We have a new, improved string type coming up in AK (OOM aware, no null
state), and while it's going to use UTF-8, the name UTF8String is a
mouthful - so let's free up the String name by renaming the existing
class.
Making the old one have an annoying name will hopefully also help with
quick adoption :^)
It was previously the job of the renderer to create fonts, load
replacements for the standard 14 fonts and to pass the font size back
to the PDFFont when asking for glyph widths.
Now, the renderer tells the font its size at creation, as it doesn't
change throughout the life of the font. The PDFFont itself is now
responsible to decide whether or not it needs to use a replacement
font, which still is Liberation Serif for now.
This means that we can now render embedded TrueType fonts as well :^)
It also makes the renderer's job much more simple and leads to a much
cleaner API design.
We would previously pass this function a unicode code point, which is
not actually what we want here.
Instead, we want the "raw" code point, with the font itself deciding
whether or not it needs to be re-mapped.
This same mistake in terminology applied to PS1FontProgram.
This gives much better visual results than painting the path directly.
It also has the nice side effect that Type 1 fonts will now look much
more similar to TrueType fonts, which use the same class :^)
In addition, we can now cache glyph bitmaps for repeated use.
Previously we would draw all text, no matter what font type, as
Liberation Serif, which results in things like ugly character spacing.
We now have partial support for drawing Type 1 glyphs, which are part of
a PostScript font program. We completely ignore hinting for now, which
results in ugly looking characters at low resolutions, but gain support
for a large number of typefaces, including most of the default fonts
used in TeX.
A PDFFont can now be asked for its specific type and whether it is part
of the standard 14 fonts. It now also contains a method to draw a
glyph, which is stubbed-out for now.
This will be useful for the renderer to take into consideration when
drawing text, since we don't include replacements for the standard set
of fonts yet, but still want to make use of embedded fonts when
available.
