What's the situation with kerning?
Can I assume that kerning is not supported on Type1 fonts? If so, are
there any plans to enable the reading of afm files associated with Type1
fonts to obtains kerning data?
Even with truetype fonts, I don't seem to get any result from setting
the KERNING

Not supported and there are no plans.

If its not working for TextLayout then there's not much point looking at
GlyphVector.
I suggest to try using Times New Roman or perhaps Arial directly with
TextLayout
This definitely works fine and if there's still no kerning you probably
have a bug in your code.

My Previous post was completely off the track :(
TextAttribute.WIDTH applies to the width (condensed/regular/extended) of a font
(duh!)
anyway... i can see that in order to
properlykernsometext I would have to use a GlyphVector with a
custom glyph layout..
but I'm currently usinga TextLayer
