Just resending - I think this may have 'fallen through the crack' when you were attending a course in mid-August.

Hi,

Here are a few more problematic fonts:

doesn't load:
http://ftp-archive.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD-Archive/ports/distfiles/zh-wangttf/WCL-02.ttf


(Earlier versions of this do, so it is a case of caullous modifications).

Three fonts which seems to only work correctly at specific sizes: (try ftview
and go up and down in size):

Shipped with Mac OS X:
  Library/Fonts/AppleMyungjo.ttf

These are reference fonts from the HK government:
http://www.ogcio.gov.hk/tc/business/tech_promotion/ccli/terms/doc/HKSCSIIC.TTF
http://www.ogcio.gov.hk/tc/business/tech_promotion/ccli/terms/doc/IICore.TTF

The last two don't really work correctly for every glyph even at the designed
sizes. Some glyphs look broken even at the designed sizes.

Probably bad hinting/bitmap for these 3, but since they are all "official" in
some way, it is probably quite certain that they work with some other font
rendering library than freetype.
