3. Correction of name
Format> Naming: Font Family Name
NOTE: Without font name correction AMP Font Wiever (software for fonts testing) does not display the changes. AMP shows croped letters above CapHeight and below the Baseline, but the letters are actually correct.

hello there..
I admire your work. I am a student who is desperately needs a guide from a professional like you to assist me in my project.
All i need to know is how to create a hollow or hole inside a particular character that i created? For example ; the character "D", how do i edit(cut) the area inside so that it forms the character "D"?
