The attached ZIP contains 3 fonts. The digit in the file name represents the average stem thickness of the glyphs. When I run this command `psstemhist -a stem_*.otf` on each...
Is it possible to autohint only when vstem or hstem command is not already present?
It would be quite useful to have the results of `psstemhist` available to Python scripting. I have made some headway into a script (which I hoped to use to apply...
Needed for hinting variable fonts where overlaps are kept.
When running `psstemhist` on a UFO with overlapping contours in the default layer and no processed layer present, the results created are not useful – see attached text files for...
Is there any way that this [ACHintError](https://github.com/adobe-type-tools/psautohint/blob/71bae7b8e3b212ce1e422c6c0bf6bdd3d50f285c/python/psautohint/autohint.py#L582) could be more verbose as to what is causing hinting to fail? Working on a family of four widths and only for one...
I'm a bit mystified by this. Family information is already present in the PS private dictionary and the references to the reference stop at https://github.com/adobe-type-tools/psautohint/blob/8d3738b986a31e7fa17dc26f2e1db80895eab74a/python/psautohint/autohint.py#L585... What's it good for?
the `% ?? ??` after each hint (e.g:`435 66 ry % 20 7`).
The (modern) Windows CFF renderer in e.g. DirectWrite seems to take CFF hints very seriously and will shuffle vertical stems around as if in a GDI environment. To stop it...
Some parts of the autohinter behave different based on glyph names, but this assumes glyphs are always named after a specific name list which might not always be true. We...
