DESCRIPTION

A collection of useful instance variables following the TTF standard. Probably the most used being numGlyphs. Note that this particular value is foundational and should be kept up to date by the application, it is not updated by update.

Handles table versions 0.5, 1.0

METHODS

$t->read

Reads the table into memory

$t->out($fh)

$t->update

Calculates all the maximum values for a font based on the glyphs in the font. Only those fields which require hinting code interpretation are ignored and left as they were read.
