Google Fonts Onboarding: QA FAIL: Each font in a family must have the same set of vertical metrics values.

Closed this issue · 2 comments

Google Fonts onboarding uses FontBakery for QA. All FAIL level checks from the universal, opentype and googlefonts profiles must be passing in order to onboard fonts to Google Fonts. Exceptions can be made if necessary.

See the Quality Assurance section of the Google Fonts Guide for more information: https://googlefonts.github.io/gf-guide/qa.html

Of all the issues that need to be addressed for Google Fonts onboarding, this is one of the most important and urgent ones.

This should be fixed in the latest version (v1.012) of the fonts.
