Re: [ft] Problem on render 'j' on non-monospace font face.

[昌霖]

Hi,

  Thanks for your hint.

  I found the problem is cause by the bitmap_left is negative for character j, so I will have wrong index when copy the bitmap image to opencv.

Hi,

I could reproduce the problem by your testing code,
but yet I'm not sure if this is FreeType2 problem.
Because,

1) if I use "ftstring" included in freetype2-demos
(you can use your own testing text, although the
default text is "brown fox...".)

2) if I execute your program with bigger glyph size
(e.g. height=128 etc), my impression on the "bug dot"
at the lower-right corner of "j" is looking like a
clipped overflow from the lower-left end of "j".
If I look very carefully, the lower-left end of "j"
is not connected smoothly, it seems as if there is
a crack.

Could you check more detail on the code copying
the bitmap image from FreeType2 to OpenCV?

# Yet I've not checked your code at all.
