[gs-code-review] Patch(es) for bug #688971 "hugeperformaceproblem(with large TT font?)" |

Dear SaGS,

Theoretically you can.
The font access should work with FreeType plugin,
rather it has graphic problems (glyph positioning, etc.).
I'm not sure whether you should spend time for FreeType plugin,
due to no practical cases. However debugging FAPI would be useful.
So you may try FreeType plugin if you have nothing to do else.

Leo.
