In my prototype I've just called FT_New_Face() pointing to the same file,
but I've then done a FT_Set_Char_Size() operation on it, then FT_Load is
done on the resulting object.
If you only use FTC_Manager_LookupFace (i.e. not FTC_Manager_LookupSize),
and if you always use FT_Set_Char_Size on a FT_Face returned by the cache
manager, your program will be correct.
However, I'd recommend using FTC_Manager_LookupSize instead, since this
will avoid you calling FT_Set_Char_Size which can be relatively slow in
certain cases (e.g. with the bytecode interpreter enabled)
If I use FTC_Manager_LookupSize() and I use the size-face object, is
this different for each size requested?
yes, since the cache should hold no more than a single FT_Face object for
a given FTC_FaceID value. However keep in mind that these objects might be
purged from the cache on your next call to a cache function.
Hope this helps,
Great font engine, BTW.
