Expose font name & provided variants/features on the Typeface class

Typeface doesn't expose any information about whats inside the font.
Typeface should be extended to expose the font name, and any/all capabilities the font provides.
I'm thinking an API a bit like this could work nicely.
var typeface = reader.Read(stream);
var raterizer = new GlyphRasterizer(target);
if(typeface.KerningAvalible)
{
var options = new RendererOptions(){
Size = 30,
Resolution = 72 // possibly should just be a sensible default inside the renderer???
ApplyKerning = true // should this be opt-in or out?
};
var renderer = new Renderer(typeface, raterizer, options)
renderer.Render(10, 20, "Hello\nWorld"); // render across 2 lines with kerning applied
}
if(typeface.Weights.Contains(FontWeights.Bold))
{
var options = new RendererOptions(){
Size = 30,
Resolution = 72 // possibly should just be a sensible default inside the renderer???
Weight = FontWeights.Bold
};
var renderer = new Renderer(typeface, raterizer, options)
renderer.Render(10, 20, "Hello World"); //will render in Bold if availible otherwise Regular
}
