v4.4
On *nix platforms, v4.4 eliminates any dependency on X. Previously devEMF tried to get font metric information using Xft (which in turn depends on Fontconfig and FreeType) and Xft requires a connection to an X server. This new release of devEMF avoids the need for an X server and instead directly uses the Fontconfig and FreeType libraries; thus devEMF now runs easily on remote servers without a graphical interface.
Also several minor fixes:
- properly handle multiple font families within one figure
- properly calculate figure dimensions when entered in units of mm
- use rounding instead of truncation when switching from floating point figure dimensions to integer figure dimensions in the EMF header.
