Comma and comma-part of semicolon are too large. #16

I hope you haven't tired of my posts here πŸ˜„

This seems to be the final thing that would be great to improve. Maybe it's just for my eyes, but , (comma, U+002C) and the comma-part of of ; look larger than . (period, U+002E).

If you agree, than I suppose it would be better to reduce their size a little.

By the way, which app you use to draw fonts? I want to draw a font of my own script.

The commas is certainly big! I fixed these as well:)

The font "Yomogi" is the first font I made more than 10 years ago, so I handwritten hiragana, alphanumeric characters, and a few kanji with an iFontMaker app on the ipad, and the rest of the kanjis with Illustrator. I pasted it into Glyphs.

When I create a script font like the one below, I draw lines with the pen tool in Illustrator, convert it to outlines, paste it into Glyphs, and then adjust the details.

If you want to draw a font that looks more like handwriting, I recommend scanning your handwriting on paper, extracting the outlines with an app like Potrace, and adjusting with Glyphs.(If not, you may be able to make it using Glyphs only.)
