Kerning Issues

therealbrendan

I've got four words here that require some attention, critique is appreciated.

'f' needs to move closer to 'a' in 'Leaf'

Overall kerning is good.
|r|i| must be a bit closer in Integrity.

I would loosen all pairs of Integrity EXCEPT the first one… In other words: use ‘In’ as the starting point.

IMO the best way to kern a word is to [1] find the difficult pair(s) that’s kind of unfixable and then [2] work from that starting point and do the others…

(Some thing with Flower: there is a big whole between F and l. Kern that a mite and then adjust the other pairings to emulate this.)
