Sorry, I could not understand it from your message, what is
your scenario? You want to do something like OCR?

You can get the maximum glyph index from FT_Face->num_glyphs.
Scanning like

        for ( gid = 0; gid < face->num_glyphs; gid ++ )
        {
                /* blah blah blah */
        }

is very popular in various softwares using FT2.
