Hi,
I just found the source of my problem with kerning. It indeed happens only in JavaScript.
A few functions use int64_t casts when scaling coordinates from font-space to user-space. This wreaks havoc on Emscripten, because JavaScript doesn't have an integer type big enough to hold a 64-bit integer.
Would it be sufficient to use int32_t in these cases instead? IMO it's not likely that (coordinate * scale) is ever going to be larger than 2 billion. Am I missing something?
Here are the problematic lines:
