This table contains information that describes the glyphs in the font in the TrueType outline format. Information regarding the rasterizer scaler refers to the TrueType rasterizer.

For details regarding scaling, grid-fitting and rasterization of TrueType outlines, see the TrueType Fundamentals chapter. The 'glyf' table is comprised of a list of glyph data blocks, each of which provides the description for a single glyph. Glyphs are referenced by identifiers glyph IDs , which are sequential integers beginning at zero.

The total number of glyphs is specified by the numGlyphs field in the 'maxp' table. The 'glyf' table does not include any overall table header or records providing offsets to glyph data blocks. Rather, the 'loca' table provides an array of offsets, indexed by glyph IDs, which provide the location of each glyph data block within the 'glyf' table. Note that the 'glyf' table must always be used in conjunction with the 'loca' and 'maxp' tables. The size of each glyph data block is inferred from the difference between two consecutive offsets in the 'loca' table with one extra offset provided to give the size of the last glyph data block.

As a result of the 'loca' format, glyph data blocks within the 'glyf' table must be in glyph ID order. Note that the bounding rectangle from each character is defined as the rectangle with a lower left corner of xMin, yMin and an upper right corner of xMax, yMax. These values are obtained directly from the point coordinate data for the glyph, comparing all on-curve and off-curve points. Phantom points computed by the rasterizer are not relevant.

Note that the bounding box defined by control points is guaranteed to contain the outline, but might not be tight to the outline. Note: The scaler will perform better if the glyph coordinates have been created such that the xMin is equal to the lsb.

For example, if the lsb is , then xMin for the glyph should be If the lsb is then the xMin should be If the lsb is 0 then xMin is 0. If all glyphs are done like this, set bit 1 of flags field in the 'head' table. Note: The glyph descriptions do not include side bearing information. Left side bearings are provided in the 'hmtx' table , and right side bearings are inferred from the advance width also provided in the 'hmtx' table and the bounding box coordinates provided in the 'glyf' table.

For vertical layout, top side bearings are provided in the 'vmtx' table , and bottom side bearings are inferred. See the chapter Instructing TrueType Glyphs for more background on phantom points. This is the table information needed if numberOfContours is greater than or equal to zero, that is, a glyph is not a composite.

Note that point numbers are base-zero indices that are numbered sequentially across all of the contours for a glyph; that is, the first point number of each contour except the first is one greater than the last point number of the preceding contour. Note: In the 'glyf' table, the position of a point is not stored in absolute terms but as a vector relative to the previous point.

The delta-x and delta-y vectors represent these often small changes in position. Coordinate values are in font design units, as defined by the unitsPerEm field in the 'head' table. Note that smaller unitsPerEm values will make it more likely that delta-x and delta-y values can fit in a smaller representation 8-bit rather than bit , though with a trade-off in the level or precision that can be used for describing an outline.

Each element in the flags array is a single byte, each of which has multiple flag bits with distinct meanings, as shown below. In logical terms, there is one flag byte element, one x-coordinate, and one y-coordinate for each point. The number of points is determined by the last entry in the endPtsOfContours array. Note, however, that the flag byte elements and the coordinate arrays use packed representations. In particular, if a logical sequence of flag elements or sequence of x- or y-coordinates is repeated, then the actual flag byte element or coordinate value can be given in a single entry, with special flags used to indicate that this value is repeated for subsequent logical entries.

The actual stored size of the flags or coordinate arrays must be determined by parsing the flags array entries. See the flag descriptions below for details. A non-zero-fill algorithm is needed to avoid dropouts when contours overlap. Implementations that always use a non-zero-fill algorithm will ignore this flag.

Note that some implementations might check this flag specifically in non-variable fonts, but always use a non-zero-fill algorithm for variable fonts.

This flag can be used in order to provide broad interoperability of fonts — particularly non-variable fonts — when glyphs have overlapping contours.
