, twenty-eight CJK OTF files
|
||
(four languages x seven weights) that default to one of the four supported
|
||
languages, and twenty-eight region-specific OTF files (four regions x seven
|
||
weights) that support a region-specific subset of the full character repertoire.
|
||
|
||
The character repertoire is shared among all the Serif CJK fonts but there are
|
||
slight differences between them and the Sans CJK. About 50 characters, mostly
|
||
new in Unicode 8.0 and 9.0, have been added, and about 1700 Plane 2 characters
|
||
(mostly CJK Unified Ideographs Extension B) have been temporarily removed (Hong
|
||
Kong support will be added in Version 2.000). The Serif CJK fonts support
|
||
approximately 43,000 characters with 65535 glyphs, the maximum number of glyphs
|
||
possible in a single font. Most of the additional glyphs are regional variants,
|
||
there are also specific japanese variants, ideographic variation sequences,
|
||
vertical variants, precomposed Korean Jamo, and others.
|
||
|
||
As with Sans CJK, Noto Serif CJK was developed under an open source license by
|
||
Adobe Systems, Inc. and is almost identical to their Source Han Serif. Please
|
||
see the detailed Adobe release notes for more information.
|
||
|
||
Noto Serif CJK is licensed under the SIL Open Font License, Version 1.1.

Noto Sans CJK 1.004 Release Notes
|
||
=================================
|
||
|
||
June 15, 2015
|
||
|
||
- Restore correct vertical Japanese Kana forms
|
||
|
||
The vertical kana glyphs that are made accessible via the 'vert' GSUB feature were
|
||
inadvertently reverted to their Version 1.000 forms (except for those that were added in
|
||
Version 1.002, meaning CIDs 65496 through 65505) in Version 1.002, which affected CIDs
|
||
65166 through 65251, 65256 through 65258, 65260 through 65352, 65354 through 65369, and
|
||
65471 through 65484. The correct forms, which were present in Version 1.001, are now
|
||
included.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Noto Sans CJK 1.003 Release Notes
|
||
=================================
|
||
|
||
June 8, 2015
|
||
|
||
- Regularized the vertical metrics across all weights by setting the O/2.uWinAscent and
|
||
O/2.uWinDescent values to 1160 and 320 respectively and using those sames values in the
|
||
horizontal header (hhea) table.
|
||
- The ‘locl’ GSUB feature was reconfigured to be usable in a broader range of contexts.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Noto Sans CJK 1.002 Release Notes
|
||
=================================
|
||
|
||
April 20, 2015
|
||
|
||
This release includes a license change, the addition of several new font instances, and a
|
||
number of bug fixes.
|
||
|
||
----------------------
|
||
License Change
|
||
----------------------
|
||
The open source license is changed from Apache License, Version 2.0 to SIL Open Font
|
||
License, Version 1.1.
|
||
|
||
---------------------------
|
||
New Font Instances
|
||
---------------------------
|
||
In total eight (4 languages x 2 weights) monospaced half-width OTF fonts were added, in
|
||
regular and bold weights.
|
||
|
||
- Noto Sans Mono CJK SC Regular and Bold
|
||
- Noto Sans Mono CJK JP Regular and Bold
|
||
- Noto Sans Mono CJK KR Regular and Bold
|
||
- Noto Sans Mono CJK TC Regular and Bold
|
||
|
||
The monospace fonts differ from the existing ones only in that the default (encoded)
|
||
glyphs for ASCII (U+0020 to U+007E), U+00A0 ( ), U+00A5 (¥), U+2011 (‑), and U+20A9 (₩)
|
||
are half-width instead of proportional.
|
||
|
||
The new monospace fonts can be found in:
|
||
- All-in-one CJK super OTC font (now includes 36 font instances)
|
||
- CJK OTF fonts with different default language (two additional font instances for each
|
||
language)
|
||
- NotoSansCJK-Regular.ttc and NotoSansCJK-Bold.ttc (four additional font instances in
|
||
each)
|
||
|
||
Although eight new font instances were added, the footprint of the super OTC only
|
||
increased by 1M or so, mainly due to the four additional 'cmap' tables. Two of the seven
|
||
OTC now contain eight font instances.
|
||
|
||

|
||

Noto Sans CJK 1.001 Release Notes
|
||
=================================
|
||
|
||
September 12, 2014
|
||
|
||
With this release there have been a number of bug fixes and some
|
||
reorganization of the packages. The package reorganization carries with it
|
||
a small name change that affects the name of the file, menu name, and the
|
||
internal PostScript name of the original OTF format font. This is a one
|
||
time name change only and names will be stable going forward.
|
||
|
||
Bug Fixes
|
||
---------
|
||
There have been a number of fixes but the two most obvious ones are the fix
|
||
in the alignment of the traditional Chinese punctuation and adjustment of
|
||
the designs used for traditional Chinese to align better for usage in Hong
|
||
Kong.
|
||
|
||

||
https://code.google.com/p/noto/issues/detail?id=54
|
||
|
||
Package Reorganization
|
||
----------------------
|
||
With this release there was an expansion in the number of file formats and
|
||
combinations in which the fonts are being made available.
|
||
|
||
There are now four major groups of font files by package in this release.
|
||
These are:
|
||
|
||
* Super OpenType Collection (Super OTC)
|
||
- This is a new format this release that bundles all 7 weights for all 4
|
||
languages into one large font resource. It is smaller overall than
|
||
the combination of the 28 fonts that would be used otherwise because
|
||
of resource sharing and it is much easier to install.
|
||
|
||
* OpenType Collection (OTC)
|
||
- Each OTC fully supports each of the four languages. There are 7 of these
|
||
with one for each weight.
|
||
|
||
* Language Specific OTF
|
||
- Each font file supports each of the four languages by using the OpenType
|
||
‘locl’ feature. However, by default, when the ‘locl’ feature is not
|
||
used, each font file supports a specific language. That means that
|
||
there are 28 font files - 4 languages x 7 weights.
|
||
- This format of 4 language specific variants is new with this release and
|
||
replaces the previous single language variant that required the use of
|
||
the ‘locl’ feature. This is where the name change occurred as we now
|
||
tag the various versions with the name of the default language.
|
||
|
||
* Region Specific OTF subsets
|
||
- Each font file supports a region specific subset of the full fonts.
|
||
These contain only the glyphs needed for the specific region. There
|
||
are 28 of these font files - 4 languages x 7 weights.
|
