A little more followup. The gtk() device uses gdk_string_width to find the character extents. That seems undocumented anywhere in the gtk+ sources. It is returning the maximal descent for the font for all input strings on my system.

Without any documentation I do not even know if it is a gdk bug (although I suspect it is or was). The gdk docs in gtk+ seem seriously incomplete. -- Brian D. Ripley,...
