Forgive me if I misunderstand, but your 0001-truetype-Correctly-reset-point-tags-for-glyph-compon.patch fixes one issue, in that the circumflex for glyph #2171 was half 'high' and half 'low' when hinted. After applying the patch, the circumflex is entirely 'low', the same as glyph #733, but that still looks wrong to me (when comparing hinted vs unhinted). In other words, the problem I noted in the original post I made 7 days ago still isn't fixed, and that's the thing we're waiting for a response from Microsoft, right? _______________________________________________ Freetype mailing list [email protected] https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/freetype
