+    <p>Unlike glyph metrics, global ones are used to describe distances and

+    pixel format or in design <em>font units</em> for scalable formats.</p>
 
-  <p>Note that the <tt><b>face->size->metrics</b></tt> structure contains other
-  fields that are used to scale design coordinates to device space. They're
-  described, in the last chapter.</p>

+        a. Design global metrics
+      </h4>
 
-  <h4>
-    c. Kerning:
-  </h4>  
-  
-  <p>Kerning is the process of adjusting the position of two subsequent
-     glyph images in a string of text, in order to improve the general
-     appearance of text. Basically, it means that when the glyph for an
-     "A" is followed by the glyph for a "V", the space between them can
-     be slightly reduced to avoid extra "diagonal whitespace".</p>
-     
-  <p>Note that in theory, kerning can happen both in the horizontal and
-     vertical direction between two glyphs; however, it only happens in
-     the horizontal direction in nearly all cases except really extreme
-     ones.</p>
+      <p>For scalable formats, all global metrics are expressed in font
+      units in order to be later scaled to device space, according to the
+      rules described in the last chapter of this part of the tutorial.  You
+      can access them directly as simple fields of a <tt>FT_Face</tt>
+      handle.</p>
 
-  <p>Note all font formats contain kerning information. Instead, they sometimes
-     rely on an additional file that contains various glyph metrics, including
-     kerning, but no glyph images. A good example would be the Type 1 format,
-     where glyph images are stored in a file with extension ".pfa" or ".pfb",
-     and where kerning metrics can be found in an additional file with extension
-     ".afm" or ".pfm".</p>
-     
-  <p>FreeType 2 allows you to deal with this, by providing the
-     <tt><b>FT_Attach_File</b></tt> and <tt><b>FT_Attach_Stream</b></tt> APIs.
-     Both functions are used to load additional metrics into a face object,
-     by reading them from an additional format-specific file. For example,
-     you could open a Type 1 font by doing the following:</p>
-     
-  <pre><font color="blue">
-      error = FT_New_Face( library, "/usr/shared/fonts/cour.pfb", 0, &face );
-      if (error) { ... }
-      
-      error = FT_Attach_File( face, "/usr/shared/fonts/cour.afm" );

-  <p>In order to show off what we just learned, we will now show how to modify
-     the example code that was provided in section I to render a string of text,
-     and enhance it to support kerning and delayed rendering.</p>
+      <p>Note that the <tt>face->size->metrics</tt> structure contains other
+      fields that are used to scale design coordinates to device space.
+      They are described below.</p>
 
-   <h4>
-     a. Kerning support:
-   </h4>
-   
-   <p>Adding support for kerning to our code is trivial, as long as we consider
-      that we're still dealing with a left-to-right script like Latin. We
-      simply need to retrieve the kerning distance between two glyphs in order
-      to alter the pen position appropriately. The code looks like:</p>
-      
-   <font color="blue"><pre>
-      FT_GlyphSlot  slot = face->glyph;  // a small shortcut
-      FT_UInt       glyph_index;
-      FT_Bool       use_kerning;
-      FT_UInt       previous;
-      int           pen_x, pen_y, n;
+      <h4>
+        c. Kerning
+      </h4>
 
-      .. initialise library ..
-      .. create face object ..
-      .. set character size ..
-      
-      pen_x = 300;
-      pen_y = 200;
-      
-      use_kerning = FT_HAS_KERNING(face);
-      previous    = 0;
-      
-      for ( n = 0; n &lt; num_chars; n++ )
+      <p>Kerning is the process of adjusting the position of two subsequent
+      glyph images in a string of text, in order to improve the general
+      appearance of text.  Basically, it means that when the glyph for an
+      "A" is followed by the glyph for a "V", the space between them can be
+      slightly reduced to avoid extra "diagonal whitespace".</p>
+
+      <p>Note that in theory, kerning can happen both in the horizontal and
+      vertical direction between two glyphs; however, it only happens in the
+      horizontal direction in nearly all cases except really extreme
+      ones.</p>
+
+      <p>Not all font formats contain kerning information.  Instead, they
+      sometimes rely on an additional file that contains various glyph
+      metrics, including kerning, but no glyph images.  A good example would
+      be the Type&nbsp;1 format, where glyph images are stored in a file
+      with extension <tt>.pfa</tt> or <tt>.pfb</tt>, and where kerning
+      metrics can be found in an additional file with extension
+      <tt>.afm</tt> or <tt>.pfm</tt>.</p>
+
+      <p>FreeType&nbsp;2 allows you to deal with this by providing the
+      <tt>FT_Attach_File()</tt> and <tt>FT_Attach_Stream()</tt> APIs.  Both
+      functions are used to load additional metrics into a face object, by
+      reading them from an additional format-specific file.  For example,
+      you could open a Type&nbsp;1 font by doing the following:</p>
+
+      <font color="blue">
+      <pre>
+    error = FT_New_Face( library,
+                         "/usr/shared/fonts/cour.pfb",
+                         0,
+                         &amp;face );
+    if ( error ) { ... }
+
+    error = FT_Attach_File( face, "/usr/shared/fonts/cour.afm" );
+    if ( error ) { .. could not read kerning and additional metrics .. }</pre>
+      </font>
+
+      <p>Note that <tt>FT_Attach_Stream()</tt> is similar to
+      <tt>FT_Attach_File()</tt> except that it doesn't take a C&nbsp;string
+      to name the extra file, but a <tt>FT_Stream</tt> handle.  Also,
+      <em>reading a metrics file is in no way mandatory</em>.</p>
+
+      <p>Finally, the file attachment APIs are very generic and can be used
+      to load any kind of extra information for a given face.  The nature of
+      the additional data is entirely font format specific.</p>
+
+      <p>FreeType&nbsp;2 allows you to retrieve the kerning information
+      between two glyphs through the <tt>FT_Get_Kerning()</tt> function,
+      whose interface looks like</p>
+
+      <font color="blue">
+      <pre>
+    FT_Vector  kerning;
+
+

+
+      <p>As can be seen, the function takes a handle to a face object, the

+      described in a previous part.  It is an enumeration value that

+
+      <p>The default value <tt>ft_kerning_mode_default</tt> (which has
+      value&nbsp;0) corresponds to kerning distances expressed in 26.6

+      of&nbsp;64).  For scalable formats, this means that the design kerning
+      distance is scaled, then rounded.</p>
+
+      <p>The value <tt>ft_kerning_mode_unfitted</tt> corresponds to kerning
+      distances expressed in 26.6 unfitted pixels (i.e. that do not

-  <p>Scalable font formats usually store a single vectorial image, called
-     an "outline", for each in a face. Each outline is defined in an abstract
-     grid called the "design space", with coordinates expressed in nominal
-     "font units". When a glyph image is loaded, the font driver usually
-     scales the outline to device space according to the current character
-     pixel size found in a <tt>FT_Size</tt> object. The driver may also
-     modify the scaled outline in order to significantly improve its
-     appearance on a pixel-based surface (a process known as "hinting"
-     or "grid-fitting").</p>
-     
-  <p>This chapter describes how design coordinates are scaled to device

-      In order to perform "true" WYSIWYG text layout

-

-      In order to access font content for conversion or analysis purposes
-    </p></li>
-  </ul>
+      <p>Note however that a normal implementation would use a glyph cache

-  <h4>a.Scaling distances to device space:</h4>
-  
-  <p>Design coordinates are scaled to device space using a simple scaling
-     transform, whose coefficients are computed with the help of the
-     <em><b>character pixel size</b></em>:</p>
-     
-  <pre><font color="purple">

+      6. Accessing metrics in design font units, and scaling them
+    </h3>
 
-  <p>Here, the value <b><tt>EM_size</tt></b> is font-specific and correspond
-     to the size of an abstract square of the design space (called the "EM"),
-     which is used by font designers to create glyph images. It is thus
-     expressed in font units. It is also accessible directly for scalable
-     font formats as <tt><b>face->units_per_EM</b></tt>. You should
-     check that a font face contains scalable glyph images by using the
-     <tt><b>FT_IS_SCALABLE(face)</b></tt> macro, which returns true when
-     appropriate.</p>
+    <p>Scalable font formats usually store a single vectorial image, called
+    an <em>outline</em>, for each in a face.  Each outline is defined in an
+    abstract grid called the <em>design space</em>, with coordinates
+    expressed in nominal <em>font units</em>.  When a glyph image is loaded,
+    the font driver usually scales the outline to device space according to

+    The driver may also modify the scaled outline in order to significantly
+    improve its appearance on a pixel-based surface (a process known as
+    <em>hinting</em> or <em>grid-fitting</em>).</p>
 
-  <p>When you call the function <tt><b>FT_Set_Pixel_Sizes</b></tt>, you're
-     specifying the value of <tt>pixel_size_x</tt> and <tt>pixel_size_y</tt>
-     you want to use to FreeType, which will immediately compute the values
-     of <tt>x_scale</tt> and <tt>y_scale</tt>.</p>
+    <p>This section describes how design coordinates are scaled to device
+    space, and how to read glyph outlines and metrics in font units.  This
+    is important for a number of things:</p>
 
-  <p>When you call the function <tt><b>FT_Set_Char_Size</b></tt>, you're
-     specifying the character size in physical "points", which is used,
-     along with the device's resolutions, to compute the character pixel
-     size, then the scaling factors.</p>
+    <ul>
+      <li>
+        <p>to perform "true" WYSIWYG text layout.</p>

+        <p>to access font data for conversion or analysis purposes</p>
+      </li>
+    </ul>
 
-  <p>Note that after calling any of these two functions, you can access
-     the values of the character pixel size and scaling factors as fields
-     of the <tt><b>face->size->metrics</b></tt> structure. These fields are:</p>

-  <center>
-  <table width="80%" cellpadding="5"><tr valign=top><td>

+      <h4>
+        a. Scaling distances to device space
+      </h4>
 
-  <p>Basically, this means that you can scale a distance expressed in
-     font units to 26.6 pixels directly with the help of the <tt>FT_MulFix</tt>
-     function, as in:</p>
-     
-  <pre><font color="blue">

-      pixels_y = FT_MulFix( design_y, face->size->metrics.y_scale );
-  </font></pre>
-  
-  <p>However, you can also scale the value directly with more accuracy
-     by using doubles and the equations:</p>
-     
-  <pre><font color="blue">

-  </font></pre>
-  
-  <h4>
-    b. Accessing design metrics (glyph & global):
-  </h4>
-  
-  <p>You can access glyph metrics in font units simply by specifying the
-     <tt><b>FT_LOAD_NO_SCALE</b></tt> bit flag in <tt>FT_Load_Glyph</tt>
-     or <tt>FT_Load_Char</tt>. The metrics returned in
-     <tt>face->glyph->metrics</tt> will all be in font units.</p>
-  
-  <p>You can access unscaled kerning data using the

+      <font color="purple">
+      <pre>
+    device_x = design_x * x_scale
+    device_y = design_y * y_scale
 
-  <p>Finally, a few global metrics are available directly in font units
