When using bigger font size, some glyphs that has the vector data at the outside of the descender value in the hhea/vhea table in TTF, is cut-off.

I saw this issue on gedit with IPAPGothic font:

I suppose there may be any way of fixing this issue on both Pango or font side though, it works fine on Windows say, I believe Pango also has the possibilities to get this fixed in.

That's a GTK+ issue.

Hello Akira,

what GTK+ version are you using?
Comment 3 Behdad Esfahbod 2010-01-20 21:01:51 UTC 
The version doesn't matter.  We know we don't redraw the neighboring lines expose.

It's 2.18.6.

Apparently the size calculation is incorrect.

Thank you Akira.
Behdad, maybe the version doesn't matter for this bug, but helps to keep track of the current bugs and make bugzilla queries more useful ( http://live.gnome.org/GTK%2B/BugzillaLinks )

I believe this should be fixed in 3.13
