- You don't say what format your metric files are. If they are standard
- Adobe Font Metric (AFM) files then all the characters in the font will
- have their font metrics following the "StartCharMetrics" tag. Any
- "composed" characters metrics can be derived from the information
- following the "StartComposites" tag.

- If you're dealing with some extract format then ???
