Feature Request: CSV + JSON format

Closed this issue 2 years ago · 4 comments

I like CSV for keeping the glyph data as it's much more space-efficient than json, however this means the font data (atlas and metrics fields) gets discarded. It'd be nice to be able to output both a CSV with the glyph data, and a JSON file with the metrics. Or maybe two csv files?

You can have both outputs generated in a single invocation, although most of the data will be duplicated. Is that not sufficient? A very simple script could then be used to remove the redundant data from the JSON file.

-and flag is for multiple fonts, just use both output arguments.
