Fontbakery reportFontbakery version: 0.8.1 [1] Family checks⚠ WARN: Is the command `ftxvalidator` (Apple Font Tool Suite) available?--- Rationale --- There's no reasonable (and legal) way to run the command `ftxvalidator` of the Apple Font Tool Suite on a non-macOS machine. I.e. on GNU+Linux or Windows etc. If Font Bakery is not running on an OSX machine, the machine running Font Bakery could access `ftxvalidator` on OSX, e.g. via ssh or a remote procedure call (rpc). There's an ssh example implementation at: https://github.com/googlefonts/fontbakery/blob/main/prebuilt/workarounds /ftxvalidator/ssh-implementation/ftxvalidator
[9] Saira-Italic[wdth,wght].ttf💔 ERROR: Font has old ttfautohint applied?--- Rationale --- This check finds which version of ttfautohint was used, by inspecting name table entries and then finds which version of ttfautohint is currently installed in the system.
⚠ WARN: Is there kerning info for non-ligated sequences?--- Rationale --- Fonts with ligatures should have kerning on the corresponding non-ligated sequences for text where ligatures aren't used (eg https://github.com/impallari/Raleway/issues/14).
⚠ WARN: A static fonts directory with at least two fonts must accompany variable fonts--- Rationale --- Variable font family directories kept in the google/fonts git repo may include a static/ subdir containing static fonts. These files are meant to be served for users that still lack support for variable fonts in their web browsers.
⚠ WARN: METADATA.pb: Designers are listed correctly on the Google Fonts catalog?--- Rationale --- Google Fonts has a catalog of designers. This check ensures that the online entries of the catalog can be found based on the designer names listed on the METADATA.pb file. It also validates the URLs and file formats are all correctly set.
⚠ WARN: On a family update, the DESCRIPTION.en_us.html file should ideally also be updated.--- Rationale --- We want to ensure that any significant changes to the font family are properly mentioned in the DESCRIPTION file. In general, it means that the contents of the DESCRIPTION.en_us.html file will typically change if when font files are updated. Please treat this check as a reminder to do so whenever appropriate!
⚠ WARN: Ensure Stylistic Sets have description.--- Rationale --- Stylistic sets should provide description text. Programs such as InDesign, TextEdit and Inkscape use that info to display to the users so that they know what a given stylistic set offers.
⚠ WARN: Ensure fonts have ScriptLangTags declared on the 'meta' table.--- Rationale --- The OpenType 'meta' table originated at Apple. Microsoft added it to OT with just two DataMap records: - dlng: comma-separated ScriptLangTags that indicate which scripts, or languages and scripts, with possible variants, the font is designed for - slng: comma-separated ScriptLangTags that indicate which scripts, or languages and scripts, with possible variants, the font supports The slng structure is intended to describe which languages and scripts the font overall supports. For example, a Traditional Chinese font that also contains Latin characters, can indicate Hant,Latn, showing that it supports Hant, the Traditional Chinese variant of the Hani script, and it also supports the Latn script The dlng structure is far more interesting. A font may contain various glyphs, but only a particular subset of the glyphs may be truly "leading" in the design, while other glyphs may have been included for technical reasons. Such a Traditional Chinese font could only list Hant there, showing that it’s designed for Traditional Chinese, but the font would omit Latn, because the developers don’t think the font is really recommended for purely Latin-script use. The tags used in the structures can comprise just script, or also language and script. For example, if a font has Bulgarian Cyrillic alternates in the locl feature for the cyrl BGR OT languagesystem, it could also indicate in dlng explicitly that it supports bul-Cyrl. (Note that the scripts and languages in meta use the ISO language and script codes, not the OpenType ones). This check ensures that the font has the meta table containing the slng and dlng structures. All families in the Google Fonts collection should contain the 'meta' table. Windows 10 already uses it when deciding on which fonts to fall back to. The Google Fonts API and also other environments could use the data for smarter filtering. Most importantly, those entries should be added to the Noto fonts. In the font making process, some environments store this data in external files already. But the meta table provides a convenient way to store this inside the font file, so some tools may add the data, and unrelated tools may read this data. This makes the solution much more portable and universal.
⚠ WARN: Each font in set of sibling families must have the same set of vertical metrics values.--- Rationale --- We may want all fonts within a super-family (all sibling families) to have the same vertical metrics so their line spacing is consistent across the super-family. This is an experimental extended version of com.google.fonts/check/family/vertical_metrics and for now it will only result in WARNs.
⚠ WARN: Does the font have a DSIG table?--- Rationale --- Microsoft Office 2013 and below products expect fonts to have a digital signature declared in a DSIG table in order to implement OpenType features. The EOL date for Microsoft Office 2013 products is 4/11/2023. This issue does not impact Microsoft Office 2016 and above products. As we approach the EOL date, it is now considered better to completely remove the table. But if you still want your font to support OpenType features on Office 2013, then you may find it handy to add a fake signature on a dummy DSIG table by running one of the helper scripts provided at https://github.com/googlefonts/gftools Reference: https://github.com/googlefonts/fontbakery/issues/1845
