On the other hand, for "fantasy" class fonts (esp. things like swash capitals or alternate beginning/ending letters), the font designer would have expected the glyphs to overflow the inline boxes, and the page would look horrible if we insist that glyphs be always contained within the inline boxes. Can't have it both ways, I guess. -- cheers, -ambrose Yahoo and Gmail must die. Yes, I use them, but they still must die. PS: Don't trust everything you read in Wikipedia. (Very Important)
