Hi Y'All,
(Thanks Luca. Things on my end improving.)
*** Important UNIX & Win32 ***
luca, tf & I have been looking at glyphBox() and gr_Abi_CharArea.cpp
The UNIX implementation of glyphBox() seems to use a fixed size of font
(i.e., cache size, 120) to calculate the bounding box of the glyph and
doesn't return layout units. The plug-in therefore does some weird
scaling using measureUnremappedChar() methods to compensate. The Win32
implementation of glyphBox() is understandably confused.
Occam would be slitting his wrists by this point.
Bemused, Frank
