Thanks for all the work! I am glad we get to the bottom of this :-). It explains too why ghostscript fails but mupdf works, from the same-ish group of people - I think mupdf ignores hinting instructions.

Btw, been wondering if something could/should be done on freetype too - whIle we know where the broken hinting instructions came about in this case, similar problem can come from a different source too.
