Design Issues

[vv-monsalve]

Google Fonts Latin Core & Plus coverage

• Design all the glyphs required both in the Latin Core + GF Latin Plus encoding
• Create all the comb marks as mentioned below
• Leave only the compound glyphs (e.g. adblgrave) marked in dark grey as pending to be created using the components

Diacritics

• Please ensure the definitive design is adjusted in the combining marks, so they will be ready to create the compound glyphs.
• Once the definitive design is ensured in the comb marks Legacy marks, delete the legacy marks and add them back so they are made using the comb marks as components.
• Diacritics need to be balanced (in weight, size, contrast) and match the style of the typeface design.
• Adjust the vertical position using glyphs app locked guidelines.
• Ensure related marks are consistent between them, e.g. caron and circumflex
• Caron.alt need to have the alternate shape used in Ľ Slovak On page 30 of this document you can find detailed info around the vertical Caron.
• Leave a 0 sidebearings value for the marks

Glyphs

• The ampersand and Eng need to be consistent (in size and style) with the font. See RUSerius as reference
• The German Double SS need to be fixed. This article is a good reference
• Currency symbols are related to the overall design and have balanced proportions
• ordfeminine and ordmasculine as well as superior numbers are well proportioned and with a balanced stem thickness. Issue of reference
• fractions and superior numerals have a good proportion + weight. Issue of reference

Spacing

• Inspect the spacing and kerning of the font to ensure it is working properly and most common cases are covered. Issue of reference
• Terminal forms spacing should avoid crashes or collisions. Issue of reference
