* Subpixel Rendering
|

|
|

|

|
|
* @abstract:
|
||
|
|
* API to control subpixel rendering.
|
||
|
|
*
|
||
|
|
* @description:
|
||
|
|
* FreeType provides two alternative subpixel rendering technologies.
|
||
|
|
* Should you define `FT_CONFIG_OPTION_SUBPIXEL_RENDERING` in your
|
||
|
|
* `ftoption.h` file, this enables patented ClearType-style rendering.
|
||
|
|
* Otherwise, Harmony LCD rendering is enabled. These technologies are
|
||
|
|
* controlled differently and API described below, although always
|
||
|
|
* available, performs its function when appropriate method is enabled
|
||
|
|
* and does nothing otherwise.
|
||
|
|
*
|
||
|
|
* ClearType-style LCD rendering exploits the color-striped structure of
|
||
|
|
* LCD pixels, increasing the available resolution in the direction of
|
||
|
|
* the stripe (usually horizontal RGB) by a factor of~3. Using the
|
||
|
|
* subpixels coverages unfiltered can create severe color fringes
|
||
|
|
* especially when rendering thin features. Indeed, to produce
|
||
|
|
* black-on-white text, the nearby color subpixels must be dimmed
|
||
|
|
* equally.
|
||
|
|
*
|
||
|
|
* A good 5-tap FIR filter should be applied to subpixel coverages
|
||
|
|
* regardless of pixel boundaries and should have these properties:
|
||
|
|
*
|
||
|
|
* 1. It should be symmetrical, like {~a, b, c, b, a~}, to avoid
|
||
|
|
* any shifts in appearance.
|
||
|
|
*
|
||
|
|
* 2. It should be color-balanced, meaning a~+ b~=~c, to reduce color
|
||
|
|
* fringes by distributing the computed coverage for one subpixel to
|
||
|
|
* all subpixels equally.
|
||
|
|
*
|
||
|
|
* 3. It should be normalized, meaning 2a~+ 2b~+ c~=~1.0 to maintain
|
||
|
|
* overall brightness.
|
||
|
|
*
|
||
|
|
* Boxy 3-tap filter {0, 1/3, 1/3, 1/3, 0} is sharper but is less
|
||
|
|
* forgiving of non-ideal gamma curves of a screen (and viewing angles),
|
||
|
|
* beveled filters are fuzzier but more tolerant.
|
||
|
|
*
|
||
|
|
* Use the @FT_Library_SetLcdFilter or @FT_Library_SetLcdFilterWeights
|
||
|
|
* API to specify a low-pass filter, which is then applied to
|
||
|
|
* subpixel-rendered bitmaps generated through @FT_Render_Glyph.
|
||
|
|
*
|
||
|
|
* Harmony LCD rendering is suitable to panels with any regular subpixel
|
||
|
|
* structure, not just monitors with 3 color striped subpixels, as long
|
||
|
|
* as the color subpixels have fixed positions relative to the pixel
|
||
|
|
* center. In this case, each color channel is then rendered separately
|
||
|
|
* after shifting the outline opposite to the subpixel shift so that the
|
||
|
|
* coverage maps are aligned. This method is immune to color fringes
|
||
|
|
* because the shifts do not change integral coverage.
|
||
|
|
*
|
||
|
|
* The subpixel geometry must be specified by xy-coordinates for each
|
||
|
|
* subpixel. By convention they may come in the RGB order: {{-1/3, 0},
|
||
|
|
* {0, 0}, {1/3, 0}} for standard RGB striped panel or {{-1/6, 1/4},
|
||
|
|
* {-1/6, -1/4}, {1/3, 0}} for a certain PenTile panel.
|
||
|
|
*
|
||
|
|
* Use the @FT_Library_SetLcdGeometry API to specify subpixel positions.
|
||
|
|
* If one follows the RGB order convention, the same order applies to the
|
||
|
|
* resulting @FT_PIXEL_MODE_LCD and @FT_PIXEL_MODE_LCD_V bitmaps. Note,
|
||
|
|
* however, that the coordinate frame for the latter must be rotated
|
||
|
|
* clockwise. Harmony with default LCD geometry is equivalent to
|
||
|
|
* ClearType with light filter.
|
||
|
|
*
|
||
|
|
* As a result of ClearType filtering or Harmony rendering, the
|
||
|
|
* dimensions of LCD bitmaps can be either wider or taller than the
|
||
|
|
* dimensions of the corresponding outline with regard to the pixel grid.
|
||
|
|
* For example, for @FT_RENDER_MODE_LCD, the filter adds 2~subpixels to
|
||
|
|
* the left, and 2~subpixels to the right. The bitmap offset values are
|
||
|
|
* adjusted accordingly, so clients shouldn't need to modify their layout
|
||
|
|
* and glyph positioning code when enabling the filter.
|
||
|
|
*
|
||
|
|
* The ClearType and Harmony rendering is applicable to glyph bitmaps
|
||
|
|
* rendered through @FT_Render_Glyph, @FT_Load_Glyph, @FT_Load_Char, and
|
||
|
|
* @FT_Glyph_To_Bitmap, when @FT_RENDER_MODE_LCD or @FT_RENDER_MODE_LCD_V
|
||
|
|
* is specified. This API does not control @FT_Outline_Render and
|
||
|
|
* @FT_Outline_Get_Bitmap.
|
||
|
|
*
|
||
|
|
* The described algorithms can completely remove color artefacts when
|
||
|
|
* combined with gamma-corrected alpha blending in linear space. Each of
|
||
|
|
* the 3~alpha values (subpixels) must by independently used to blend one
|
||
|
|
* color channel. That is, red alpha blends the red channel of the text
|
||
|
|
* color with the red channel of the background pixel.
