Hi,
I'm working on a webfont, and constantly testing using fontsquirrel's webfont generator, but the kerning doesn't work. I've tried expanding all kerning, and even resetting everything and make a new pair, but it's not working. I guess it has something to do with the settings in fontlab. Any ideas?

Jason, I'm testing in Safari, which does seem to support kerning for as far as I can see.
SiDaniels, I'm using the html files generated by the webfont generator, because I don't want to have to manually update a file on my own server constantly.
I'm curious, how do you guys do webfont testing? I'm testing about every ten minutes, which seems necessary to me, so there must be a quick way to do this.
By the way, I've sent an email to fontsquirrel about their generator. Will report soon.
text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;
I don't know if the generator's html adds that or not.
I'm asking if you've tried the real font. How do you know its the converter if you don't know if the real font kerns?
@Si: sorry for my vagueness. I know for sure that the kerning in verdana works, and verdana's kerning also disappears in the html file, so it has something to do with the generator.
I believe some of it came from limitations of computing power in the early days, some of it came because of the limitations of browser rendering engines – Webkit browsers, until only a while ago, weren’t able to position glyphs on non-integer positions due to how their type rendering engine worked.
