+=head1 NAME
+
+Font::TTF::Vmtx - Vertical Metrics
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+Contains the advance height and top side bearing for each glyph. Given the
+compressability of the data onto disk, this table uses information from
+other tables, and thus must do part of its output during the output of
+other tables
+
+=head1 INSTANCE VARIABLES
+
+The vertical metrics are kept in two arrays by glyph id. The variable names
+do not start with a space
+
+=over 4
+
+=item advance
+
+An array containing the advance height for each glyph
+
+=item top
+
+An array containing the top side bearing for each glyph
