(if a screenshot helps:

the middle bar is the baseline, the top squares snap properly, the bottom ones a shifted up (not just their top points, but the bleeding is less visible at the bottom). All of the points under the baseline looks shifted up by the same amount.

Hi,

I'm seeing something weird in the ouline given out by freetype (2.5), when hinting is disabled (or set to the TTF's own & there's none), the geometry below the baseline seems to be shifted up by a tiny fraction.

My test is a font of 2048 units/EM, used at height 16, so that 128 units=1 pixel on-screen.
Above the baseline everything is perfect, but anything below is moved up by a fraction of a pixel, possibly around 8 units.

I haven't found anything that seemed related in the sources, but I'm not familiar with them at all. Does this ring any bell?

Thanks
