Re: font survey: which clef do you prefer?

[Janek Warchoł]

Hi all,

currently it is:
left: James, Ralph, Nick, Werner, Xavier
middle: Brent, Luca, Matthew
right: Reinhold, Paul, Martin, Trevor, James Worlton, Tim, Daniel,
Dmytro, Robert, Janek

therefore i'm opening a Rietveld issue: http://codereview.appspot.com/4664070

I agree that even the third clef could be improved, but i don't think
i'm able to make it any better myself.  If you want to try, i attach
my patch. A tip to speed up work: use this script to generate a dvi
preview of glyphs (no need to run make, and it also shows metafont
control points):
#!/bin/bash
mf '\mode:=proof; input feta20'
 gftodvi feta20.2602gf \
 && mv feta20.dvi feta20new.proof.dvi

If you have trouble figuring out what to change, ask.

True.  Please send me some 2.15.5-compatible input files and i'll
compile them with my suggested clef, so we'll have some real-life
example to study.  I'll also take something from my collection.

thanks,
