New font editing branch
Hi,
I had reason to do a little font design using Inkscape recently and found a few pain points... which I have fixed. As we are in string freeze, I pushed the changes to a new branch which can be found at:
bzr branch lp:~inkscape.dev/inkscape/font_editing
In particular I changed the font editing dialog:
1. Allowed for fonts with other than 1000 units per em. 2. Allowed setting 'ascent', 'descent', etc. 3. Allowed setting individual glyph horizontal advances. 4. Fixed bug where 'units-per-em' was not read correctly.
Feed back most welcome.
