<p>If the font is tricky and the glyph has been loaded with <a href="ft2-base_interface.html#FT_LOAD_XXX">FT_LOAD_NO_SCALE</a>, the resulting BBox is meaningless. To get reasonable values for the BBox it is necessary to load the glyph at a large ppem value (so that the hinting instructions can properly shift and scale the subglyphs), then extracting the BBox, which can be eventually converted back to font units.</p>

<p>If set, turn pixels on for &lsquo;stubs&rsquo;, otherwise exclude them. Ignored if <a href="ft2-outline_processing.html#FT_OUTLINE_XXX">FT_OUTLINE_IGNORE_DROPOUTS</a> is set. See below for more information.</p>

<p>This flag indicates that the scan-line converter should try to convert this outline to bitmaps with the highest possible quality. It is typically set for small character sizes. Note that this is only a hint that might be completely ignored by a given scan-converter.</p>

<tr><td class="val" id="FT_OUTLINE_SINGLE_PASS">FT_OUTLINE_SINGLE_PASS</td><td class="desc">
<p>This flag is set to force a given scan-converter to only use a single pass over the outline to render a bitmap glyph image. Normally, it is set for very large character sizes. It is only a hint that might be completely ignored by a given scan-converter.</p>

<h4>note</h4>
<p>The flags <a href="ft2-outline_processing.html#FT_OUTLINE_XXX">FT_OUTLINE_IGNORE_DROPOUTS</a>, <a href="ft2-outline_processing.html#FT_OUTLINE_XXX">FT_OUTLINE_SMART_DROPOUTS</a>, and <a href="ft2-outline_processing.html#FT_OUTLINE_XXX">FT_OUTLINE_INCLUDE_STUBS</a> are ignored by the smooth rasterizer.</p>
<p>There exists a second mechanism to pass the drop-out mode to the B/W rasterizer; see the &lsquo;tags&rsquo; field in <a href="ft2-outline_processing.html#FT_Outline">FT_Outline</a>.</p>
<p>Please refer to the description of the &lsquo;SCANTYPE&rsquo; instruction in the OpenType specification (in file &lsquo;ttinst1.doc&rsquo;) how simple drop-outs, smart drop-outs, and stubs are defined.</p>
