Defined in:

Overview

Optimizes subroutine selection and ordering for maximum file size reduction. Uses a greedy algorithm to select the most beneficial patterns while avoiding conflicts, then orders them by frequency for efficient encoding.

Examples:

Basic usage

analyzer = PatternAnalyzer.new
patterns = analyzer.analyze(charstrings)
optimizer = SubroutineOptimizer.new(patterns, max_subrs: 65535)
selected_patterns = optimizer.optimize_selection
ordered_patterns = optimizer.optimize_ordering(selected_patterns)

Constructor Details

#initialize(patterns, max_subrs: 65535) ⇒ SubroutineOptimizer

Initialize optimizer with patterns

Parameters:

  • patterns (Array<Pattern>) —

    patterns from analyzer

  • max_subrs (Integer) (defaults to: 65535) —

    maximum number of subroutines (default: 65535)

Instance Method Details

#optimize_nesting(subroutines) ⇒ Array<Pattern>

Check if nesting would be beneficial TODO: Phase 2.1 - check if subroutines contain common patterns

Parameters:

  • subroutines (Array<Pattern>) —

    subroutines to analyze

Returns:

  • (Array<Pattern>) —

    subroutines (unchanged for now)

end

#optimize_ordering(subroutines) ⇒ Array<Pattern>

Optimize subroutine ordering by frequency Higher frequency patterns get lower IDs for more efficient encoding in CFF format.

Parameters:

  • subroutines (Array<Pattern>) —

    subroutines to order

Returns:

  • (Array<Pattern>) —

    ordered subroutines

# File 'lib/fontisan/optimizers/subroutine_optimizer.rb', line 53

def optimize_ordering(subroutines)
  # Higher frequency = lower ID (shorter encoding)
  # Use same comprehensive sort keys as optimize_selection for consistency
  subroutines.sort_by { |subr| [-subr.frequency, -subr.length, subr.glyphs.min, subr.bytes.bytes] }
end

#optimize_selection ⇒ Array<Pattern>

Select optimal subset of patterns to subroutinize Uses greedy algorithm: select by highest savings first, checking for conflicts with already selected patterns.

Returns:

  • (Array<Pattern>) —

    selected patterns
