Missing OT feature names #1

Closed ThomasRettig closed 2 years ago

Cal Sans Font Gauntlet Screenshot It seems to be that some OpenType features in your font have missing names. Please refer to the bottom left of the screenshot for info! That said, although they have missing names, the alternates still work.

ahh thank you! @MarkFonts can take a look at it

Hi! I’ll look into this but the OpenType spec only recently added support to name features.

I followed the protocols used for Inter, which also does not display “named” character variants.

inter

Font gauntlet might not properly support character variants’ naming, they are named in the glyphs file. Also, Adobe programs can’t use character variants.

So, so long as someone can indicate a CV in CSS, that might be the best we can have. Very few fonts use this OT feature.

Hmmm, that's strange. I never knew this was a Font Gauntlet-specific issue, but since the font is perfectly functional, I think there isn't much of a problem then. Thanks for responding!

P.S. Great font, can't wait for updates!
