FontGetAscent Method

The face's ascender is the vertical distance from the baseline to the topmost point of any glyph in the face. This field's value is a positive number, expressed in the glyph coordinate system. For all font types except Type 3, the units of glyph space are one-thousandth of a unit of text space. Some font designs use a value different from 'bbox.yMax'.
