--- Comment #2 from KUBOTA Yuji <kubota.yuji at lab.ntt.co.jp> ---
I reviewed this patch. This looks good to me.

Bug 1435 miscalculates the *bold* font metrics, i.e., ascent, descent, leading
and max advance. OpenJDK need not calculate the font metrics based on glyph
shape when people make font thick.

OpenJDK calculates the font metrics by sun.font.FreetypeFontScaler which is
based on FreeType. FreeType calculates the font metrics based on Font Face. And
Font Face is *NOT* affected whether the font was thick or not. So the function
should calculate based on Font Face to return accurate metrics.


Thanks,
KUBOTA Yuji
