what is the best way to kerning in Volt? changing dx? or width?

hi,

what is the best way to kerning in Volt? changing dx? or width? I faced a problem when I kerning "pair Adjustment"for the same letter, ex: rr (in english) or Raa Raa (in arabic) when I test it and type the letter for 5 times, it shows spaces between them. anyone faced it before?

For left-to-right kerning, a Width adjustment should be made to the first glyph
For right-to-left kerning, an equivalent DX and Width adjustment should be made to the first glyph.

Hi John,

Would you please explain how "equivalent DX and Width adjustment" works? (For right-to-left kerning)
Did you mean, change DX for the first letter and width for the the second letter?

when I change the DX it will affect all other letters! for example: final Raa and Initial Baa

best

anyone can explain please?

again... anyone can explain please how "For right-to-left kerning, an equivalent DX and Width adjustment should be made to the first glyph." works?
