I'm just saying that determining what should happen in text when multiple fonts of multiple scripts of multiple sizes are mixed requires some kind of algorithm to figure out what should happen if baseline adjustment or head-line alignment is to be reliably implemented. This suggests some kind of notion of leading or dominant font to which others align. I've no idea how that would work. I just make the fonts. But in order to implement font data related to these sorts of questions, I need a clear spec, which we don't really have in the OTL BASE table. JH
