Tips for better font output

Quality checks before you ship a family.

  1. Keep a consistent baseline: Use guides so cap height and x-height stay even.
  2. Test at small sizes: Glyphs that look fine large may fail in body text.
  3. Validate spacing early: Fix side bearings during development, not after export.
  4. Export iteratively: Version exports and test compatibility in each target app.
