I think I'm okay without further help, because it just seems to be an issue with Pages.

As for the Nutso fraction: I'm aware of it; I'm just not sure how to edit things so that I can produce mixed numbers. Maybe I'll figure that out one day, though.

Re: Different Kerning in Different Softwares

Here it is! How it works: 1 Type-in 'Fr' to enter 'fraction mode.' 2 Type-in numerator (if applicable) 3 To produce a divisor, type-in 'Dx' where x=number of digits in numerator/denominator [whichever is greater]; type 'D0' if not applicable. 4 Type-in '/Fr' to exit fraction mode. If you look in the...

Re: Different Kerning in Different Softwares

Update: I tried the typeface on my older iPad, and it worked (the version of pages is older, too).

Very interesting. . .

Re: Different Kerning in Different Softwares

There are several, apps in the regular App Store that install fonts. I use a paid app called anyfonts, but they might have something for free. Here's a video for Anyfont: http://youtu.be/CS36lw5braE I was already able to try implementing the calt feature, and the typeface renders in this same fashio...

Different Kerning in Different Softwares

I created a vertical fraction font, wherein users type in sequences of letters in order to activate different alternates. I achieved this by setting up several chaining context lookups. I activated 'kerning' in Microsoft Word, and the typeface looks good. However, when I tested the font in iPad page...

Re: Fraction Divisor

Seeing your font helped me get an idea of what I need to do in order to create my font as I want it. Yet, perhaps I should have been more specific in describing my goal. I want to enable users to type in a numerator, then the divisor, then the denominator. I also want to map these characters to lowe...

I am interested in creating a stacked fraction font. I successfully generated the pre-sets that are produced when the glyph transformation script is ran, but I do not see a divisor. I tried to create my own by setting the bearings to negative numbers. When I reviewed the font, it displayed correctly...
