Hi all! I’m having a weird issue with a kerning pair not exporting on a variable font I’ve been working on. I’ve tried re-locking pairs and running the “steal metrics” script from a master whose pair works.
“AWA” displaying nicely in Glyphs.
“AW-A” when exported. Strangely the Italic axis still has the proper kerning.
In the Light Italic Master, there is a @W to ‘A’ kerning pair. That is distributed to all other masters on export and overwrites the @W@A kerning. So remove that exception manually and it will work.
filter for exceptions in the kerning window and check if you have more cases like this (e.g. W+O).
