`int` | `getDescender()` Returns the descender value of the font.
`int` | `getFlags()` Returns the flags for the font.
`int[]` | `getFontBBox()` Returns the font's bounding box.
`int` | `getItalicAngle()` Returns the italic angle for the font.
`int` | `getStemV()` Returns the vertical stem width for the font.
`boolean` | `isEmbeddable()` Indicates if this font may be embedded.
`boolean` | `isSubsetEmbedded()` Indicates whether this font is subset embedded.
`boolean` | `isSymbolicFont()` Indicates whether the font is a symbolic font.
