OK, it is a duplicate of #41334 :-)

I'm not sure that it is a duplicate – there are only two vertical points, and the horizontal position change must not exceed a pixel in that case since there is nothing that can accumulate.

Will investigate soon; this looks like a bug.

This is a duplicate of bug 41334. With hinting off you won't see the problem.

Attached a subsetted TrueType font which has for its 'L' glyph a different outline than what Acrobat or Windows shows.

Attached a screenshot what FreeType returns as outline (current trunk version) and Acrobat.

Any idea what is wrong ?
