[ft-devel] Moving advance width in references with instructions

[Andrey V. Panov]

The attached screenshots display rendering of "A" and Cyrillic A of 
ftp://ftp.dvo.ru/pub/Font/istok/Istok-Regular.ed.ttf.bz2 by freetype 2.3.9 at 
18 ppem using fontforge's grid fitting. The advance point of "A" is moved 
against rightmost point on its contour.  Since Cyrillic A is reference to "A" 
it should be rendered identically. But the  advance point Cyrillic A does not 
moved so its contour exceeds glyph width. The similar issue occures with "e" 
and Cyrillic e at 12 ppem. 

It looks like a bug in freetype.
