Correct.  If you specify a glyph size of 10 pixels you can expect that
it (more or less) harmonizes with other fonts rendered at a size of
10 pixels.  It is completely unrelated to the actual size of the
glyphs.  To get the real glyph dimensions, compute the glyph's CBox
(which should be sufficient in most situations).
