List of improvements since 2.3 (from the NEWS file):

  • Additional self-tests, now in separate file (luaotfload-diagnostics.lua)
  • Better path and directory handling, especially on Windows
  • database now indexes Type1 fonts (PFA, PFB) and makes them accessible with style modifiers (requires --format=+pfa,pfb option to luaotfload-tool)
  • Test runner (script mktests)
  • New luaotfload-tool option: --no-reload
  • luaotfload-tool --find now understands request syntax
  • text (Lua script) version of the font index is filtered through gzip by default, the --no-compress option of luaotfload-tool will prevent this
  • rename luaotfload-merged.lua (the fontloader package from Context) to luaotfload-fontloader.lua
  • Treat arguments of the letterspace option as percentages; add kernfactor option that behaves as before.
  • Remove imported version of typo-krn.lua. Xetex-style per-font letterspacing is now the canonical method.
  • Merge functionality from extralibs (fake Context layer) into luaotfload-letterspace.lua as it is only needed there anyways.
