Great time for asking then: are subglyph positions rounded as part
of the hinting process?
It depends on a flag in the glyph's data, ROUND_XY_TO_GRID, if the
subglyph's offset is given as xy values. However, for the particular
DejaVu glyph, the subglyphs all have a zero offset, but point

Not my problem :-) According to the font's gasp table, hinting should
be switched off below 9pt.

Yes, I know. I can only repeat: The bytecode goes havoc because it
doesn't work at this size. This
What's wrong with that?
Stick it on a canvas, call it modern art and you'll make a fortune.

This *is* nice!

I wonder how such glaring problems can be part of one of the most used

That was my first thought too. Of course, I only noticed this because I made
hb-view print ANSI-art if outputting to a terminal!

Hi,
I was playing with Unicode box characters, and noticed that DejaVu Sans
creates the glyph for ▟ out of three quadrant boxes. At different sizes I can
see very noticeable seams where the sub-glyphs meet. I thought FreeType would
handle these cases better, but seems like I'm wrong. Any
