Style: GradeMax

The fit is non-symmetrical with outlines shifted right on setwidth, or the rsb not set. ?

I think the end result for the next round of development will be 2 files,

• Amstelvar-VF.ttf

• AmstelvarItalic-VF.ttf

And these will have a STAT table that knits them together into appearing as a single family to end users.

For the purposes of interpolation, the roman and italic are not interpolatable, so they are actually different design spaces that coincidentally work together "in parallel."

So I think the source UFOs should have 2 families, eg

etc

In "OpticalSizeMin"

The "parenleft" and "parenright" are not composites and so are not mirror images of one another. Do you care if the endings of the parentheses are slightly different angles?

• Roman

• Italic

• Berlow

• Crossland

This master is generated from a combination of ParaWeight, SerifRise and Contrast. Contrast has some width difference with Default master, therefore this is not a correct GradeMin master. Needs to be fixed.

Do you want all xheight values to equal 1000? or do you want them to be aligned with the lc 'x'? See the difference between the styles "WeightMax" vs. "WeightMin".

Here's a start for reality check that specifies only the first al all but the specific combos required, to make sure I've covered all the major areas of proofing variables

Let me know.

12. Calligraphy requires just a few very basic needs: pen, ink, dexterity and most of all, zeal. Curious and wily journalists braved the fury of the six brazen knaves picketing the mad queen. Justly vexed, the queen exiled the calligrapher who spattered black sumi ink on her fuzzy dog. Typography is known for two-dimensional architecture and requires extra zeal within every job. Their very kind aunt was subject to frequent dizzy spells, thus causing much anxiety and worry. The daredevils quivered, knowing that Rob would commit the faux pas of dozing when they jumped. 800-243-1759 [broken ragged unhyphenated at A to Z’s line length per specimen]

"AmstelvarAlpha-wdth84-wght10"

I am wondering why the fit of the Uppercase rounds are considerably tighter than the lowercase rounds?

I am also wondering about the spacing between the vertical upright and the sidebearings. See for example the setting 'MNOPQ'. Right side of 'P' also slightly tight with 'S' and 'n'

I can't quite figure out the rule of stem weights of diagonal chars. See 'K', 'M', 'N', 'R' ?

In "AmstelvarAlpha-srfr0-cntr8" the top right of the lc 'l' ascender has a points crossing in a triangular shape.

The website/index.html seems to be referring to an old version of the font. Specifically:

• the font filename (line 8) should be "../fonts/AmstelvarAlpha-VF.ttf"
• the axis extents are wrong (e.g. axis 'wght' has min: 75, default: 176, max: 500 when the current font has min: 38, default: 88, max: 250
• the axis names are wrong (e.g. the axis 'prwg' is not in the current font and is not a valid axis name, and the current font's axis 'XOPQ', among others, is not controlled)

• Roman
• Italic
• Chinese

个久以前在大征很我星是海的系辰远途遥

The Amstelvar Readme file was cobbled together from an initial writing of it by me, notes from myself and others that were appended, and other edits along the way. It doesn't make enough sense, which may be why the TN axes proposal is not being as easily understood as it could be, and it does not make sense to attempt additional axes proposals, additional documentation of the Alpha, or ongoing documentation of whatever the next phase of Amstelvar development is, without stopping to fix the AmstelvarAlpha Readme now.

So, There is a rewrite happening in google docs and a spreadsheet with attributes connected to what will be in the final alpha readme for going forward. Pleas let me tell you when these are ready for interaction, which they are not now.

Now that the HIDDEN_AXIS flag is part of the spec, it would be great if Amstelvar flagged those axes it doesn’t intend users to play with.

Related: I’m adding code to Axis-Praxis to hide hidden axes by default.

I have committed a first draft of a stat table 5a067fc.

@dberlow do you have a preferred order in which the axes should be displayed?

The TTF committed today appears to have direction issues in a few glyphs:

Alex, It looks to me like Amstelvar's user values are in units per em square, (upm, 2000), and they should be in 1/1000ths, per mille.

Can you double check, change if not correct and recommit to All?

Important.

The default wght is not "400" e.g. and the default wdth is not 1.

Alex is working on this.

These two axes have been renamed to the Parametric equivalents with the existing values.

The copies that do the same things, but are named for the registered axes now have values conforming to the specification.

thanks,

Add new 'parametric' axes "as-is", to allow blending to be done by js/css

I think this will make the gestalt system more transparent/understandable for web development professionals to play around with and seek enlightenment - who are the current stage target market, the "innovators" in the first segment of the adoption bell curve.

Alex and I came to agree that it's useful for a font family to share the same glyph order, as opposed to having to search around through each style.

So, Amstelvar-Roman-3 has that glyph order, except i moved "colonsign" out of the punctuation and into the monetary.

The italic seems to have taken up its own glyph order, which is not useful.

Please make sure that the italic and all subsequent source fonts of Amstelvar retain the same glyph order.

thanks.

These vertical metrics in the general font info are mismatched between the Roman vs. the others

Roman.ufo
Currently
UPM = 2000
Ascender = 1500 (H @ 1500, O overshoot at 1520)
Descender = -500

Italic.ufo
UPM 2000
Asc = 1568
Desc = -448

Amstelvar-opszmax.ufo
UPM 2000
Asc = 1568
Desc = -448

Amstelvar-ital-opszmax.ufo
UPM 2000
Asc = 1568
Desc = -448
x-height value differs from Roman opszmax

Please check the "reasonable" ranges of sizes, widths, weights and grades (those used in "real world text typography") are good in Amstelvar :)

From the very first version to the one currently available, Amstelvar already had the 3 currently registered axes, which are blended, "reigned in" so that the minimum width was by itself not resulting in anything too crazy, and probably the range that grade can travel can also be reduced to prevent a casual user from partying too hard.

opszmax
{} - vertical mismatch

UPM
Confirming that the UPM should be 2000 vs. 2048?

Asc/Desc
and, that the CapHt should sit on the Ascender value of 1500 (vs. 1568 in Ital)?
that the overshoot of the cap rounds should extend above 20 units?

Roman.ufo Ascender = 1500 (H @ 1500, O overshoot at 1520)
Italic.ufo Ascender = 1568 (H @ 150, O overshoot at 1526)

Typically the overshoot is accommodated by the Asc value so maybe 1568/-448 is to be the default?

Accents in some fonts stretch the concept of composites too far.

Amstelvar is one of them.

I. Accents in the “Glyph Repertoire” of Amstelvar…
a. come in 12 positions

1. above lc
2. below lc.
3. beside lc.
4. stacked above lc.
5. ditto uppercase
6. ditto smallcaps.

b. are required for 3 mighty* axes, and one smaller axis**

1. Weight, *Thin to Ultra.
2. Width, *Compressed to Wide
3. Optical Point sze, *8-144
4. Grade **88%-112% of weight (approx.)

c. pressure from the design space, on accents, in different positions, is not the same. In variation space

1. l.c. accents must react in height different from the caps as the x-height changes.
2. Accents above Caps in opsz max must react in height differently from l.c. in opsz max
3. in the thin compressed, the weights & widths in all 12 positions will be in a small range.
   in the ultra wide, the weights & widths in the 12 positions will be not be i a small range.
4. the design of a cedilla that connects to the bottom of a glyph,
   is not the same as a cedilla floating unconnected above a glyph
5. the height of stacked glyphs in opsz is even more radical, such that the single accents cannot just be stacked.

Jlll and I have discussed the issue and by the end of this week hopefully there will be a new Regular opsz build that demonstrates the issues at hand.

A full demonstration of the issue, will not be made until wght and wdth are drawn.

Over in http://typedrawers.com/discussion/comment/25823/#Comment_25823 @PeterCon said,

A bit of feedback on this font -- which also applies to Amstelvar: these are using custom axes, but are not following the spec requirements for custom axis tags:

Like other OpenType tags, axis tags are four unsigned bytes that can equivalently be interpreted as a string of four ASCII characters. Axis tags must begin with a letter (0x41 to 0x5A, 0x61 to 0x7A) and must use only letters, digits (0x30 to 0x39) or space (0x20). Space characters must only occur as trailing characters in tags that have fewer than four letters or digits.

Privately-defined axis tags must begin with an uppercase letter (0x41 to 0x5A), and must use only uppercase letters or digits. Registered axis tags must not use that pattern, but can be any other valid pattern.

https://www.microsoft.com/typography/otspec/fvar.htm has details on axis tag requirements.

I'd like to request that abcA and xyz2 can be changed to ABCA and XYZ2 in order to conform to the spec's requirements.

(This is the same as googlefonts/decovar#2)

In the "WeightMax" style the 'b' and 'd' ascenders are taller than the 'h', 'k', 'l'

Package contains y transparency suites, control glyphs only except in a few lc. extenders, where a-z are done.

All have correct style names and vertical metrics set.

Alex is integrating to post.

"OpticalSizeMax"
D - in other styles the rsb of 'D' is exactly the same as 'O'
o - o: (48, 47)

"wdth84-wght10"
See other Issue #7 about difference of fit of UC and lc rounds.

"WeightMin"
D - in other styles the rsb of 'D' is exactly the same as 'O'

Some of these may be the rounding of only a unit depending how they were derived. If they are an intermediate then it is probably better to "let the points fall where they may".

"WeightMax"
O: (50, 49)
D: (51, 50)
zero: (46, 47)
o: (40, 39)

"WeightMin"
o: (93, 92)

verifying that in the Italic lowercase it is intentional that few characters that are shorter relative to the others. e.g. g, q, x, z

Alex,
Goggle fonts needs to test some variable fonts. We need two files:

1. an AmstelvarAlpha.ttf font with the default only.
2. an AmstelvarAlpha.ttf variable font with
   the default and a wght axis only.
   a. recommended safe wght min = 156
   b. recommended safe wght max = 860
   the file attached are visual presentation of these extremes and the regular fro reference.

Let me know, thanks.

Google WGHT test extremes.pdf

The spec for the two axes is here:
https://www.microsoft.com/typography/otspec/dvaraxisreg.html

That is weight a per OS/2 values, with the default at 400 and the rest of the axis spread out as best as possible.

And a wdth with the default set to 100%, I believe and the min and max calculated to % from the existing per mille values.

Dave C. has requested the original axes be renamed and kept, WDTH and WGHT are his suggestions, but I'm looking to add them to our Proposal/Registry with l.c. names.

noting that the figures in the max optical size in the italics are wider than the roman by design.
