if you go through the documentation of pfaEdit carefully, you'll realize the author clearly mentions the tool is not yet ready for professional-quality hinting. it does some amount of hinting, but is somewhat limited in some ways for the moment. meanwhile, hinting under ttf is a complete 'programming' type language in itself. postscript does its own ways of hinting, which adobe opened up. so we have no choice but to basically 'hand-tweak' hinting given the unique attributes of indic glyphs and conjuncts. anybody tried hinting on OTF indic yet? any experiences to share? let's get the hint. :-) LL |
