/**
 * A class holding helper functions for determining

 * --------------+------------------<maxAscent
 *               |          |
 *               <-------> (right bearing)
 *               <-> (left bearing)
 * char ascent>___          |
 *               ^   oooo   |  oooo
 *   origin>____ |  oo  oo  | oo  oo
 *              \|  oo  oo  | oo  oo
 * --------------+---ooooo--|--oooo-<baseline
 *               |      oo  |
 * char          |  oo  oo  |
 * descent>______|   oooo   |
 *               <-  width ->
 * --------------+----------+-------<maxDescent
 *
 * Caution: All char_type and docstring arguments of any method of this class
 * are no UCS4 chars or strings if the font is a symbol font. They simply
 * denote the code points of the font instead. You have to keep this in mind
 * when you implement the methods in a frontend. You must not pass these
 * parameters to a unicode conversion function in particular.
