It is a homework, I’m still studying and need finish it today night. If you have some time to help me, I will thank you in advanced.

PD: Any comment, help is valid! :wink:

There’s not much that needs to be added to the tutorial thread — everything you need is there already I think — its just a matter of using the correct syntax and running the compiler.

If you attach your script here, I may be able to spot any syntax errors. Just rename it with a *.txt extension.

I was trying in Windows 7 but the file otcom.exe fails to open (it work in windows xp only?, I just say)!
For this case i was looking for new simple steps tu enable this features in the fonts
created with Font Creator.

Many thanks Bhikkhu Pesala!

OTComp.exe was apparently created in 2002/3 long before Windows 7. I suspect that it will still run in compatibility mode. Isn’t there a command window option in Win 7? Even in WinXP OTComp has to be run in a DOS box.

FontCreator 7 now supports OpenType layout features, using scripts very similar to those used by the OpenType compiler.
