There’s nothing which really requires the “d1” bbox to be accurate - it’s nice that is often is, but there’s no reason to expect it to be, really, as rendering doesn’t actually depend on it. Of course for “d0” glyphs the bbox is not even available. — John > Tilman > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] > For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected] > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
