glyph it is completely destroyed

est · October 7, 2019, 4:09pm

I installed a trial version,
And I’m having a problem.
I insert glyphs into the software, and when I reduce the glyph it is completely destroyed
I’m attaching screen capture.
Is there a solution before I buy?

I’ll be happy to respond quickly

Before I reduced the size

After reducing the size

Thanks!

Before resizing, try reducing the number of nodes. Right-click, Optimize.

You can see the number of contours and nodes in the status toolbar at the bottom.

I did as you say, but there is still a problem

Contours consist of nodes that have to be rounded integers, so you will get such issues if the outline becomes too small.

So what can I do?

You could increase the global “units per em”, so tou can store more details.
