![]() ![]() That will be the FontForge vertical point for the ascender line in their coordinate system. To set the baseline where you want it in FontForge, take the y coordinate for your baseline in SVG. In the FontForge coordinate system, the baseline is at their 0 point on their vertical access. (I got these figures from AH Formatter GUI, but you could use FontForge or similar.)I attached an example here from FontForge. This font will be used to make labels in a GIS software program, and the labels will be composed of several glyphs layered together, in that 2-4 glyphs may compose a single label. (I got these figures from AH Formatter GUI, but you could use FontForge or similar. If you know the font metrics, you could be a bit more accurate with the technique by tmakita and set the padding to the difference between the font's altitude and cap-height. I'm using FontForge, and I've created the glyphs in Adobe Illustrator, and I've gotten the basics down. ![]() If you know the font metrics, you could be a bit more accurate with the technique by and set the padding to the difference between the font's altitude and cap-height. The FO processor is Apache FOP in case that matters. For instance it might contain the baseline serif, the x-height serif, the cap-height serif. For example the BlueValues entry specifies certain key regions of the font in a vertical direction. If you enter a, by mistake FontForge will convert it for you. I've tried to use baseline-shift, alignment-adjust, space-before, etc., but neither of them seems to have any effect on the label. Similarly the decimal point in numbers must be. But how do I do that? Here's the XSL-FO file: The horizontal position is OK, but the vertical is maybe centered according to the font metrics, but visually it's slightly to the top, so I'd like to move it a couple points down. After importing the glyph scans and autotracing them the quality is quite good with the exception of baseline which is sometimes substantially different in different glyphs. I want to center the text vertically and horizontally. I'm completely new to FontForge and I try to make a quick-and-dirty replica of an old font used in 1907 to typeset a Medieval Polish text. I've managed to get it pretty close to but not quite what I want. I'm trying to write a small XSL-FO file with absolutely positioned elements. Once you are happy with the form and spacing of your lowercase âoâ character as shown with a sample string, the next step of this approach is to create a suitably shaped, balanced, and well-spaced lowercase ân,â which you will inject into your string of âoâs. ![]()
