freetypy.Glyph_Metrics

class freetypy.Glyph_Metrics

Models the metrics of a single Glyph.

Notes

If not disabled with LOAD.NO_HINTING, the values represent dimensions of the hinted glyph (in case hinting is applicable).

Stroking a glyph with an outside border does not increase horiAdvance or vertAdvance; you have to manually adjust these values to account for the added width and height.

__init__()

x.__init__(...) initializes x; see help(type(x)) for signature
