Refactor to use FontCustom #69

Closed jvatic closed 9 years ago

jvatic commented 10 years ago

I extracted the existing glyphs using a fontforge python script and setup FontCustom.

This makes adding and manipulating icons much easier, but the extracted glyphs appear to be a bit off. Using the original vectors instead of the extracted ones may fix the issue, or some work will need to be done to correct the rendering.

Another way of doing this would be to write a script to modify the existing fonts given an input svg (the FontCustom generate script would be a good place to start in this case).

Wow, this might be an excellent solution to allowing others to contribute. Thanks for working on it. I can't review it for a few days but will definitely merge if all is ok. I'll convert the originals to svg so it should solve the extract quality issue.

What's the status on this?

@samcollins do you still have the original files by any chance to improve the accuracy ?
