Broken rendering of accented Latin characters using Istok Web font #87

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
Try to render accented Latin capital character (for example "Egrave") using 
Google Web Fonts API, i.e. with <link 
href='http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Istok+Web' rel='stylesheet' 
type='text/css'> tag. Its displayed as "E", that is without grave accent.

I think it arises from stripping the font on fonts.googleapis.com site, namely 
unencoded glyph from it, since "Egrave" has reference to unencoded 
"uni0300.cap".

This turned out to be strange behavior in FontForge - at first I had trouble 
replicating the issue because I wasn't using "namelist". But when I ran that, I 
found that attempting to format the glyph name as a number (for generating the 
namelist output) actually changed the behavior. I put a check in to make sure 
to only format it if it's already an integer, and it seems to work. (changeset
