Release Notes for MECCA 2000 version 5.33.  Apr/18/2018


Fixed:

1. Certain OTF (OpenType Fonts) don't contain "FontFamily" information, causing
   error notification to appear when they are being installed.

   This situation is now caught, and dealt with using the first token -- those
   characters before the first dash -- in the full font name (psfxlfd).

2. Mirror: area graduation angle was incorrectly set.  Also, "Do as New Copy"
   did not maintain group (m2kbin).

3. The composer program (galeyc) sometimes used substituted font data
   (xlate table and character widths) for composition, when the current font
   and style combination does not match a known font.  However, it did not mark
   the resulting text as using the substituted font.  For example:

       \cf ti^\i^In Times Italic, then go into Symbol for \cf sym^ABCD
       \cf ti^, and now back to Times (still in Italic).

   Since there's no such thing as "Symbol Italic", the "ABCD" gets composed
   using Symbol Normal (sym/n) font data.  On output, that text is marked
   incorrectly as using sym/i for font.

   This is now corrected.  The example above now results in "ABCD" using font
   "sym/n" (galeyc, pmunu, typdrv, m2kbin).


Changed:

1. Retired searching code to match font size range for APS-5.
