Re: [ft-devel] GF's cmap fails

Well, the glyphs aren't `loaded'; you are rather collecting the file
offsets in an array.

Yes.
 

> It loads glyphs in the increasing order of their character code.

Not necessarily: The order of `char_loc' commands could be arbitrary,
say,

  Character 3: dx 3801088 (58), width 728179 (57.65427), loc 11007
  Character 4: dx 3604480 (55), width 699053 (55.34819), loc 11226
  Character 0: dx 3407872 (52), width 655362 (51.88892), loc 10368
  Character 1: dx 4521984 (69), width 873816 (69.18521), loc 10521
  Character 2: dx 4259840 (65), width 815562 (64.57289), loc 10736
  Character 5: dx 4063232 (62), width 786434 (62.26666), loc 11365

Yes.

You have to do sorting again!  I wrote in my last e-mail that you need
*two* *separate* arrays so that you can replace the `linear searching'
with accessing a pre-sorted array instead.

Oh yes! I get it.

Thanks.
