## Summary
Pared down version of #1418.
Following up on b5df6cb2b5. Added
lib/Memory/Memory.h with:
- `makeUniqueNoThrow<T>` a `nothrow` wrapper for `std::make_unique` that
return `nullptr` on OOM instead of calling `abort()` (the behavior of
bare `new` with `-fno-exceptions`)
- `ScopedCleanup` a helper to call a cleanup lambda on scope exit.
These utilities help to write code that handles OOM scenarios
gracefully, and consistently cleans up resources on scope exit.
JpegToBmpConverter.cpp has been converted to use these utilities. Other
files can be converted later.
This will simplify some of the SD card font resource management in
#1327.

## Summary
First of several changes to decouple and clean up SD card fonts
integration. This change eliminates SdCardFontGlobals.h:
- Simply declare the `extern SdCardFontSystem sdFontSystem` in
SdCardFontSystem.h.
- `ActivityManager::goToReader` should not care about loading SD card
fonts. Instead do the same work in `ReaderActivity::onEnter`, after the
previous activity has exited and after ReaderActivity has validated the
file path.

## Summary
Relative includes can hide inappropriate dependency relationships. In
this case, I found that lib/KOReaderSync/KOReaderCredentialStore.cpp was
dependent on src/JsonSettingsIO.h -- a lib -> app dependency, the
opposite direction dependencies should flow in this project.
This change replaces all relative includes with root-relative includes,
and corrects the KOReaderCredentialStore dependency by moving its JSON
settings serialization local to the KOReaderSync library.

Reverts crosspoint-reader/crosspoint-reader#1912
This was meant to be more robust with partial SD card fonts, but causes
trouble for folks using custom font sizes. We need a better approach to
decouple numeric font sizes from S/M/L/XL settings.
## Summary
#1910 caused a massive performance degradation in the way rasterized
glyph buffers were handled during pixel iteration. This change restores
the original performance characteristics so the font generation job
finishes in a reasonable amount of time.

## Summary
Deduplicated battery drawing code for Roundraff theme with other themes.
Now `BaseTheme` provides non-virtual `drawBatteryLeft` and
`drawBatteryRight` methods, which use a shared static
`drawBatteryOutline` implementation, and defer to a virtual
`fillBatteryIcon` implementation. In Classic and Roundraff
`fillBatteryIcon` uses a solid fill, while Lyra and Lyra Extended use a
segmented fill.
The charging indicator inside the battery was missing for Roundraff, but
is now consistent with other themes because of the shared drawing
implementation.

## Summary
The GitHub recent release API returns lots of data, including the full
release notes. For 1.2.0, that data is 30,530 bytes. The existing
OtaUpdater HTTP handler and single-buffer JSON parsing can't reliably
handle that much data in the constrained ESP32 environment.
This change does a few things:
1. Adds a very simple lib/JsonParser/StreamingJsonParser.cpp with
SAX-style callbacks to read JSON data incrementally.
2. Adds a very simple lib/JsonParser/ReleaseJsonParser.cpp building on
StreamingJsonParser, which specifically parses the GitHub release JSON
for the release version, URL, and size.
3. Updates OtaUpdater.cpp to use an instance of ReleaseJsonParser to
incrementally parse the large response it may receive from GitHub.
Building from this commit while overriding my local version to 1.1.9, I
was able to run the OTA update process ~5 times in a row successfully.
Fixes#1561 (second part, after #1805).

## Summary
Another follow up to #1408. That PR revised the language.bin settings
file to version 2. After merging, it occurred to me that it would make
more sense to have the language inside the overall settings.json file,
easy for users to see and change directly.
This change adds migration from language.bin to settings.json. It only
migrates from the pre-#1408 v1 language.bin format, because v2 has only
been in for a couple of commits and I don't think we need long-term
maintenance code to handle it.
#1408 had a potential long-term maintenance issue for migration. It
assumed that the enum order of languages never changes, only grows. So,
e.g. "Portuguese (Portugal)" could never be added next to "Portuguese
(Brazil)", only appended. This change includes a hardcoded frozen
ordering of the language indices as they existed at 2f969a9, and
migrates to storing a language code string in the settings.json instead
for future reordering flexibility.
Similar to the settings.bin to settings.json migration, which renames
settings.bin to settings.bin.bak, this change renames language.bin to
language.bin.bak after adding the language setting to settings.json.

## Summary
**What is the goal of this PR?**
Reading a book with frequent numbers, I noticed that the spacing between
numeral glyphs was strangely large. This was because Bookerly and Noto
Sans default to tabular figures, where every digit gets an identical
advance width. This is designed for column alignment in spreadsheets,
but in rendering prose it produces visually wide gaps between digits.
This change adds a `--pnum` flag to fontconvert.py that applies the
font's OpenType `pnum` (proportional numerals) feature during
conversion. When active, the converter:
- Parses the GSUB table for pnum SingleSubst lookups
- Resolves substitute glyph indices via fonttools' glyph order
- Loads the proportional alternate glyphs instead of the tabular
defaults
- Includes substitute glyph names in kern pair extraction, so kerning
data that references proportional alternates is captured
Bookerly's proportional alternates also carry digit-digit and
digit-punctuation kerning that the tabular glyphs lack (e.g., at 16pt
7->4 at -1.69px, 7->. at -2.31px, 7->1 at +1.00px).
Noto Sans gains proportional advances but no new kerning (its
proportional glyphs have no kern class data in the font).
OpenDyslexic is unaffected. Its `cmap` already points to proportional
glyphs, so `--pnum` is a no-op. `--pnum` is intentionally omitted from
OpenDyslexic in the build script for deliberately uniform digit spacing
as an accessibility choice.
UI fonts (Ubuntu, notosans_8) also omit `--pnum` to preserve tabular
alignment for page numbers, battery percentages, etc.

## Summary
**What is the goal of this PR?** (e.g., Implements the new feature for
file uploading.)
`DESTRUCTOR_CLOSES_FILE=1` is set in platformio.ini, which makes SdFat's
FsBaseFile destructor call close() automatically when a file goes out of
scope.
Three categories of file close calls remain untouched:
1. Close before Storage.remove() on the same path: ScreenshotUtil.cpp
closes the file before deleting it on write error. The remove might fail
if the file is still open.
2. Close before reopening the same variable: Epub.cpp writes a temp
NCX/nav file, closes it, then reopens it for reading. The
RecentBooksStore.cpp close before saveToFile() is the same pattern, it
rewrites the same file.
3. Close on member variables: BookMetadataCache.cpp (bookFile,
spineFile, tocFile), Section.cpp (file), XtcParser.cpp (m_file),
ZipFile.cpp (file). These persist beyond any single function scope, so
the destructor timing doesn't match the intended close point.

## Summary
**What is the goal of this PR?** (e.g., Implements the new feature for
file uploading.)
Combining diacritical marks (U+0300–U+036F) were positioned using a
heuristic that centered them at the midpoint of the base glyph's
**advance width**. This worked acceptably for Bookerly but produced
visibly off-center marks for Noto Sans due to a fundamental difference
in how the two fonts design their combining mark metrics.
Builds on the work of #1037.
## The problem
The two built-in body fonts encode combining mark `left` offsets with
very different conventions:
| Mark | Bookerly `left` | Noto Sans `left` |
|---|---|---|
| U+0301 (acute) | -2 | -10 |
| U+0300 (grave) | -5 | -15 |
| U+0302 (circumflex) | -5 | -5 |
| U+0323 (dot below) | -2 | -11 |
Noto Sans uses large negative `left` values because its marks are
designed for placement at the post-advance cursor position, with `left`
pulling the bitmap back over the base glyph. Bookerly uses small offsets
because its marks sit closer to the glyph origin. The old `advance/2`
centering split the difference poorly — it happened to land close to
correct for Bookerly but placed Noto Sans marks roughly 6px left of
center on a typical lowercase letter.
There was also a bug in the vertical gap heuristic. It unconditionally
computed a `raiseBy` value to prevent above-baseline marks from
colliding with tall base glyphs, but it applied the same logic to
**below-baseline** marks like cedilla (U+0327), dot below (U+0323), and
ogonek (U+0328). For those marks, the math produced a large positive
raise (e.g., 24px for dot-below on 'a'), launching them above the
x-height instead of keeping them below the baseline.
## The fix
**Horizontal positioning**: Instead of centering at `advance/2`, align
the mark bitmap's visual midpoint directly over the base glyph bitmap's
visual midpoint. This uses the base glyph's actual `left` and `width`
rather than its advance width, producing correct results regardless of
how the font encodes its mark offsets.
**Vertical positioning**: The raise heuristic now checks `markTop -
markHeight > 0` and skips below-baseline marks entirely, leaving them at
their font-designed position.
**Consolidation**: The shared math is extracted into two `constexpr`
helpers (`combiningMark::centerOver` and
`combiningMark::raiseAboveBase`) in `EpdFontData.h`, eliminating the
previously triplicated inline calculations across `drawText`,
`drawTextRotated90CW`, and `getTextBounds`. The `MIN_COMBINING_GAP_PX`
constant is also centralized as `combiningMark::MIN_GAP_PX`.

## Summary
**What is the goal of this PR?**
A tweak to the fixed-point x-advance and kerning calculations to ensure
that the spacing between any two glyphs is always calculated
consistently.
I noticed that sometimes I'd see common character pairs like "oo" more
than once on a page, and the distance between the two snapped to
different pixels depending on the running accumulated error for the line
of text.
This change uses a differential rounding approach where each glyph's
x-advance plus the kerning relative to the next glyph are combined in
fixed-point precision, then snapped to a pixel to draw the next glyph.
This results in a consistent inter-glyph spacing any time the same two
glyphs show up adjacent to each other, regardless of the accumulated
error across the line.

## Summary
EPUBs that use ISO 639-2 three-letter language codes in their
`dc:language` metadata (e.g. `<dc:language>eng</dc:language>`) got no
hyphenation. The hyphenator registry only matched ISO 639-1 two-letter
codes (`"en"`, `"fr"`, etc.), so `"eng"` produced a null hyphenator and
every word in the book was treated as unhyphenatable.
Added a normalization step in `hyphenatorForLanguage` that maps ISO
639-2 codes (both bibliographic and terminological variants) to their
two-letter equivalents before the registry lookup.
Discovered via *Project Hail Mary* (Random House), which uses
`<dc:language>eng</dc:language>`.

renders (e.g. 88% -> 87%), the digits would overlap on screen.
Fix: Removed the redundant `renderStatusBar()` from the second BW
render. The status bar is already drawn and displayed in the first pass,

**What is the goal of this PR?**
Until today, I sincerely thought we were building without exception
support. The codebase is not set up with any exception handling
infrastructure. The SKILL.md file specifies no exceptions.
I just learned that we actually were building with exceptions enabled,
with `-fexceptions` coming from
~/.platformio/packages/framework-arduinoespressif32-libs/esp32c3/pioarduino-build.py.
This change removes the `-fexceptions` flag and adds `-fno-exceptions`.
The result is **53,670 bytes in flash savings**.

### Problem
Inter-word gap widths were computed as two separately-snapped integers:
```cpp
gap = getSpaceWidth(fontId, style); // fp4::toPixel(spaceAdvance)
gap += getSpaceKernAdjust(fontId, leftCp, rightCp, style); // fp4::toPixel(kern1 + kern2)
```
Because `fp4::toPixel(a) + fp4::toPixel(b)` can differ from
`fp4::toPixel(a + b)` by +/-1 pixel when the fractional parts straddle a
rounding boundary, each inter-word space could be one pixel wider or
narrower than the correct value. This affected line-break width
decisions and word-position accumulation across the whole paragraph
layout pipeline.
### Fix
Replaces `getSpaceKernAdjust()` with `getSpaceAdvance(fontId, leftCp,
rightCp, style)`, which combines the space glyph advance and both
flanking kern values (`kern(leftCp, ' ')` + `kern(' ', rightCp)`) into a
single fixed-point sum before the snap:
```cpp
return fp4::toPixel(spaceAdvanceFP + kern(leftCp, ' ') + kern(' ', rightCp));
```
This is the same single-snap pattern already used by `getTextAdvanceX`
for word widths.
### Changes
- **`GfxRenderer`**: Replaces `getSpaceKernAdjust()` with
`getSpaceAdvance()`. `getSpaceWidth()` is retained for the
single-space-word case in `measureWordWidth` where no adjacent-word kern
context is available.
- **`ParsedText`**: All four call sites (`computeLineBreaks`,

## Summary
**What is the goal of this PR?**
This change avoids the pattern of creating a `std::string` using
`.substr` in order to compare against a file extension literal.
```c++
std::string path;
if (path.length() >= 4 && path.substr(path.length() - 4) == ".ext")
```
The `checkFileExtension` utility has moved from StringUtils to
FsHelpers, to be available to code in lib/. The signature now accepts a
`std::string_view` instead of `std::string`, which makes the single
implementation reusable for Arduino `String`.
Added utility functions for commonly repeated extensions.

## Summary
**What is the goal of this PR?**
Hopefully fixes#1182.
_Note: I think letterforms got a "heavier" appearance after #1098, which
makes this more noticeable. The current version of this PR reverts the
change to add `--force-autohint` for Bookerly, which to me seems to
bring the font back to a more aesthetic and consistent weight._
#### Problem
Character spacing was uneven in certain words. The word "drew" in
Bookerly was the clearest example: a visible gap between `d` and `r`,
while `e` and `w` appeared tightly condensed. The root cause was
twofold:
1. **Integer-only glyph advances.** `advanceX` was stored as a `uint8_t`
of whole pixels, sourced from FreeType's hinted `advance.x` (which
grid-fits to integers). A glyph whose true advance is 15.56px was stored
as 16px -- an error of +0.44px per character that compounds across a
line.
2. **Floor-rounded kerning.** Kern adjustments were converted with
`math.floor()`, which systematically over-tightened negative kerns. A
kern of -0.3px became -1px -- a 0.7px over-correction that visibly
closed gaps.
Combined, these produced the classic symptom: some pairs too wide,
others too tight, with the imbalance varying per word.
#### Solution: fixed-point accumulation with 1/16-pixel resolution, for
sub-pixel precision during text layout
All font metrics now use a "fixed-point 4" format -- 4 fractional bits
giving 1/16-pixel (0.0625px) resolution. This is implemented with plain
integer arithmetic (shifts and adds), requiring no floating-point on the
ESP32.
**How it works:**
A value like 15.56px is stored as the integer `249`:
```
249 = 15 * 16 + 9 (where 9/16 = 0.5625, closest to 0.56)
```
Two storage widths share the same 4 fractional bits:
| Field | Type | Format | Range | Use |
|-------|------|--------|-------|-----|
| `advanceX` | `uint16_t` | 12.4 | 0 -- 4095.9375 px | Glyph advance
width |
| `kernMatrix` | `int8_t` | 4.4 | -8.0 -- +7.9375 px | Kerning
adjustment |
Because both have 4 fractional bits, they add directly into a single
`int32_t` accumulator during layout. The accumulator is only snapped to
the nearest whole pixel at the moment each glyph is rendered:
```cpp
int32_t xFP = fp4::fromPixel(startX); // pixel to 12.4: startX << 4
for each character:
xFP += kernFP; // add 4.4 kern (sign-extends into int32_t)
int xPx = fp4::toPixel(xFP); // snap to nearest pixel: (xFP + 8) >> 4
render glyph at xPx;
xFP += glyph->advanceX; // add 12.4 advance
```
Fractional remainders carry forward indefinitely. Rounding errors stay
below +/- 0.5px and never compound.
#### Concrete example: "drew" in Bookerly
**Before** (integer advances, floor-rounded kerning):
| Char | Advance | Kern | Cursor | Snap | Gap from prev |
|------|---------|------|--------|------|---------------|
| d | 16 px | -- | 33 | 33 | -- |
| r | 12 px | 0 | 49 | 49 | ~2px |
| e | 13 px | -1 | 60 | 60 | ~0px |
| w | 22 px | -1 | 72 | 72 | ~0px |
The d-to-r gap was visibly wider than the tightly packed `rew`.
**After** (12.4 advances, 4.4 kerning, fractional accumulation):
| Char | Advance (FP) | Kern (FP) | Accumulator | Snap | Ink start | Gap
from prev |
|------|-------------|-----------|-------------|------|-----------|---------------|
| d | 249 (15.56px) | -- | 528 | 33 | 34 | -- |
| r | 184 (11.50px) | 0 | 777 | 49 | 49 | 0px |
| e | 208 (13.00px) | -8 (-0.50px) | 953 | 60 | 61 | 1px |
| w | 356 (22.25px) | -4 (-0.25px) | 1157 | 72 | 72 | 0px |
Spacing is now `0, 1, 0` pixels -- nearly uniform. Verified on-device:
all 5 copies of "drew" in the test EPUB produce identical spacing,
confirming zero accumulator drift.
#### Changes
**Font conversion (`fontconvert.py`)**
- Use `linearHoriAdvance` (FreeType 16.16, unhinted) instead of
`advance.x` (26.6, grid-fitted to integers) for glyph advances
- Encode kern values as 4.4 fixed-point with `round()` instead of
`floor()`
- Add `fp4_from_ft16_16()` and `fp4_from_design_units()` helper
functions
- Add module-level documentation of fixed-point conventions
**Font data structures (`EpdFontData.h`)**
- `EpdGlyph::advanceX`: `uint8_t` to `uint16_t` (no memory cost due to
existing struct padding)
- Add `fp4` namespace with `constexpr` helpers: `fromPixel()`,
`toPixel()`, `toFloat()`
- Document fixed-point conventions
**Font API (`EpdFont.h/cpp`, `EpdFontFamily.h/cpp`)**
- `getKerning()` return type: `int8_t` to `int` (to avoid truncation of
the 4.4 value)
**Rendering (`GfxRenderer.cpp`)**
- `drawText()`: replace integer cursor with `int32_t` fixed-point
accumulator
- `drawTextRotated90CW()`: same accumulator treatment for vertical
layout
- `getTextAdvanceX()`, `getSpaceWidth()`, `getSpaceKernAdjust()`,
`getKerning()`: convert from fixed-point to pixel at API boundary
**Regenerated all built-in font headers** with new 12.4 advances and 4.4
kern values.
#### Memory impact
Zero additional RAM. The `advanceX` field grew from `uint8_t` to
`uint16_t`, but the `EpdGlyph` struct already had 1 byte of padding at
that position, so the struct size is unchanged. The fixed-point
accumulator is a single `int32_t` on the stack.
#### Test plan
- [ ] Verify "drew" spacing in Bookerly at small, medium, and large
sizes
- [ ] Verify uppercase kerning pairs: AVERY, WAVE, VALUE
- [ ] Verify ligature words: coffee, waffle, office
- [ ] Verify all built-in fonts render correctly at each size
- [ ] Verify rotated text (progress bar percentage) renders correctly
- [ ] Verify combining marks (accented characters) still position
correctly
- [ ] Spot-check a full-length book for any layout regressions

filenames with many multibyte sequences from unexpectedly exceeding

## Summary
**What is the goal of this PR?**
Improved typesetting, including
[kerning](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kerning) and
[ligatures](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ligature_(writing)#Latin_alphabet).
**What changes are included?**
- The script to convert built-in fonts now adds kerning and ligature
information to the generated font headers.
- Epub page layout calculates proper kerning spaces and makes ligature
substitutions according to the selected font.



## Additional Context
- I am not a typography expert.
- The implementation has been reworked from the earlier version, so it
is no longer necessary to omit Open Dyslexic, and kerning data now
covers all fonts, styles, and codepoints for which we include bitmap
data.
- Claude Opus 4.6 helped with a lot of this.
- There's an included test epub document with lots of kerning and
ligature examples, shown in the photos.
**_After some time to mature, I think this change is in decent shape to
merge and get people testing._**
After opening this PR I came across #660, which overlaps in adding
ligature support.

## Summary
_Revision to @blindbat's #802. Description comes from the original PR._
- Replace `std::list` with `std::vector` for word storage in `TextBlock`
and `ParsedText`
- Use index-based access (`words[i]`) instead of iterator advancement
(`std::advance(it, n)`)
- Remove the separate `continuesVec` copy that was built from
`wordContinues` for O(1) access — now unnecessary since
`std::vector<bool>` already provides O(1) indexing
## Why
`std::list` allocates each node individually on the heap with 16 bytes
of prev/next pointer overhead per node. For text layout with many small
words, this means:
- Scattered heap allocations instead of contiguous memory
- Poor cache locality during iteration (each node can be anywhere in
memory)
- Per-node malloc/free overhead during construction and destruction
`std::vector` stores elements contiguously, giving better cache
performance during the tight rendering and layout loops. The
`extractLine` function also benefits: list splice was O(1) but required
maintaining three parallel iterators, while vector range construction
with move iterators is simpler and still efficient for the small
line-sized chunks involved.

## Test plan
- [ ] Open an EPUB with mixed formatting (bold, italic, underline) —
verify text renders correctly
- [ ] Open a book with justified text — verify word spacing is correct
- [ ] Open a book with hyphenation enabled — verify words break
correctly at hyphens
- [ ] Navigate through pages rapidly — verify no rendering glitches or
crashes
- [ ] Open a book with long paragraphs — verify text layout matches
pre-change behavior

## Summary
**What is the goal of this PR?**
`hasPrintableChars` does a pass over text before rendering. It looks up
glyphs in the font and measures dimensions, returning early if the text
results in zero size.
This additional pass doesn't offer any benefit over moving straight to
rendering the text, because the rendering loop already gracefully
handles missing glyphs. This change saves an extra pass over all
rendered text.
Note that both `hasPrintableChars` and `renderChar` replace missing
glyphs with `glyph = getGlyph(REPLACEMENT_GLYPH)`, so there's no
difference for characters which are not present in the font.

This change fixes an issue I noticed while reading where occasionally,
especially in italics, some words would have too much space between
them. The problem was that word width calculations were including any
negative X overhang, and combined with a space before the word, that can
lead to an inconsistently large space.
