I arranged Subtable_hyphen at the top so that it appears by default when selecting the Pair Adjustment lookup, because pairs with hyphen are often problematic when generating kerning values with autokern.
Adding a New Subtable for Alternative Fractions
Click on the gears icon to open the Subtable manager, where one can add or sort subtables. I added Subtable_afrc for a simple demonstration.
Editing the Pair Adjustment Lookup
- Close the subtable manager and open the Pair Adjustment lookup in the code editor.
- Search for "afrc" to find any pairs using alternative fractions.
- Select the lookup pairs and cut them to the clipboard
- Go to the end of the lookup and paste them into the new subtable
Close the Pair Adjustment lookup and select Subtable_afrc to inspect those pairs. Use the shortcuts Left/Right cursor, Shift+Left/Right cursor, or Ctrl+Left/Right cursor to adjust the selected kerning pair’s value by 10, 100, or 1 funit respectively.
Note that actions like autokern or trim work on the entire lookup, not just on the selected subtable.
