Hi,

I am working on a project that involves writing math formulas.:

2 * x^2 + sqrt(3)
---------------------  + aB
            3

note that the above is only to explain, what I mean by math formulas.

In my project, I have a object type that handles letters. Because letters must be aligned to special math symbols I need to know the ascent and descent of the character.

But maybe, I have now found a way to do this, although it is not tested yet.

I hope that the function:

ATSUGetUnjustifiedBounds

will help me.

To clarify this and my original question: It is easy to find infomation about how to get a fonts ascent and descent, but I cant find any info about getting ascent/descent fot individual glyph


What exactly are you trying to accomplish? In other words, what are you using this information for? Because there doesn't seem to be a way to do this easily / directly for individual glyphs, the best way forward likely depends heavily on your ultimate goal.
