Re: [FIXED] From some characters not make composite characters

As I said earlier, change the position of the anchor on the k, not on the accent, and why are you using doubleacute.comb for k cedilla?

Re: [FIXED] From some characters not make composite characters

If k cedilla (comma) is composed with the Complete Composites method, the following code will be used: <Composite><!-- k cedilla (comma) --> <GlyphMapping>311</GlyphMapping> <Member id="1"> <GlyphMapping>107</GlyphMapping> <UseMetrics>TRUE</UseMetrics> </Member> <Member id="2"> <...

Re: [FIXED] From some characters not make composite characters

You need to edit the anchor position on the h, not on the caron accent.

Re: [FIXED] From some characters not make composite characters

I am using Vivaldi, which is also Chrome-based.

Edit: The download page now shows the 64-bit version as the default.

Re: [FIXED] From some characters not make composite characters

I noticed that L middledot only composes with CompleteComposites, not with Auto or Anchor-based composition. Another small point, the button on the download page default to downloading the 32-bit version, but you recommend installing the 64-bit version of the user's OS supports it. Wouldn't it make ...

Re: [FIXED] From some characters not make composite characters

You can apply Complete Composites (Auto) to selected glyphs if you wish to avoid overriding existing composites with new versions. Perfection is impossible because every font design is unique. The feature may be nearly perfect on standard Serif or Sans Serif fonts, but script fonts will often need a...

Re: Some composite characters not the same

Auto works for me, but Complete Composites does not.

Re: Some composite characters not the same

What is your FontCreator version?

Which method are you using to create Composites? Auto, Anchor-based, Composite Data?

Re: Sort out only system fonts?

System Fonts are critical to Windows, and should not be removed.

Re: Characters with holes will be filled when I import to Fontcreator

Try reversing the contour direction on the inner contour, or use the Validation tool.

Re: From some characters not make composite characters

There may be a bug here. Using CompositeData also fails. The definition is present in CompositeData.xml and the period centre glyph exists in my test font. This works in FontCreator 14. <Composite><!-- L Middle Dot --> <GlyphMapping>319</GlyphMapping> <Member id="1"> <GlyphMapping>76</Glyp...

Re: How to specify the shortcut keys for the alignment and distribution operations

Keyboard Shortcuts are almost all assigned already. They are hard to remember, and making them customisable is a major undertaking. Access keys are more flexible, and have an onscreen reminder when opening the context menu. Still, it is time-consuming to make sure that there are no conflicts, and t...

It looks like it has been removed to make space for many new options. I guess we have to use the Align and Distribute Toolbar now.

Re: Is it possible to show everything WITHOUT a certain tag?

I don't see any way to exclude fonts from a view by tag.

Does it help to list them by categorisation, Foundry?

The fonts on the CD may all share the same Foundry name.
