Here are the two files. I replaced the CM font with the STIX one (most easy with matplotlib). (not so sure how to use the ones you suggested with matplotlib).
http://webloria.loria.fr/~rougier/tmp/glyph-metrics-horizontal.pdf http://webloria.loria.fr/~rougier/tmp/glyph-metrics-vertical.pdf The 'g' comes from the "Bitstream Vera Sans" if the information is needed. Of course, a better solution could be to use pgf/tikz but I did not find how to access all the glyph information.
