pdfboss_render/

lib.rs

//! Page rasterization for pdfboss: paths, fills, strokes, clipping, color
//! spaces, images and glyph outlines, rendered to an RGBA8 pixmap and
//! encodable as PNG.
//!
//! Glyph painting is staged behind [`GlyphPainting`] tiers: embedded
//! TrueType only, then every embedded font program (TrueType, CFF, Type1,
//! Type3), and finally `Full`, which additionally substitutes a
//! replacement face for a non-embedded simple font (see `crate::glyph` and
//! `crate::substitute` for the loader and the request/provider plumbing).
//! A substitute face comes from either a caller-supplied directory
//! ([`SubstituteSource::Dir`]) or the compiled-in OFL Croscore set
//! ([`SubstituteSource::Builtin`]), the latter gated behind this crate's
//! `substitute-fonts` Cargo feature and queryable at runtime via
//! [`builtin_fonts_available`]. Advance widths for a substituted
//! standard-14 font additionally consult Adobe Core-14 AFM tables
//! (`pdfboss_encoding::standard_14_width`) ahead of the substitute's own
//! `hmtx`, behind only the PDF's own `/Widths`.
//!
//! v1 limitations: `/Symbol` and `/ZapfDingbats` have no license-clean
//! substitute, so they stay unpainted at every tier rather than borrowing
//! an unrelated face's glyphs (their text still advances, via the
//! metrics-only loader in `crate::glyph`); and a "bold" *sans* substitute
//! request is not visually distinct from regular weight (Arimo is a
//! `[wght]` variable font, rendered at its Regular instance -- only italic
//! varies, via a separate static face).

// The rasterizer modules are consumed by the content-stream executor; the
// `dead_code` allowances below disappear once it is wired up.
