Clean up ferris glyph #87

Closed Finii closed 1 year ago

Finii commented 2 years ago

[why] The ferris glyph has multiple outlines on top of each other. That can be problematic with some rendering engines. It is usually fine for svgs, but fonts can loose the information what is transparent and what is black.

[how] Open in InkScape and just join all paths to ONE path.

The face had another 'background color' (?) with punched out eyes, that make the joined paths rather complicated (lots of points). To avoid that the face outline has been cut and re-added below the eyeline.

Export as plain svg. This is not optimized by svgo. I'm not sure this is wanted here. After ending up in a font it does not make any difference anyhow.

Fixes: #86

This change has been active for some time in Nerd Fonts already with no complains - seems to be good ;)
