Hi.

I am writing (patching actually) an application where I am only interested
in rendering fixed-size fonts using Xft, to benefit from anti-aliasing.

What is the canoncial way of figuring out the maximal extents that a glyph
cell needs ?

The only values in FT_FaceRec_ that seem to make sense numerically are the
max_advance_width and max_advance_height. 

Will I need to traverse all glyphs and collect their extents, even for
fixed-size fonts ?


Kind regards,

Karl T
