Change History
--------------
+2022-02-24 luaotfload v3.19
+
+ * When used with LuaTeX 1.15.0 or newer, variable fonts are supported
+ when using the harf shaper too.
+ * A new algorithm for selecting fonts based on font family names allows
+ to more reliably load fonts based on their family name.
+ * The compiled font database gets compressed to reduce disk space and
+ improve performance on newer systems.
+ * Text automatically gets normalized to Unicode's NFC before shaping.
+ This improves rendering for text written in decomposed forms for many
+ fonts. This can be turned off by passing the -normalize font feature.
+ * The fontloader has been synced with the context code from 2022-02-24.
+ This fixes some broken rendering of TrueType based variable fonts.
+ * A number of small bugfixes.
+
2021-05-21 luaotfload v3.18
* Allow using variable fonts without explicitly specifying any axis values
