Exported font has baseline issues

Open David-Keeffe opened this issue 1 year ago • 4 comments

I added a glyph (/) to an existing TTF font, but after export the existing "space" character has topline/baseline issues. I did not alter "space". Original and exported TTF attached. odd-font.zip

This is what it looks like:

Thank you. I have never seen anything like this before.

Space look as expected in Firefox but I will continue to look for potential problems.

BTW it looks wrong in an exported PDF as well. I'm using the font in a music program called "Finale".

It also goes wrong in LibreOffice, so that suggests one of the dimensions is off. BTW is "space" treated specially?
