Help! For font manager fonts, what is the equivalent to getheight() and getdescender() ? I was hoping for something like: long getheight(fmfonthandle), but there doesn't seem to be such a thing. I'd guess the way to do this is to get a fm info structure and peek inside. I can't quite figure out what the fields mean. Is height the height above the baseline or the total? Is yorigin the height of the baseline above the bottom?
