Hi, I've a font that uses embedded bitmaps between certain point sizes, now 
when I use FT_Load_Char in the range these bitmaps reside, the bitmaps get 
displayed correctly but there seems that the metrics are based on the bitmaps 
bounds rather than the matrics had an outline been used, mainly advance etc, I 
know this font displays fine in WordPad which usually makes a mess of some 
fonts so I guess I'm getting the metrics wrong or doing something else silly.
 
At the moment I've tried getting values from slot->metrics->hori* and 
width/height, these work fine for anything that doesn't use embedded bitmaps, 
I've also tried following the samples on displaying fonts by using 
slot->bitmap_left/top/width/rows etc and these yield the same results, so I 
wondered what the correct procedure is for getting metrics ? or would it be a 
case of getting the metrics ignoring the bitmap metrics and if so how would I 
do this ?
 
Regards,
 
Nik.
