Issue with pixel font custom parameters

I recently updated my app to version 3.3.1 (3343) and now an old pixel font doesn’t export custom parameters properly. I haven’t changed the parameter code since I last worked on this file ~2 years ago, and it was working fine back then.

Exporting it as a basic square pixel font (no custom parameters) works but then it doesn’t have the rounded corners. Exporting with overlaps removed or not seems to have no difference. Any ideas what I’m doing wrong?

I think it chokes on the -66 value. Try slightly different values, -64 or -62.

I tried lowering the –66 value to –64, –62, and –60 but each result is still not working.

Could you send me the .glyphs file?

Sure! What email address to I send it to?

Send it to support at this domain.

Thanks for the file. You have a grid of 125/1. that is great while working on the pure pixel. But it is enforced while the filters are applied. But the final font needs a much finer grid. You can specify that with a custom parameter in the instances.

Adding a Grid Spacing parameter did the trick! Thanks for your help Georg!
