I had some fun with this a month or two ago. See the

be smaller than the extents of the (four character) string "'**'",
that's close but not quite how Windows does it.
Does GdiGetCharDimensions give you a better result?
That is the algorithm used by other user32 controls to work out the
"size" of a font.
