Contour connection issues

Open tamcy opened this issue 1 year ago • 9 comments

Can't believe I missed such frequently used character the last time when I checked the contour issues of glyphs with a 辶 in it.

Happens in uni9059-HK, the EL master: image

There are hundreds of problems like this and they don't really need new issues. We could have a single issue for these. I've fixed a ton so far, but I'm not sure it's really worth documenting every single one.

Spot a rather weird connection issue in the ExtraLight master of the following glyphs:

㫆 uni3AC6-CN
㫉 uni3AC9-CN 
㫊 uni3ACA-CN
㫋 uni3ACB-CN
㫍 uni3ACD-CN
斻 uni65BB-CN
旀 uni65C0-CN
旈 uni65C8-CN
旌 uni65CC-CN
旐 uni65D0-CN
旑 uni65D1-CN
旓 uni65D3-CN
旛 uni65D9-CN

Apparantly the 𠃌 components in the above glyphs are not connecting well: image

But I suspect the cause is that the 方 component was inadvertently rotated counterclockwise by the designer (and copy and pasted to other glyphs), because the horizontal strokes are also slightly slanted, offseted by 1 pixel: image

Not really a contour connection issue, but a direction one.

  • uni71DB-CN 燛
  • uni81E6-CN 臦

In this two glyphs, the contour direction of the flipped-臣 component is incorrect. FWIW, there are two other glyphs, uni71DB-TW and uni81E9-JP, contains a flipped-臣 component but with the correct direction.

Yes, those got rotated a tiny bit for no good reason. They aren't the only components like that. I already fixed a bunch of others with bad rotation or skew values.

Vertical stroke overshoot in uni5801-JP:

Looks like the contour direction of the top horizontal bar in uni21B8 (↸) isn't correct. The arrow is fine. Also applies to Serif.

In v2.005, items in my first 3 reports are missed. Here's a summary on the connection issues:
