Windows Mobile Update: Freetype

11.03.08 - 03:05pm

I’ve implemented a freetype font back end for Windows and Windows CE that we’ll be using for Fennec.  This will allow Fennec to render international fonts we were previously incapable of handling.

There’s still plenty of work to do, but I can’t wait until we can benefit from Madhava’s upcoming small screen UI

Also, for any of you who attempted to build in the last 10 days, we did a pretty major rearchitecting that broke the build for a while. That has been resolved now and you should have more luck building.

    I have a windows mobile device, and I love Firefox. How would I try this out? Is there any testing I can do to help? Docs to write? Something?
