This transformation scales the glyph horizontally, reduces the stroke weight, and scales the glyph vertically to compensate for the resulting reduction in the glyph height. I designed it to maintain the glyph height for the template font (Bitstream Vera), and to reduce the vertical stroke weight from 202 funits to 82. This results in a Panose Classification of Thin. See Dave Crosby’s Panose Tutorial for an explanation of the Weight Ratio.
For different fonts, you will have to adjust the values both for scaling, and for reducing the stroke weight.
As with the previous transformations, copy the selected glyphs that you are going to transform so that you can paste and undo/redo the paste operation to try different values until you get the ideal result.
