Hello Behdad. You have to point your bot to Googles fork of Playfair. For the future do not report these issues in my repo unless they truly are issues in the canonical Playfair.

Noted. Thanks.

Sorry to bother you again. I ran the tool against your fonts in the repo and found a couple issues with the Italic. I hope you don't mind me putting them here:
out.pdf

Which fonts exactly did you run it on? (NB: Your PDFs should report the exact file they are run on.)

This file: https://github.com/clauseggers/Playfair/blob/master/fonts/VF-TTF/PlayfairItalicVF.ttf

(NB: Your PDFs should report the exact file they are run on.)

Will work on that. Thanks.

Weird because I don’t have the issue in the Glyphs file. Perhaps the TTFs were generated using one of the CLI tools, I can’t remember.

Come to think of it, the PDFs should have all the meta-information available. I would like to see the following:
Full path & filename (and hash where available?)
Branch name.
Font version (and hash where available?)
Generated by info + version (if that exists in the fonts)
Time of PDF generation.

And how could I forget: GIT BLAME

Hi again. Would you mind closing this issue and possibly open another one for the remaining issues you want to address? That way my automated tools won't comment on this issue about updates. Sorry for the inconvenience.

The issue has not been fixed. It is now Sunday evening, so take a chill pill.

Hey ho, here we go. The release of Playfair 2.1 closes this issue.

Thank you!
