v5: - Can cycle through engines in ftview. - Native ClearType fonts can change advance widths via hdmx table.- Tricky fonts have backwards compatibility turned off and are therefore considered "native ClearType" in v38. Fixes DFKai-SB. - Implement vertical hinting flag in GETINFO (derived from FT_LOAD_TARGET_LCD_V).
Known problems: some fonts still change advance widths in backwards compatibility mode. I found Essay text and Times New Roman Italic (e.g. '|' or '}'). No idea why yet.
Aside: http://postimg.org/image/j29o6y5ex/ -- Are the glitchy N, V, W in Verdana Bold known bugs? I also found them in a fresh master checkout.
