New ttf autohinted Roboto classic vf #31

Open dberlow opened 5 years ago

CJ,

I’d like as a first step, to see if the new version of ttfautohint can run on the sources of Roboto.vf, for comparison to the original hinted instances.

This is on urgent request from client, so i’m copying Paley so they can price this, step-by-step.

Thanks.

@dberlow OK, here's the version of Roboto-min-VF.ttf run through ttfautohint-vf (attached)

The issue regarding the non-min version has been reported.

So this file should now go to a 10 12 14 18 point android rendering, Windows rendering in comparison to the static TTF’s w/same rendering.

Let me know.
