Glyph Advances and Glyph Positions

Hello guys! I been curious about these concepts and I did a search on the web. I found this:

But still dont get it…I understand the “Glyph Advances” concept but still dont understand the “Glyph Positions”.

Those chars had the same glyph position? is the baseline? If thats correct…then the glyph position its something like “y-axis coord”?

Im trying to understand better this method (I am using it to calculate text distances in differents fonts):

Thanks :slight_smile:
