I noticed that the patched Cascadia Code font differs in several aspects from the original font. It is especially noticeable with bold the bold font face.

Please focus on the m. The NF letters are more difficult to read.


Edit: Okay, noticed that the font included in nerd-fonts is over a year old which is a lot for a such a young font like Cascadia

What I tried now is patch the newest version of Cascadia code. But no there is another issue that the letters become taller: #519 (comment)

This is not a bug with the patcher. The variable TTF is the recommended font by the type designer of Cascadia. But Nerd Font patcher / fontforge uses static version. It's the two original font types that already differ. Relevant:
