I do have some notes (as a 'fair usage quote') on the 5.8.5 version of that .jar file, attached.
But I haven't done a single bit of work to compare the information included with that described in the link included above.
It looks to me, in general, that if we had JBpatch working for 5.8.x it would be fairly easy to make these hardcoded margins read instead from a config file - similar to the FONT_RAMP (un-documented) feature.
PS: The 5.8.* firmware is running hardware assisted Java-8
In case that makes any difference.
Note: It has been 20 years since I wrote anything in Java, so the above is about all I can say about the subject. We need a new mind(s) familar with Java-Today for this work.
