The 'kern' table of the font in gotykposzarpany3.zip contains these
values:
d o 265
o p 42
p r 83
r z -31
z e 244
e d -131
d z 111
z i 196
i a 40
Which is what ff is displaying. So that bit is right.Next I took the d glyph and pasted the o glyph into it and moved the o glyph by the width of "d" (see do-Gotky-nokern.png) Then I moved the "o" outlines by the kerning amount (265). (see do-Gotky-kern.png) I measured the distance between the right edge of "d" and the left edge of "o", it is approximately 160 units. The horizontal size of the counter of "o" is approximately 300 units. I used xmag to expand the results of ftstring distance d-o: ~21pixels horizontal o counter: ~18pixels I used xmag on the ff metrics view distance d-o: ~9pixels horizontal o counter: ~20pixels So ftstring gives the distance between d & o as more than the counter, while the splines & ff's metricsview suggest it should be about half the counter. (I'm still using 2.0.9 for ftstring) Anyway if ff is making an error it is not obvious to me.
