Cool, but just curiosity, metapost can handle fonts right? How those glyphs don't have this problem? I've read the specification of the type1 fonts, they don't seem to have such weird paths, just some borderlines with different directions.
PostScript paths are more advanced than Metapost's draw objects, but Metapost never sees these paths of font glyphs at all. (well, except via the new primitive 'glyph X of', but that indeed does have this problem.) Best wishes, Taco
