edit: you have to click "File -> Generate" to actually create the font.
Until next month 
I can't make DejaVu Serif Condensed bolder using FontForge. The fracking application crashes if I try to do that. It did work for the normal DejaVu Serif; barely. |
I already use on my Kobo Glo both Charis Sil modified and Dejavu e-ink. After reading this post, I tried to modify Linux Libertine otf fonts. Alas, fontforge send me a cryptic message: "Incorrect number for Serif Height Fuzz" and my expected contribution to the free font paradise fell flat...
Could some expert have a try at it? I only joined the italic and regular fonts
