Re: [fontforge-users] How to determine a font's natural size?

[Evan A. <odd...@gm...>]

I see.

So, to sum. At least in the case of OpenType typefaces, a typeface *does*
have a formal "size" attribute that is part of the typeface info.

However, this attribute may be undefined, and in practice most OpenType
typefaces leave this attribute undefined.

Moreover, when it is defined, it has no formal meaning; rather it should be
seen as an informational commentary from the typeface's designer that the
design was optimized for this size.

Correct?
