Hi there,
Checking my fonts at Fontdeck I discovered that using Safari kerning was not displayed. I made a tests and regenerated a couple of fonts with "old school" flat kerning tables in parallel and the kerning began to work in Safari.
Since this solution would dramatically increase font file sizes, my question is if there is a way around it. Is it impossible to get Safari to read the KERN feature?
Thanks in advance.

text-rendering: optimizeLegibility
… turns on OT kerning and ligatures in Safari.
Maybe it's a possibility that the kerning is far too complex for the browser to understand it?

I am puzzled...
Safari 5.1.7 should support kerning using the line:
text-rendering: optimizeLegibility
...and it does it for certain fonts.
