No, I don't think I found some bugs. My questions are about FreeType use.
As long as the documentation describes only the less efficient way of FreeType 
use,
I have no other choice than trying myself and asking questions.

Ah, BTW, I have a library architecture observation/note:

The structures FTC_ScalerRec and FTC_ImageType are in practice the same 
structure,
described in some different way. Then why not to join them (add a field .flags 
to FTC_ScalerRec)?

The same applies for the pairs of functions 
FTC_ImageCache_Lookup/FTC_ImageCache_LookupScaler and
FTC_SBitCache_Lookup/FTC_SBitCache_LookupScaler.

One of the pair is actually redundant.

And last: In the documentation, I read that "We hope to also provide a kerning 
cache in the near future."
Is these plans still alive? 

Best Regards.
