Overview

CFF (Compact Font Format) table parser

The CFF table contains PostScript-based glyph outline data for OpenType fonts with CFF outlines (as opposed to TrueType glyf/loca outlines). CFF is identified by the ‘OTTO’ signature in the font’s sfnt version.

CFF Table Structure: “‘ CFF Table = Header

+ Name INDEX
+ Top DICT INDEX
+ String INDEX
+ Global Subr INDEX
+ [Encodings]
+ [Charsets]
+ [FDSelect]
+ [CharStrings INDEX]
+ [Font DICT INDEX]
+ [Private DICT]
+ [Local Subr INDEX]

“‘

This implementation focuses on the foundational structures (Header and INDEX) which are used throughout CFF. Additional structures like DICT, CharStrings, Charset, and Encoding require separate implementations.

Reference: Adobe CFF specification adobe-type-tools.github.io/font-tech-notes/pdfs/5176.CFF.pdf

Reference: docs/ttfunk-feature-analysis.md lines 2607-2648

Examples:

Reading a CFF table

data = font.table_data['CFF ']
cff = Fontisan::Tables::Cff.read(data)
puts cff.font_count  # => 1
puts cff.header.version  # => "1.0"

Parameters:

  • data (String) —

    Binary data for the CFF table
