Bit of a newbie questions here, but is there a way have fontlab ouput the vertical stem widths. I've been measuring manually, and (while fun), it is a very slow process. Does fontlab generate a report like this? or is there a script that would help? Any tips would be appreciated.
Thanks
Use the Stem Histogram report script in the Adobe Font Development Kit for Opentype.
Thanks. Just what I was looking for!
AFDKO's StemHist script can also be run from within FontLab using the macro "Report Stem and Alignment Values" which should be in the Outlines macro folder. Ctrl+clicking the Run button brings up an options dialog.
