Hi there,

I'm unable to download webfonts from Typekit/Fonts.com. Any advice on how to calculate baseline ratio with lesser-known typefaces?

Thanks!

Update: I tried getBaseline.js but I can't figure out how to generate a return. Here's the fiddle.

Any help would be amazing!

Thanks,

Brendan

@dolanb12 On a Mac you can sync Typekit fonts with the Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop app and then - although they don't show up in FontBook - you should be able to measure the baseline ratio by entering the font name here: https://jamonserrano.github.io/plumber-sass/measure/

I've just synced Amaranth Italic and as you can see in the screenshot it is successfully loaded in the measure tool.
font_synced
measure

I hope this helps!

Amazing, thanks!

I was under the impression that "Local Font" meant "system font" (arial, verdana, etc.).

My mistake. What a great tool!
