Not OP, but the answer is "no".
What exactly made you suspect such abilities?
- TheRealPomax 3y agoOdd phrasing, but: the part where I've worked on OpenType parsing for decades and love seeing people with a passion for digital typefaces make new and creative tools in that space. Typically folks don't stop working on a cool tool after they write a blog post, they're still refining and extending, so you never know how far someone is trying to take a tool without asking them.
- simbolit 3y agoSo, if I understand you correctly, it was less a question "does it do x?" and more an indirect form of "hey OP, would be cool if it did X" ?
- TheRealPomax 3y agoThis is not the place for starting a discussion about whether context and subtext should be implicit or explicit in written English. That's what https://philosophy.stackexchange.com https://philosophy.stackexchange.com is for.
- simbolit 3y agoI don't want to start a discussion, I wanted to know if I misread your original comment, and whether you meant something different from what I thought you meant. From your answer, tho very indirect, I now suspect that I did misunderstand your initial comment, and answering your question was missing the point. That is all I wanted (after at first wanting to be helpful).
- TheRealPomax 3y agoFair enough, I thought you were trolling, but you've made it clear you weren't. I wrote my comment as a question that would hopefully engage the author on the capabilities (both concrete, as well as hypothetical) of this approach to font generation.
