update-sparse-source-spacing-including_italics-2.robofont.py
"""
A script to make it slightly less painful to work with support sources.
Checks the spacing of glyphs in support sources, by re-interpolating
those glyphs from main sources, and checking the support glyphs against that.
Also places interpolated versions in the background, for visual reference.
Fixes small spacing discrepancies, but leaves bigger ones, as they might be intentional.
Can be run as a standalone script, or via RoboFont if you have the latest FontTools installed in RoboFont:
https://robofont.com/documentation/how-tos/overriding-embedded-libraries/#overriding-embedded-libraries
Assumptions / prequesites:
- You have a designspace that includes "sparse" / "support" sources
- These support sources may have to be separate UFOs. This hasn’t been tested with support layers.
- These support sources include the substring "sparse" or "support" in their filenames
- Full sources *don’t* include the substring "sparse" or "support" in their filenames
- You want to clear glyph color marks in support sources, and use red marks to
indicate glyphs to check (this can be configured below)
USAGE IN THE TERMINAL:
1. Install dependencies. FontTools, FontParts, ufoProcessor, ufonormalizer
2. If you have glyphs you don’t want to respace in support sources, update them in glyphsToNotRespace, below
3. Run this script in a terminal:
python3 <this_script_path>.py <your_designspace_path>.designspace
