Hello, I have successfully exported a variable font (made with FL5) from FL7.
Myfonts has a new validation gate, and although my static fonts are fine (exported from FL5) the variable font is flagged with overlaps, cannot be installed on OSX and incorrect path direction.
As I understand, the overlaps are fine in a variable font so this validator is being a bit overzealous. The installation works as well and font names show up fine in photoshop and the font is fully functional. However, the display in fontbook is a bit odd with .notdef characters.
Now, what I believe is the only issue: path directions.
Your documentation says "[color=rgba(0, 1, 2, 0.
][font="IBM Plex Serif", Arial, sans-serif]this all doesn’t matter in FontLab VI anymore.[/font][/color][color=rgba(0, 1, 2, 0.
][font="IBM Plex Serif", Arial, sans-serif] "[/font][/color]
[font="IBM Plex Serif", Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]https://help.fontlab.com/fontlab-vi/Contours/[/font]
In fact, in FL5 you could set the start point for that path and change from TT to PS direction, but none of that appears to be configurable anymore.
Also, when you set the start point, it mangles multiple master fonts because this does not replicate to the other layers (!!!!!!).
So, how can this be solved?
