Hi there
After I exported my font and now working on the InDesign I'm facing an issue with some letters as I noticed in larger words some of the connections have gaps not sure why.

Hi,
This is easy to solve, the problem because the outline direction...
1- select all glyphs..ctrl+A
2- go to transform window
3- select - fix contour direction
4 O.K
5- export or install the font after deleting the older one.

Hi Husham, I tried to follow the steps but I couldn't find (Fix contour direction)

Font validation features are not available in the home edition, see the FontCreator – Comparison Chart.

You can still manually fix the contour direction of your outlines, but it is more time-consuming.

Thank you Erwin for letting me know, most probably I will fix it manually although it’s not the best option as I’m running out of time.

Thank you very much that was very helpful! I fixed all of them but now how can I delete the older font before exporting the new one?

Go to C: partition> Windows> font folder> choose the older font> right click> delete
