Requires new manual TT hints

[EbenSorkin]

Woukd we want to complete any additions to the glyph set first? The newest African standard is I think slightly bigger than what they made. Maybe the order doesn’t matter?

Hi everybody!

Thanks @EbenSorkin for noticing this, where can we find the new SSA character set?

[EbenSorkin]

It is here: https://github.com/googlefonts/glyphsets/blob/main/data/results/txt/nice-names/GF_Latin_African.txt

[EbenSorkin]

It has been renamed to GF African and it is here:

https://github.com/googlefonts/glyphsets/blob/main/data/results/txt/nice-names/GF_Latin_African.txt

Also Beyond is here

https://github.com/googlefonts/glyphsets/blob/main/data/results/txt/nice-names/GF_Latin_Beyond.txt

It looks like the difference is now 4 more for African and 3 more for Beyond.

This text can be used to make a filter in Glyphs that shows what the additions are

-e.

@chrissimpkins STATUS: We are waiting for the glyphset update + hinting. Maybe we should put it aside since we are still waiting for confirmations?

[davelab6]

Thanks Eben! This will be done before the hinting starts June 1

[chrissimpkins]

Moving this back to Q3

[m4rc1e]

Should have this finished by the end of the quarter. Currently checking the hint transfer I made https://github.com/google/fonts/pull/8175

[chrissimpkins]

Updating to P2
