I’ve made some proofs and have gone over them in search of stand-out visual issues which I believe would be worth addressing. Obviously, I am affected by my own experiences...
I'm trying to use [fix-vf-meta](https://github.com/googlefonts/gftools/blob/master/bin/gftools-fix-vf-meta.py) on some variable font TTFs. I'm using this on [a simplified build script for Libre Caslon](https://github.com/thundernixon/Libre-Caslon/commit/d8b39ec9923e40729cb8f3b8ed87d6e0cd85b2db#diff-2a16a4efc5dc106a1a3df65f51a852ce), and trying to move it into a script for...

_Version 3.115 (3.115)_ I'm testing fontVariations in Drawbot, and I have come across a bit of an unexpected warning. This is drawing the result I want, but giving me a...
## Basics Drawbot version: 3.116 (3.116) This issue is probably simplest to share as a dedicated repo: https://github.com/thundernixon/drawbot-varfont-issue ## Summary: I am trying to use a simple Drawbot script to...
I've added a set of rules to a variable font to swap `.italic` glyphs in for a high range in the `slant` axis. However, that means that FontMake is now...
Right now, VarFont Prep misses a bunch of glyphs, because it relies on the FontParts check `isCompatible()`, which isn't as strict as the compatibility requirements in cu2qu (the converter to...
