This sounds like a plan. Fractional advances will wait until the next release. Specifically, would you agree with this plan? - Autohinter warping option will migrate from LIGHT to NORMAL - Autohinter LIGHT and LCD modes will switch to fractional advances - Native TrueType v40 will switch to fractional advances Re v40, do you follow GETINFO bits https://www.microsoft.com/typography/cleartype/truetypecleartype.aspx#Toc227035734 ? FreeType CFF also has LIGHT mode, I think. What about Adobe CFF?
