One of the things that really bugs me is how the names list in Fontographer and
the names
list in FontLab have minor differences.
I always use Fontographer to draw my characters; then I process my fonts with
FontLab,
which sorts out some problems that Fontographer causes in modern operating
systems.
The disconnect between the names lists is annoying; whenever I open a font in
Fontlab
several characters are duplicated because of nameslist issues.
There are ways of editing the names list in Fontographer; I've been doing it for
years on the
Mac with ResEdit. I'm considering a serious review of Fog's names list to see if
I can fix my
own copy.
Has anyone else out there done similar work? Or noticed the problem?
