Description

An example where the Romanized interlinear annotation has descenders would be helpful for implementers. Do the descenders metrics descend down into the ruby base area?

(We may need to define what is the "ruby base area". Is it character frame, character face, or the actual outline of the base characters?)

Research direction

Start with the linked character frame and letter face definitions, then review the surrounding guidance on Romanized interlinear annotations and ruby layout. Add a concrete example containing descenders and document whether their metrics enter the ruby base area, including a precise definition of that area.
