Okay, so Bendiness means how much the handles stick out, so that the straight segments are actually curves.
At 0 the handle is on top the anchor while at 200 its completely out ending at the next anchor, right ?
So far i havent noticed any differences, when i change the values. Depends on the font, i guess ?

I still cant figure out what the guides do. How does the position of the guides in the example lead to the lessened height of the text ?
1) You can notice the difference in some pathological cases such as my example, especially on horizontal lines that are close to the envelope.
2) The idea is that there is a strip delimited by two horizontal lines that is mapped between the strokes, by stretching it vertically. The horizontal lines in the sources are mapped to the strokes of the envelope, ane everything inside (and outside) is stretched to match. The guides are just a way to specify these horizontals.
