What if the line is rendered with a single font? Which font attributes
are involved, exactly? Suppose I have a font and I know the content of
the line as a sequence of code points. Surely there are some font
attributes that the Cocoa text system queries that I can also query
myself?

Thanks, I'll take a look. Does NSATSTypesetter work on 64-bit systems?
The documentation mentions it uses ATSUI, and I thought this did not
exist in the 64-bit libraries.
