Problem visualizing and printing thin font  manuelcorradine's
picture   I'm designing a font family of nine weights and when I
try it on MS Word here comes the problem. I know MS Word isn't
the best typographic program but there are some people that use
it and deserve quality on fonts. The problem happen only in the
thinnest style and consist in the following:  As you can see in
small sizes the MS Word expand the character shapes and the real
proportions aren't showed.  If anybody can help me I apreciate
it very much.  Thank you in advance,   manuelcorradine's picture
Notice: The font works fine in Illustrator, Corel Draw...!
George Thomas's picture  Did you hint your fonts? What program
did you build the font in?  manuelcorradine's picture  I use
FontLab, and I run autohint. But if the problem is the hinting
why the font works fine in the other programs?  Mark Simonson's
picture  Make sure the weight value is not lower than 250 (first
panel in FontLab’s Font Info dialog if that’s what you’re
using).  manue
