OK, here's some code, and some output. (My emails seem to be
consistently held for moderation; I apologize for the apparent delays in
responding).
This code (in a Django view function):
im = Image.new("RGB", (300, 300), '#ffffc0')
draw = ImageDraw.Draw(im)
font = ImageFont.truetype('timesbi.ttf', 50)
draw.text((100, 100), "jigf", font=font, fill='black')
response = HttpResponse(mimetype='image/png')
im.save(response, 'PNG')
return response
produces two different results, attached. One is with PIL 1.1.5, the
other with 1.1.6. 1.1.5 produces the text in the proper place, but with
the bulbs of the j and f wrapped around to the other end of the text.
1.1.6 doesn't wrap the bulbs, but has clipped the j severely, and has
mis-positioned the text so as to keep the entire f in the drawing.
Is this not something other people are seeing?

So "joe" might lose part of the bulb of the j and display it below the e.
But 1.1.6 still clips the bulb. It no longer transports the lost
pixels to the other end of the string....

In this case, there is no clipping boundary, and there are plenty of
pixels to accommodate the extremeties of the letters. The wrapping has
been fixed, but the clipping still occurs. Is this true or not?
Well, it sounds to me like you need to provide code, not simply
describe what might be going on. There's no reason to debug a
description if you can make a simple small example (and that
example will be needed for a regression test in any case).
