The character shown in the .png (U+60CA) has a contour of width 0, namely all points have same x value (bug?), in the left top corner. It misleads FT_Outline_Get_Orientation. Thus instead of emboldened, each stroke got shrinked.
Similar issues have already been seen in some free traditional Chinese fonts. They have glyphs consisting of components of different orientations. I think it's a bug of the font and since those fonts are actively maintained, I reported the issue to the font authors, after failed to work around this in freetype. -- Regards, olv _______________________________________________ Freetype-devel mailing list Freetype-devel@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/freetype-devel
