Appends utf8 text, converting it to glyphs and connecting it as specified by rules. You cannot expect anything about language-specific typesetting rules, so if the given script does not use trivial placement, you should better avoid this

Amount of white space to add between glyphs connected by an advance rule. It is specified in font units (i.e. 12 for 12pt font is the width of an em square). If glyph is manually positioned, letterspace value will be ignored. Letterspace will be added immediately before placing a new glyph FIXME: what does the last sentence mean? (Chema)
