Does anyone care to share some thoughts, advice and good practices for a first time self-taught type designer entering the kerning process with MetricsMachine, via RoboFont extension?
Most type design books I read before beginning this project all recommended the Walter Tracy method for side-bearing metrics and I wonder if there is a framework for preparing contexts in which to view kerning pairs.
