Hi
I want to create a font from handwritten characters (not physically connected to each other) and include slight variations of every character to mimic real handwritten imperfections. I know it can be done with OpenType alternates, but this still requires some manual work in Indesign when setting the text (choosing which variation of which character to use). Instead I would like to have the computer pick a variation randomly. Can this be done (on font level, Indesign (scripting) level, other software,...)?
Thanx
F

Source code for the Glyphs app is available and you can have a look inside the Open Type code at https://github.com/googlefonts/caveat
