Hi,
I have read:
TrueType Reference Manual:
http://developer.apple.com/textfonts/TTRefMan/
FontHandling:
http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/FontHandling/FontHandling.pdf
and
About drawing text with Cocoa NSString and NSAtrributedString, etc.
and
"Introduction to Quartz 2D Porgramming Guide"
but with no luck.
I have also seached the internet for "descent for glyphs"
but with no luck.
To clarify this and my original question: It is easy to find
infomation about how to get a fonts ascent and descent, but I cant
find any info about getting ascent/descent fot individual glyphs.

I have looked in several document sets -- both cocoa and carbon,
but I did not have any luck.
Hope someone can help,
What specific documentation did you read? What did you not
understand about it? What have you tried on your own?
