Are you certain that you're using a FT_Face that corresponds to the face
the bitmaps were loaded from ? There is no kerning cache in FreeType for
now, which means that you'll need to use FTC_Lookup_Face to get the correct
source object for kerning information.

Apart from that, I don't see a reason why this shouldn't work !?

Hope this helps,
