ISSUE-318 (HRM glyph copy assumes no sub-pixel positioning): Hypothetical Render Model glyph copy assumes no sub-pixel positioning [TTML IMSC 1.0] http://www.w3.org/AudioVideo/TT/tracker/issues/318 Raised by: Nigel Megitt On product: TTML IMSC 1.0 IMSC 1 FPWD includes in the Hypothetical Render Model a test for how two glyphs can be considered identical for buffer copying purposes. This does not take into account sub-pixel positioning of anti-aliased text, which would result in different per-pixel buffer values for a glyph that would otherwise be considered identical using the current criteria. For presentation devices that layout text using sub-pixel accuracy and render glyphs with anti-aliasing this test of identity will fail resulting in wrongly painted glyphs. I propose that an extra criterion is added to the glyph identity test that the post-layout sub-pixel offset relative to the pixel grid, horizontally and vertically, is identical.
