Google Fonts Latin Plus coverage

  • Design all the glyphs required in the 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 matching 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

This font has been completed. All Stylistic sets are notated. Some glyphs have not had overlaps removed in case more modifications need to be made.

I also added a png image file for Mewo Script.

Hi @RobLeuschke,

Meow Script spacing/connections seems to have an 'almost connected, not touching' logic. However, there are some combinations where they are totally connected and others that are in the middle and this is creating some sort of arrhythmias in the text.

Please download the latest MeowScript.glyphs file from DropBox to inspect the spacing/kerning to ensure it is working as intended.

Hi @RobLeuschke would you like to review the connections or should we go ahead as it is right now?

I have made a few minor adjustments, so I am satisfied with how it is working.
