We need this character “narrow non-breaking space” for French typography, and for a certain other language, based on French system.
This need comes up again and again in my work-flow. And often it concerns not a technical character but specific sets of rare vowels too.
In the write-up for MainType I read this:
In order to find the right fonts for your needs, the software includes tags, ratings, filter and sort functionality as well as a font information panel that reveals important typographic data.
Sadly, in the help, I cannot find anything about “filter” or “filering”, except the one sentence I quoted above. Even searching the help, nothing.
Please instruct on how to create a filter, based on specific glyph(s).
But I do not care, how the filter works or whether it is about pre-view or somewhere else. I am willing to learn some syntax even. Thank you for any help.
Yes, thank you. I found this feature a while ago, maybe in the forum. This is how I can see the fonts.
Now how can I filter them please? I have 12000 fonts on my machine, and 1719 are marked as “active”. I would need to create a group or a tag or something. I mean a way to store so that I can always access a certain selection; and “containing U+202F” is an example.
Even better: I have hand-crafted several groups like “suitable for language A” and “suitable to make logo for customer B”. That was a lot of work, and only a human can do such groups.
But filtering all fonts according to some technical “element” like containing a certain glyph should be available for automatic handling. Now I would need to filter from those groups:
Only fonts which are in group “suitable for language A” AND containing U+202F.
