[ft-devel] Re: render error after "ftgrays: Speed up rendering of small cubic splines."

[GRAHAM ASHER]

Thanks for that. I'll have a look at it when I have time - probably at the 
weekend. I must say though that I did not make this checkin. Although the 
change 
is due to a suggestion of mine, someone else made the change and 'kindly' 
attributed it to me.

Can you supply the font file too? I assume it's an Adobe Type 1 file or 
something like that.
