Copying Anchors

Post by PJMiller »

It would be nice if there was an option (probably an extra checkbox) to copy the anchors along with the other parameters of a glyph when using 'Paste Special' for the duplication of glyphs within the same font.

I understand that it would probably be very difficult if not impossible to copy anchors between different fonts because the destination font probably won't have the same tables set up to use the anchors and even if it did the anchors would probably have different names. It would be very complicated.

However within the same font it should be simple to duplicate a set of anchors using 'Paste Special', shouldn't it ?
