In Bold and Bold-Italic:

Use in Bold and Bold-Italic the PS Private -> Blue Values from the Regular and Italic font respectively.

Check if Bold letters are correctly positioned (horizontally) compared to Regular.

Change in Bold font PS Private -> StemSnapH to 97 Keep in Bold font PS Private -> StemSnapV to 105

Test how good Fontforge's embolding function is. Use on regular and regular italic.

FontForge embolding does look good. It should now be added to the build script.

Bold is now autogenerated with the help of fontforge. (use the helper script to generate the bold sfd files). Fontforges Bold generation does not increase the height of the glyphs.
