- WOFF previously crashed; WOFF2 silently returned default-instance glyphs - Variations now keep the original source format instead of falling back to plain SFNT - WOFF tables are decompressed up front so internal offsets stay valid for variation processing - WOFF2 transformed glyphs now flow through the variation pipeline - Source state is shared across variations so brotli/inflate doesn't re-run per call, while each variation keeps its own glyph caches

- A variation shared the parent font's cache of glyphs requested with other code points, such as ligatures, and returned the parent's glyphs (foliojs#377) - Reset it along with the glyph cache when cloning the font - Add a test requesting a glyph with other code points from a variation

Closing in favour of #389, which handles WOFF2 composite glyphs and phantom points correctly and builds each variation as a fresh font. Thanks @sidorares for the thorough comparison. Could you please address the review on #389 and rebase it, so it can be merged soon? |

The
getVariation()API was broken for compressed source formats: WOFF threw because the variation constructor was always plain SFNT and couldn't reparse the directory, and WOFF2 silently returned default-instance glyphs because the transformed-glyf path bypassed the variation pipeline entirely.Tests cover TTF/WOFF/WOFF2 parity for the upstream variable fixtures (gvar point sharing, HVAR advance variation, HVAR fallback), plus invariants: subclass is preserved, source font isn't mutated, and repeated calls with the same coords are stable.
