- lineFragmentRectForGlyphAtIndex:effectiveRange: in combination with -locationOfGlyphAtIndex: this is better and does give me the point at which the original glyph would be drawn. However, there seems to be no way to then offset this for the new character. If I call NSString's -sizeWithAttributes: on the control character I'm going to draw, I get padding above and below the character in that method and cannot find a way to offset that so that it will then get drawn at the right location.


The key methods here are - lineFragmentRectForGlyphAtIndex:effectiveRange:, - lineFragmentUsedRectForGlyphAtIndex:, -locationOfGlyphAtIndex:, and NSTypesetter's -baselineOffsetInLayoutManager:glyphIndex:. It's a little difficult for me to describe all of the relationships between these measurements without a diagram, but you should be able to try them out and see how they differ in all of the various cases you're interested in--paragraph spacing, line spacing, line height multiple, etc. The line fragment rect is the rect within which the line was laid out. The used rect is the rect within that actually taken up by the text, including some forms of padding. The baseline offset is the distance from the bottom of the line fragment rect to the baseline for a particular glyph.
