Looking at this font in gimp, it seems to "fix" the layout on the fly using the render bounds. That's not something glyph-brush-layout can do so easily as we calculate all glyph positions without outlining the glyphs.

This does also suggest that using line_gap as top-padding isn't correct :disappointed:
A workaround is to give the sections with this font some extra margin at the top.
However, depending on the to_vertex
fn implementation, glyph bound clipping may need to also be disabled. (This is not specified by glyph-brush itself, though the opengl example does clip glyphs.
https://github.com/alexheretic/ab-glyph/issues/50 font CooperHewitt-Book.otf glyphs clip outside of font ascender/descender vbounds. This means the top line (for default layout) glyphs may clip too.
This can be fixed by using the font
line_gap
as top-padding for the first line, essentially shifting down the glyphs of all fonts with non-zeroline_gap
values.I'm unsure if this is the "correct" thing to do though. It's possible the font itself is wrong instead?
