45    * @description:
46    *   This section contains various functions used to perform so-called
47    *   `incremental' glyph loading.  This is a mode where all glyphs loaded
48    *   from a given @FT_Face are provided by the client application,
49    *
50    *   Apart from that, all other tables are loaded normally from the font
51    *   file.  This mode is useful when FreeType is used within another
52    *   engine, e.g., a PostScript Imaging Processor.
53    *
54    *   To enable this mode, you must use @FT_Open_Face, passing an
55    *   @FT_Parameter with the @FT_PARAM_TAG_INCREMENTAL tag and an
56    *   @FT_Incremental_Interface value.  See the comments for
57    *   @FT_Incremental_InterfaceRec for an example.
