What steps will reproduce the problem?

3. Select "Create Outlines" from the Type menu in Illustrator.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Actual output: the font appears 'squished', as shown in the attached SVG image.

Turns out this is a known bug with ttfautohint - and because of this, Łukasz 
has released a separate version for desktop use.

Thus, this bug can be closed.

This bug can now be closed, at least with respect to Lato. Latest commit of 
that font fixes the autohint shredding.

Has there been a solution with Rokkitt? I'm having the same problem too.

The above link is not working, is there another source for Lato desktop version?
