            <p><b>text layout</b><br>
            The library doesn't support text layout operations.
            Sophisticated features like glyph substitution, positioning
            (kerning), justification, bi-directional ordering, etc.m are not
            part of a <em>font service</em> in itself.  They must be handled
            one level higher.</p>
