opentype__glyf_unused_data

Is there any unused data at the end of the glyf table?

opentype/glyf_unused_data

• Applies to: TTF
• Fontspector can hotfix?: no
• Fontspector can fix sources?: no

Rationale

This check validates the structural integrity of the glyf table, by checking that all glyphs referenced in the loca table are actually present in the glyf table and that there is no unused data at the end of the glyf table. A failure here indicates a problem with the font compiler.
