Thin versions of trial fonts

Scripting
#1

I need to make “Thin” versions of fonts for trial only. This means no features, partial character set, no language support etc.). The script must process hundreds of .otf font files, add the suffix “Trial” to the font name/file name.

Any help out there?

I would consider a shell solution: glyphhanger could help with the subsetting, and for changing names and removing GPOS and GSUB tables, I would try fonttools.

Thanks. I would love to avoid them as they are both command line solution, which is not my cup of tea…
