Kerning values that involve classes are stored with the class, not with the “key glyph of the class” as they were in FontLab Studio 5.įor general information on kerning, see Kerning, for details on how to do class and regular kerning, see Editing Kerning, Classes panel for more information on classes and how to create them, and Kerning panel for the panel that displays all kerning pairs in the font. This means that if a member glyph of a kerning class is kerned with another glyph or class, FontLab assumes that you want to kern its entire parent class unless you specify otherwise. The classes used for kerning are called Kerning classes.įontLab allows you to kern between two glyphs, a glyph and a kerning class, a kerning class and a glyph, or between two kerning classes but class kerning has the highest priority. This approach to kerning is called Class Kerning and is defined in the glyph positioning (GPOS) feature kern. Such glyphs can be grouped together into classes, and kerning can be defined between classes, rather than between individual pairs. Some glyphs can have the the same outer shape on one or both sides-such as the left side of letters C, G and O, or both sides of A, Ā, Á, Ä and Ã-and so they could share the same kerning values, when they are being kerned with other glyphs.
