Robofont extension for manipulating your glyph’s sidebearings.
Sidebear installs itself in your Inspector, underneath the Glyph Info pane.
Enter Desired SB
You may enter numerical values or glyph names. If you place a comma ,
before or after the glyph name, the opposite SB will be matched. (For example, ,n
input on the LSB of glyph u
will match the RSB of the n
.)
Swap SBs
Make LSB = RSB
Center glyph
Make SBs equal (Set width may change ± 1)
Make RSB = LSB
Contract both SBs
equally by that increment.
Expand both SBs
equally by that increment.
