Merriweather-ttf: update to 2.002.
30 Oct 2017 (Eben Sorkin) Merriweather v2.002
Made first Variable font version with the Roman. Italic is not generating yet.
General
Fixed interpolation issues in Both Roman and italic.
Quotes ‘“”’ made clearer.
‹›«» made less wide and more typical
All dashes and math symbols: heights corrected.
¿ ? adjusted to be somewhat less distinctive
all 10 arrows → now included
Diacritic anchor positions made common across family
Combining Diacritics centered on zero widths
Diacritic design generally improved and Vietnamese diacritics made so they \
are not made from composites (properly designed) and so they won’t be clipped.
File efficiency gained from forcing all glyphs that should made only from \
composites to do so.
Clunky spacing and design for in some Currency glyphs corrected
Lining Figures Added
Zero slash added
Non standard use of composites (flipped shapes) corrected
Missing Latin glyphs added
Total Glyph count in Roman and Italic made to match.
Open Type code added: aalt, ccmp, locl, sups, numr, dnom, frac, ordn, lnum, \
onum, case, liga, zero, cpsp
Added the Published (circle P) symbol
OpenType Features: Update code for more languages
Fractions: Improved and added limited support for inferior or subscript numbers
Weight Scale: Altered instance weights across roman and italic so nominal \
weights appear more even; italics are still slightly lighter, but less contrast \
with roman
Symbols: Made all styles share reference glyphs for copyright, registered \
and published symbols
Added Gawker/Elizabeth Style curling quotes, dollar and question mark and \
mediumBlackSquare (uni25FC) to a Stylistic set (ss01)
Language
Latin: Found and upgraded all non-combining diacritics to combining, and all \
combining now have zero width
Cyrillic: Found and fixed many side-bearing problems
Vietnamese: Fixed diacritics and the glyphs they are used for, as well as \
the o and u horns
Technology
OTF: Improved blue zones for PS OTFs
Italic specific fixes
Missing Cyrillic glyphs in Italic added
Fixed denominator and fraction glyphs
Corrected weight inconsistency in Currency Glyphs
