Kerning pair with lig's.

Eric_West

Just wanted to know if this was the correct way to do kerning pairs w/ligs, since i can’t seem to pull up the lig without the back-slash.

Thanks

Yep.

Here’s how that would look as an OpenType feature:

feature kern {
pos f_l i -1;
} kern;

Couldn’t be simpler! Nice looking forms, too, Eric.

Thanks Chester!

I know you didn’t ask, but... The crossbar of the “f” traditionally doesn’t touch the “l”. You’ve got something there that looks a little bit like a cap “A”.

Point taken.

You can also type “/f_l int” (note the space after /f_l). The slash is required so FLS knows “f_i” is the glyph name not three individual glyphs.
