I try to export a glyph from a font but the results seem not coherent preview of ! char in birdfont:

svg export is cropped at the bottom Screenshot from 2022-05-31 15-23-39

Any idea how to prevent that? Thank you

Hi. Please take a look at the placement of your horizontal guides. 1) Select all buttons under Guidlinesn & Grid 2) Click on the trianglar handle on each line and move the line. image

Did it work?

Hi, Thx. I get some results. I'm trying to be able to understand the equivalence between the terms from Birdfont, and generic terms like here: image Birdfont (top margin, top, x-height, baseline, bottom, bottom margin, line gap)

Nice. Feel free to suggest renaming if you find better names for the guides.
