Hey, everyone!
For no other reason than "this is what a particular app expects", I need to generate a TTF with glyphs encoded per "Macintosh Latin". When I open the "reference" font, it shows "(Mac)" in the window's title bar. The SFD file is encoded correctly, but when I try to generate a binary font, it changes. I see there are several "Generate Fonts..." type options that (I think) are relevant, including: - TrueType (yields a .ttf) - TrueType (MacBin) (yields a .bin) - TrueType (Mac dfont) (yields a .dfont) I've tried generating both a .ttf and .dfont, but the encoding gets changed to "UnicodeBMP" in both cases, which I don't want. What am I missing? A separate setting? Any suggestions are VERY welcome!

I think there's an encoding menu where you can set this before generating ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ What NetFlow Analyzer can do for you?

Thanks for the response, Dave. On Wed, Jul 20, 2016 at 7:11 AM, Dave Crossland <[hidden email]> wrote:
There is, but that's why I'm confused. Before generating the TTF, the encoding is set to "Macintosh Latin" (showing "Mac" in the window titlebar). I generate the TTF with default options. After generating the TTF, the encoding is somehow set to "UnicodeFull". What am I doing wrong? I'm on Windows 7, using FF 20160407. I can confirm that the line "Encoding: Mac" is shown in the SFD file, but when I open the file (with the Python API) it shows up as a "Custom" encoding instead. Is there anything that can be done? -- Abraham ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ What NetFlow Analyzer can do for you?

I figured it out, though I'm not sure how I missed it before. The correct "Generate Fonts..." output option needed to be "TrueType (Symbol)". That was enough to maintain the "Macintosh Latin" encoding that I needed. Sorry for the noise. BTW, in case anyone was curious how to select that option in the Python API, the correct syntax is: font.generate('filename.ttf', flags=("symbol",)) Best, Abraham On Wed, Jul 20, 2016 at 9:27 AM, Abraham Lee <[hidden email]> wrote:
