Horizontal clipping

Post by xerrf »

Hello, I am encountering a clipping problem with a font that I'm working on. It is cutting off some of the right side of each glyph in preview mode and as exported OTFs. This is how the glyph is defined:
A-inside.PNG
A-inside.PNG (38.83 KiB) Viewed 1783 times
A-want.PNG
A-want.PNG (1.88 KiB) Viewed 1783 times
But this is how it appears in the preview window:
A-is.PNG
A-is.PNG (2.79 KiB) Viewed 1783 times
Anybody know if I am missing a setting? I've made other fonts with this software and haven't encountered this before. I don't remember setting anything special execpt for the units per em (2048), x-height, and cap-height.

Any insight is appreciated!

Try setting the left side-bearing at x-0 and see if that helps. The offset is currently -100.
