For example, in the supplied dictionary there is already a glyph for
`Iron'; this is OK because there are no words which start `lron'.

For example `yw' is rendered with the top right corner of the `y' and
the top left corner of the `w' overlapping. This is dealt with by

uses for recognising the text.

to my server so that they can be checked by me and shared with other
