It seems the issue I'm seeing is a FreeType bug with CFF fonts that have embedded bitmaps: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/freetype/2013-03/msg00009.html If I remove the FT_LOAD_NO_HINTING flag or added FT_LOAD_NO_BITMAP I get the correct advances. FT_LOAD_NO_BITMAP should be fine for my use case since we don't support bitmap fonts anyway, but I'm not sure if it is OK for the general case (FreeType doc says the flag is ignored for bitmap only fonts, but what effect does it have on fonts with embedded bitmaps?).
