Font Forum

Thank you all for your responses! So I am understanding that when my font is ready, I am to choose an option on exporting that reads, "No" or "Regenerate for release". I am assuming that if I select the right option my glyphs will automatically be named without spaces as is best to use with software...

Hey Y'all!

Is there any advantage to name my glyphs with underscores instead of spaces?

Thanks

Very cool guys!

Thanks Bhikku Pesala, Alfred, and Erwin for the tips!

Has anybody in the FontCreator community successfully entered and got accepted by MyFonts.com? I tried like 3 years ago and got rejected for some good reasons. I would love to hear tips about how to get accepted as they seem to be the cream of the crop in terms of font sales.

Hi all!

I was wondering if anybody knows a quick way to delete kerns that can't possibly occur based on my CALT entries.

There is not much we can improve, so I might be missing something. Please explain how can we show a horizontal movement of less than a pixel? This is the formula to convert a font unit into a pixel unit: PointSize * resolution / ( 72 points per inch * units_per_em ) So basically if you look at some...

But Erwin is a steely eyed superman! He can do anything!!!

Okay, though I have to say, this isn't very convenient. I appreciate the option of temporarily installing the font so I can test it outside of FC, but I'd even more appreciate getting a reliable final result within the program. The preview window in the OTD only gives a rough sketch and isn't very ...

I was in the hospital for a couple days. I didn't much more than make it home after my last email before my heart was giving me issues. My wife brought in my tablet, but gmail isn't set up on it. Aww Mike I'm so sorry. I pray that your stay at the hospital was a productive one and that nothing seri...

Thanks for the info, Mike. I shall leave the OP in your capable hands!

Alfred,

I see you've been hoisted to the title, Top Typographer! Kudos, you deserve it!

Jonne

Alfred was trying to "teach you to fish" versus being paid "to fish for you." For those of us that make money making fonts, we generally shy away from small work because it can be either a labor of love (i.e., it doesn't pay the bills) or the person desiring to pay for something like what I am unde...

Excellent! Thank you so much!

I have a request to make the script selector remember its setting after exiting the OpenType Designer. As of now, when OpenType Designer is closed and reopened, the script changes back to auto.

Thanks and Blessings,

Erwin, I don't understand why I'm unable to kern "2B" in 2410 and yet I am able to in 2408. Also in 2408 I am able to kern a class which contains Greek letters, though it doesn't kern the Greek it is able to kern the other glyphs in that class. This I am unable to do in 2410. I don't understand. Tha...

Erwin,

Nevermind making 2409 available. I've installed 2405 and updated to 2408. Every thing is working except for kerning Greek letters.
