here's what I think is a better version of the start of the
function. [...]
This is now in the git repository (with small fixes to make it
compile).
Thanks a lot! Please test.

The Calibri font shipped in Windows XP has bitmap strikes for a
variety of sizes, but from what I understand, no bitmap glyphs for
many ligature combination it defines in its GSUB table, for example,
for 'tt', 'ft', 'ffi' among others. That results in very ugly
rendering (see attached).
You're welcome - I see that you had to get rid of a check on the return
value of gray_render_line, which I forgot about. That is there because I
use a modified version of FreeType that can be compiled as pure .NET
intermediate language code; and to do that I had to get rid of setjmp

[...] I use a modified version of FreeType that can be compiled as

rid of setjmp and longjmp; incidentally, with no performance penalty
and little extra complexity.
Is this something we should consider in general? I mean, are
In your image, why are the ligatures anti-aliased, while the main text
is not? Surely you should generate non-anti-aliased glyphs to go with
the non-anti-aliased bitmaps stored in the font file; or, if
anti-aliasing is desired, the stored bitmaps should not be used.
In general, it should not
No, I don't think it's worth worrying about this right now. I worked on
this because I wanted to create a version of my CartoType library as a
portable .NET assembly, and in fact I managed to compile CartoType as
C++/CLI code, which is a tribute to its robustness; but to do that I had

Indeed. They are only used for error-handling in the validator modules.

Unfortunately not only there but in the rasterizer, if memory serves.
They were not in any place where I could get rid of them easily by
disabling certain features.
