An easier way to get at the character glyph metrics is like this:

  M-: (font-get-glyphs (font-at 1) 1 2) RET

This should show the glyph metrics of the font glyph used to display
the character at buffer position 1.  (Change 1 to any other buffer
position to report on a character there, and then change 2 to 1 more
than that position, for example 100 and 101 for the character at
buffer position 100.)

I'm mostly interested in the WIDTH element (the 5th element) of the
result, but maybe others will also show something important.  It would
be also interesting to compare this with a font that is displayed
"normally".

Thanks.
