[gs-devel] A CJK expertise wanted / issue 3

[Leonardo]

Developers,

Thanks to all you who helped to choose a right implementation.
Especially thanks to Mr. Suzuki.

I think that we need more experimenting here.
I've committed the patch :
http://ghostscript.com/pipermail/gs-cvs/2006-February/006369.html
to simplify the experimenting.
Change gs\src\gxhintn.c ln 2241 to choose a diserable behavior :

#define PRESERVE_STEM_SLANT 1 /* 0 - always diminish
                             1 - preserve iff slanted in design space
                             2 - always preserve */

When experimenting, please account that we also need to test
a rotated or slanted text, in which stems may have or have no slanted stems.
Low curvity curves are also important.

I would very appreciate if your analysis includes
a vote for a specific value for PRESERVE_STEM_SLANT.
Thank you.

Leo.
