.notdef should be glyph 0 and a standard shape #4

Closed kenmcd closed 3 weeks ago

OpenType Recommendation and GF requires it. And GF requires it it be a "standard" form such as a box.

Currently the .notdef is glyph 369 in the .glyphs source file.

Hmmmm... but it looks like the VF font I built with fontmake has it at 0. And the statics from gfbuilder also have it at 0. And it has been changed to a rectangle. So have to keep an eye on this.

Best to fix it in the Glyphs source to be sure.

Thanks for the info here @kenmcd, I wasn't aware of the GF requirement.

We've replaced the design and I believe I've fixed the order with a glyphOrder parameter in the latest commit.

This is fixed in the source.
