Google Fonts Onboarding: QA FAIL: Space and non-breaking space should have the same width
Closed this issue · 1 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
🔥 FAIL: Space and non-breaking space have the same width? (com.google.fonts/check/whitespace_widths)
🔥 FAIL Space and non-breaking space have differing width: The space glyph named space is 573 font units wide, non-breaking space named (uni00A0) is 578 font units wide, and both should be positive and the same. GlyphsApp has "Sidebearing arithmetic" (https://glyphsapp.com/tutorials/spacing) which allows you to set the non-breaking space width to always equal the space width.

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