Some time soon you need to move to an actual type design app. That will allow you to work on the spacing, which is an important part of the design. The z establishes a baseline, but you don’t seem to…3 -

Because of my forensic work, and legal cases around point size, I have had occasion to check the size (caps and often x-height) of dozens of typefaces. I can report that the strong majority of typefa…6 -
Re: Should ascenders/descenders match the "Ascender" and "Descender" vertical metric values?
@"Rishi Murugesan": Set up some sort of metrics after drawing your first few glyphs. Review occasionally, during the early stages of design. Recheck again once the design is reasonably lock…3 -
Re: Should ascenders/descenders match the "Ascender" and "Descender" vertical metric values?
First off, the relative sizes of your actual caps, x-height and actual glyph ascender and descender should be dictated by the design, not by any theoretical metrics requirements. There is no need or …4
