I’m making five TTF’s. Manually hinted (Y-direction) from FontLab. It’s a typeface in five weights, interpolated, so the outlines are identical.
Everything was fine, until I manually added some new glyphs to all fonts, from another source document. I copy/pasted these new glyphs, about . After that, one of the fonts became 100K instead of 70K upon export.
All five fonts share same classes, features, components, number of kerning pairs etc and I’m using the same settings to export them too.
What could possibly be the issue with that one single font? I’m totally stuck. Any ideas?

What you need in is a tool that can show you the tables in the font and the size of each table so that you can do a comparison of before and after.
You could try TTX/FontTools to give you some detailed info of what is going on in each table of the fonts.
A tool that does comparisons of two or more font files is a valuable tool which many foundries will have, and is often written in-house to suit their own work practices.
Originally the document comes from Glyphs, but this happens after re-export from FontLab. On one font only.
