Design Issues

[vv-monsalve]

Google Fonts Latin Plus coverage

• [x] Design all the glyphs required in the GF Latin Plus encoding
• [x] Create all the comb marks as mentioned below
• [x] Leave only the compound glyphs (e.g. adblgrave) marked in dark grey as pending to be created using the components

---

Diacritics

• [x] Please ensure the definitive design is adjusted in the combining marks, so they will be ready to create the compound glyphs.
• [x] Once the definitive design is ensured in the comb marks Legacy marks, delete the legacy marks and add them back so they are made using the comb marks as components.
• [x] Diacritics need to be balanced (in weight, size, contrast) and matching the style of the typeface design.
• [x] Adjust the vertical position using glyphs app locked guidelines.
• [x] Ensure related marks are consistent between them, e.g. caron and circumflex
• [x] Caron.alt need to have the alternate shape used in Ľ Slovak On page 30 of this document you can find detailed info around the vertical Caron.
• [x] Leave a 0 sidebearings value for the marks

Glyphs

• [x] The ampersand and Eng need to be consistent (in size and style) with the font. See RUSerius as reference
• [x] The German Double SS need to be fixed. This article is a good reference
• [x] Currency symbols are related to the overall design and have balanced proportions
• [x] ordfeminine and ordmasculine as well as superior numbers are well proportioned and with a balanced stem thickness. Issue of reference

Hi @RobLeuschke Smooch is still missing some of the required glyphs for the GF Plus encoding. The source file is still your version on DropBox, so please feel free to work on it.

[RobLeuschke]

These glyphs have now been created.

Hi @RobLeuschke, could you please provide more details about the font for the description of it. Currently, it only says "Smooch is a brushy handwritten script full of speedy personality." But the font is more than that and actually includes up to five stylistic sets plus some positional forms (init and final).

Thanks

@vv-monsalve I have created a more detailed description.
