I am designing a script font with different alternates. I read this article http://ilovetypography.com/2011/04/01/engaging-contextuality/ and would like to use same idea as “Handsome” font has. So my expectation to get a smart font automatic replacements for each first and last letters with contextual alternates.
Can you please suggest any article or step by step instruction.
At the moment I know how to do 1,2,4 but don’t have any idea how to show stylistic alternates for contextual ones. Can you help me with that?
Since I did 12-20 stylistic alternates for my flamingo font I am looking for a solution to automate as much as possible. Especially for photoshop users.
For the the salt Feature, Glyphs copies the ss01 by default. You can deactivate the automation and roll your own. It is just like any other substitution feature.
You can automate it to some degree by hanging multiple suffixes, e.g., .init.ss01, to your glyph names. Feature suffixes will have to be in feature order, and there must be a glyph for every stage, e.g., .init, and then .init.ss01.
