+ [b]Note:[/b] Since kerning, advance and subpixel positioning are taken into account by [method get_string_size], using separate [method get_string_size] calls on substrings of a string then adding the results together will return a different result compared to using a single [method get_string_size] call on the full string.
[b]Note:[/b] Real height of the string is context-dependent and can be significantly different from the value returned by [method get_height].
