This video shows you how to remove excess nodes and get smoother curves.

1. Use the Validation Toolbar first to remove redundant nodes and off-curve extremes.

2. Use the keyboard shortcuts "Q" and "W" to move between previous and next nodes

3. Marquee select to select several nodes at once for deletion

4. Use Shift + cursor keys to move nodes by 100 funits
5. Use Ctrl + cursor keys to move nodes by 1 funit
6. Use cursor keys alone to move nodes by 10 funits

  • Open the glyph edit window.

    From the View menu, toolbars, select the validation toolbar, or press shortcut F7

    Font validation wizard, and Real-time glyph validation are only available in the Professional Edition of FontCreator.

    If I recall correctly, the glyph validation toolbar is available in the Home Edition.
