Re: I'm freaking out

It depends on the shaping engine and the rareness and complexity of your OpenType layout features.

In general, the font is fine, if it works in your web browser.

Re: Help with variable font, kerning disruption

I have no idea what is going on.

A sample project with a couple of characters that illustrates the problem would help.

Re: Serif / Sans listed incorrectly

Yes, I found that one, but it's not terribly helpful. Perhaps if there was a bold column, and a few more for advanced categorization columns? I still haven't found the feature to enable the Panose column, so I guess it's gone now?? Yes, it is gone. It is too hard to sort by Panose, as it is actuall...

Re: Serif / Sans listed incorrectly

EDIT: Oh, and I don't care who you are, Century Gothic has exactly zero serif's in it. ;) Yes, that is horrible. I can't believe they put that false information in the font file. That font is made by Monotype, so blame them! The Panose information is available through the Information panel. Also no...

Re: Auto-update borks Maintype 12

I am sorry to hear you have issues with the latest update. Since this is no longer a coincidence, we do suspect some issue within the software. I hope we can find a solution soon, but right now we are not able to reproduce the problem, so it might take some time.

Re: Serif / Sans listed incorrectly

You can make groups to categorize your fonts, but I also suggest you take a look at Tags. See the Quick Start Tutorial . Custom views are also very useful, but that functionality is not available in the free edition. The Serif/ Sans Serif information is stored in the fonts, and font designers do mak...

Re: Problem with left bearing at 0 fixed point.

I understand this might have worked in an earlier release, but with recent improvements, some things just work a little different.

Would auto attach with a center anchor work?

Re: Ligatures Transparent Overlapping

Actually the topic should have been posted in the FontCreator forums, as the only license I see is a FontCreator one. I will move the topic from Scanahand support to the correct forum.

Re: Ligatures Transparent Overlapping

FontCreator can detect contours with a wrong direction. Click the Correct contour directions button on the Validation panel to correct the direction of all misoriented contours or select Direction from the Edit menu to change the direction of the selected contour(s).

Re: Fonts stuck

Active fonts with a red indicator are fonts that are not permanently installed, but temporary loaded by external software.

To get rid of them, you need to find out which software loads the fonts. Then either find a setting to stop it, or remove the external software from your computer.
