<p><small><li>The non-slanted PostScript font definition
|
|
files have been regenerated to include left and right italic
|
|
correction values. Applying those to a glyph (this is,
|
|
prepending the glyph with ‘\,’ and appending
|
|
‘\/’ to the glyph) sets the glyph width to the
|
|
real value given by the horizontal bounding box values.
|
|
Without those escapes, the advance width for the particular
|
|
glyph is used (which can differ considerably).</small></p>

<p style="margin-top: 1em"><small>Most users will neither
|
|
need this feature nor notice a difference in existing

|
documents (provided \, and \/ is used as advertised, namely

for italic fonts only); its main goal is to improve image
|
|
generation with grohtml.</small></p>
