+*這些腳本適用於像素字型的工作流程，讓您可以在較粗的網格中放置像素組件。如果您在進行像素設計，可以查看「視窗 > 外掛程式管理員」中提供的像素相關外掛程式。* + +* **Align Anchors to Grid（將錨點對齊格線）：** 將變音符號的錨點對齊至字型格線。 +* **Delete Components out of Bounds（刪除超出邊界的組件）：** 如果組件被放置在一般座標範圍之外（當您使用 cmd-方向鍵移動具有較大格線間距的組件時可能發生），這個腳本會將其刪除。 +* **Delete Duplicate Components（刪除重複組件）：** 尋找重複的組件（相同名稱和位置）並只保留一個。這種情況在製作像素字型時經常發生。 +* **Flashify Pixels（Flash 像素最佳化）：** 建立小型橋接以防止路徑自我相交，使字符內空白部分保持白色。這個問題在 Flash 字型渲染器中特別明顯，因此腳本以此命名。 +* **Reset Rotated and Mirrored Components（重設旋轉和鏡射組件）：** 尋找經過縮放、鏡像和旋轉的組件，將它們恢復為預設的縮放比例和方向，但保持其位置不變。這對修正鏡射像素很有用。 + +## Post Production（後製處理） + +*如果您使用最新版本的 Glyphs，DSIG 和 GDEF 腳本已不再需要。對於義大利體的匯出，我建議修正 PS 名稱和 STAT 項目。Upgrade STAT 腳本是選用性的，它會新增目前軟體幾乎不支援的範圍，但可能對未來相容性有幫助。* + +* **Add Empty DSIG (OTVAR)「新增空白 DSIG」：** 在匯出可變字型 (TTF) 後執行此腳本，它會新增一個空白的 DSIG 表格。這是通過 MyFonts 的 OTVAR TTF 上架程序所必需的。需要 FontTools 模組。在最新的 Glyphs 3.2+ 版本中，此腳本應該已不再需要。 +* **Fix GDEF class definition of Legacy Marks (OTVAR)「修正傳統標記的 GDEF 類別定義」：** 修正最近匯出的 OTVAR

項目的名稱表格中重複的義大利體命名，例如將 `MyfontItalic-SemiboldItalic` 改為 `MyfontItalic-Semibold`。在匯出義大利體可變字型後立即執行此腳本。需要 FontTools 模組。 +* **Fix Italic STAT Entries (OTVAR)「修正義大利體 STAT 項目」：** 針對每個軸向，將一般 STAT 項目重新命名為「Regular」（必要時也會修改名稱表格），並使其可省略（Flags=2）。通常只在義大利體 OTVAR 匯出時需要。需要 FontTools 模組。 +* **Read and Write Axis Values (OTVAR)「讀取與寫入軸向數值」：** 在 OTVAR 匯出後執行一次，它會讀取目前 Glyphs 檔案最近匯出的 STAT.AxisValueArray，並在您的可變字型設定中新增「Axis Values」參數。當執行時若存在這些自訂參數，它會用來重寫目前 Glyphs 檔案最近匯出的 OTVAR 中的 STAT.AxisValueArray。自訂參數的數值語法：`axisTag; value=name, value=elidableName*, minValue:nominalValue:maxValue=name, value>linkedValue=name` +* **Upgrade STAT Axis Values from Discrete to Ranges (OTVAR)「將 STAT 軸向數值從離散升級為範圍」：** 將具有多個軸向數值的軸的格式 1（離散）STAT 項目轉換為格式 2（範圍）。請在匯出可變字型後立即執行此腳本。需要 FontTools 模組。 + +## Smallcaps（小型大寫字母） + +*當我的字型中有小型大寫字母時，我總是會執行 Check Smallcap Consistency（檢查小型大寫字母一致性）。不過對其報告要抱持保留態度：它列出了許多誤判項目，且並非每個警告都同樣重要。* + +* **Check Smallcap Consistency（檢查小型大寫字母一致性）：** 對您的小型大寫字母集進行一系列測試，並在巨集視窗中提供報告，特別是針對調距群組和字符集的部分。 +* **Copy Kerning from Caps to Smallcaps（從大寫複製調距至小型大寫字母）：** 尋找大寫字母的調距字偶，並在字型中有對應的 .sc 字符時，複製其調距設定。請謹慎使用：這會覆寫現有的小型大寫字母調距字偶。 + +## Spacing（間距） + +*至關重要：Fix Math Operator Spacing（修正數學運算子間距）、Bracket Metrics Manager（括號度量管理器），如果有箭頭符號，則需要 Fix Arrow Positioning（修正箭頭位置）。建立數字時，New Tab（開新分頁）系列腳本很實用。* + +* **Add Metrics Keys for
