The Windows download runs on Linux -via wine: - -``` -wine [path-to-vfb2ufo]/exe/vfb2ufo.exe [roboto]/src/v2/Roboto_Thin.vfb -wine [path-to-vfb2ufo]/exe/vfb2ufo.exe [roboto]/src/v2/Roboto_Regular.vfb -wine [path-to-vfb2ufo]/exe/vfb2ufo.exe [roboto]/src/v2/Roboto_Bold.vfb -``` - -The converter should work both ways, so it is possible to convert altered UFOs -back into VFBs which can be opened in FontLab. - -### Notes -There is currently an issue when converting via vfb2ufo, in which -some anchors are dropped from glyphs. For now it is also necessary to run the -script `get_dropped_anchors.py` through FontLab after updating the VFBs, in -order to extract these dropped anchors into an external resource which is then -re-incorporated into the masters during the build. - -vfb2ufo may output UFOs with bogus timestamps. Verify the openTypeNameCreated -field in the output `fontinfo.plist` files. |
