Hey Charlie, I'd be happy to run your scripts (I'm reposting your font and test script again for the benefit of others who wish to run the script as well). Looks like my Mac and Windows systems agree with your windows system (both running pygame 1.8.1) . I would think the next logical step would be to run a little c program that uses SDL_ttf directly to get the numbers your test script does, and see if it confirms the same glyph metrics as the pygame script. The purpose there being to determine if pygame is affecting results.
My Windows Vista box: ---------------- (11, 16) (12, 16) <Surface(22x16x32 SW)> <Surface(23x16x32 SW)> [(0, 10, 0, 8, 11), (0, 10, 0, 8, 11)] [(0, 10, 0, 8, 11), (0, 11, 0, 8, 12)] ---------------- My OS X 10.5 (i.e. unix) --------------- (11, 16) (12, 16) <Surface(22x16x32 SW)> <Surface(23x16x32 SW)> [(0, 10, 0, 8, 11), (0, 10, 0, 8, 11)] [(0, 10, 0, 8, 11), (0, 11, 0, 8, 12)] ---------------- On Tue, Sep 2, 2008 at 3:19 AM, Charlie Nolan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>wrote: > 4.
