There are two cases too: boundary fits one particular string (box

Where does one obtain these values? I see FT_Glyph_Get_CBox() and
assume it corresponds to one of these cases, but I'm not sure which
one.
Tried it - FT_Glyph_Get_CBox() corresponds to the exact fit on the
glyph. So how does one find the
yMax,yMin limits for the font as a whole? If it was just English one
could feed in
an "M" and a "y", or something like that, but for a completely
arbitrary language, where
the identity of the limiting y extent characters is not known ahead of
time (by the programmer, if not
the end user)?
