Deformed glyphs

[greegus]

Some glyphs have been parsed with misplaced point at the start/end of the bezier curve, and so the glyph appears to be deformed. This mostly occurs when the closing point is on the curve (not in the corner) typically on O, or 0 glyphs, but also some others (depending on the font).

Here is an example of such misplacement within O glyph in Futura Condensed ExtraBold font. The character on the left is outlined in Adobe Illustrator. On the right there is this character processed by opentype.js using Glyph Inspector (http://opentype.js.org/glyph-inspector.html) with same font loaded.

Here's a fairly rough patch I wrote to fix this, since I found similar problems with a lot of different fonts and it was driving me crazy.

Thanks @greegus and @cdave1,
which version of Futura Condensed ExtraBold are you using ? I can't reproduce the problem with version 001.003 in OTF.

@fpirsch I'm using 006.000 TrueType

Ah OK I see it now. Thanks @greegus !

I can't find the exact Futura version cited before, any link or maybe another font with the same problem?
