Check font

Find problems before you export: missing names, broken features, near-miss points, a missing space.

Where
  • Font › Check font…
  • Runs automatically on export

The check lists errors, warnings and notes, such as:

  • a blank family name, or no glyphs;
  • impossible metrics (ascender not above descender…);
  • unencoded glyphs without a valid name;
  • feature code that doesn't compile;
  • Latin letters without a space glyph;
  • points that sit a unit or two off a metric line;
  • with several masters, a reminder that a single export uses only the active one.

Clean fonts export straight through; warnings ask once, defaulting to Cancel.
