Vertical bearings does not exist when calling `glyph_ver_side_bearings` about ttf-parser HOT 4 CLOSED

From your picture:

• bearingX is face.glyph_hor_side_bearing()
• bearingY is not present in TrueType fonts, but you could try face.ascender() instead or guess/calculate it manually from the glyph's bbox
• width is face.glyph_bounding_box(id).unwrap().width()
• height is face.glyph_bounding_box(id).unwrap().height()
• advance is face.glyph_hor_advance()

from ttf-parser.

Vertical bearing and advance are only used by vertical fonts. Yours is probably not the one.

You can try checking the presence of the vmtx table via face.tables().vmtx.is_some()

what I would need to do in order to get the vertical bearings.

Can you show in a picture what exactly you want to get? Like this:

Oh I see. So I was basing my knowledge from the LearnOpenGL Text Rendering and this is how they defined bearings. I didn't realize that vertical bearings was for vertical fonts and assumed it was equivalent to bearings-y in the following image.

I pretty much want all that info from the image pasted above, so I may have to reexplore the APIs tonight and retrieve the correct info. If there's a guide visually on what the API retrieves that would be helpful, if not I can figure it out

from ttf-parser.

Thanks, I'll play around with the APIs tonight. Closing this issue.
