Type 1 Standard Stems
Standard stem widths are also controlled through the Alignment page of
the Font Info dialog box. To edit standard stems open the Font Info dialog
box and select the Alignment page.
There are controls for both vertical and horizontal standard stem widths.
All available horizontal stems appear in the horizontal lists. You can select
any stem just as you would in normal, vertical list controls.
To add a stem to the list of the standard stems press
at the right
side of the stems' list.
To edit a standard stem width, select it using the left mouse button
and edit its value in the edit field to the right of the list.
To remove a stem from the list, select it and press the
button.
Note that FontLab will sort stem widths starting from the second in
ascending order when you close the Font Info dialog box.
ForceBold – when this option is switched on, Type 1 rendering algorithm
makes the font looking “bold”
