Pali Typeface

Version 3.00 improved some ogonek contours, added four glyphs with ogonek for Nordic, and added some more kerning pairs. Version 2.92 did not fix all of the bugs :frowning: I had to fix some more for version 3.00.

  1. Microsign µ was included in the Greek alpha kerning class instead of Greek mu
  2. Discretionary ligature st in italics had the wrong right side-bearing
  3. Standard ligatures tt, tty, fty, ttr, ty did not match in all type styles
  4. Standard ligatures were missing ky ligature
  5. I added kerning pairs for Italic Vb, Wb, Yb, etc., which clash badly without positive kerning. Though they are pairs that are unlikely to be used in practice.
  6. Lowercase y. clashes with comma, so I separate that from the y_lc kerning class
  7. I added back Unicode spaces and some composite glyphs to the Web and WOFF versions, since they add very little to the file size.
  8. I ran Autokern and rechecked the kerning on all pairs.

How long does it take to make a font?
