There seems to be a bug in the windows rasterizer that it will ignore bitmap metrics (and use scaled outline metrics even if displaying bitmaps) if but 0x10 of the 'head'.flags field is unset.
Since metrics data are present in the bitmap strikes, presumably those data should be used when displaying bitmaps, but windows does not always do this. _______________________________________________ Freetype mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/freetype
