Tutorial: Autohinting with FontLab Studio 5 By on 2014-04-07 in This document describes an example process of generating hinted fonts with PostScript or TrueType outlines using automatic and/or simple manual steps in FontLab Studio 5. The production of hinted fonts can be primarily divided into three major parts: • reading hinting from existing native fonts • adding hinting to an existing.vfb document • writing hinting into generated native fonts For more detailed information about hinting in FontLab Studio, please refer to the User’s Manual. We also recommend reading the article by J. Victor Gaultney. Introduction There is a fundamental difference in how FontLab Studio ( FLS) treats hinting information for PostScript-flavored glyphs and TrueType-flavored glyphs.
There is code to query what version it is from within font val and issues a warning if it is not recent enough. Microsoft office 2007 for windows 10. While I bundle win32/win64/mac binaries of freetype so these platforms are taken care of, most linux boxes actually still have freetype 2.5.x or even 2.4.x.

PostScript‐flavored glyphs are those used in OpenType PS (.otf), Type 1 and MultipleMaster fonts. TrueType‐flavored glyphs are those used in OpenType TT (.ttf) and TrueType fonts. The native FontLab document format (.vfb) can store both kinds of glyphs. Hinting in PostScript‐flavored glyphs ( PS hinting) exists on one level only, so no translation or conversion is necessary.
FontLab Studio can losslessly read and write PS hinting, it can also losslessly modify PS hinting as well as generate it. More precisely: FLS supports Type 1 hints natively. When reading OpenType PS (.otf) fonts, FLS converts CFF hinting into Type 1 hinting. Hinting in TrueType‐flavored glyphs ( TT hinting) exists on two levels: • the low‐level TT hinting (native) — assembly code in the TrueType instructions language, compiled into binary form, stored in OpenType TT (.ttf) and TrueType fonts, as well as optionally stored in the FontLab.vfb documents. • the high‐level TT hinting (visual) — visual instructions in FontLab’s own TTH language, stored in the FontLab.vfb documents.
FontLab Studio can read low‐level TT hinting. FLS can also write the stored low‐level TT hinting but only for glyphs that had not been modified. If you modify a glyph, the stored low‐level TT hinting will be removed. FontLab Studio can also convert PS hinting into high‐level TT hinting, modify the high‐level TT hinting, and convert (compile) the high‐level TT hinting into the low‐level TT hinting. Note that FLS cannot convert (decompile) the low‐level TT hinting into the high‐level TT hinting. Opening fonts If you’d like to store the low‐level TT hinting when opening a TrueType‐flavored font, make sure the Preferences setting Opening OpenType & TrueType / TrueType/OpenType TT (.ttf) / Store TrueType native hinting is enabled.

If disabled, the TrueType assembly instructions will not be read from the font. If enabled, they will be read, stored in the.vfb document and written back into a new generated.ttf font — but only for the glyphs which have not been modified within FLS. A brown “ T” mark in the lower‐right corner of a glyph cell indicates that low‐level TT hints are present in the glyph (either read from the original TrueType‐flavored font, or generated using FontLab Studio’s TrueType Hinting tool). When opening PostScript‐flavored fonts, their hinting is always read from the font and stored in the.vfb document. PostScript outlines and PS hinting 3.1.
PS hinting UI elements Preferences The Preferences dialog box controls some vital aspects of how PostScript‐flavored fonts (Type 1 and OpenType PS) are generated. In Preferences / Generating Type 1, the option Autohint unhinted glyphs allows you to automatically autohint the font when it is generated even if you did not perform any specific autohinting tasks.
