Optimize
With the Optimize action FontLab tries to automatically adjust the outline
to remove unnecessary elements and correct others.
With the action options you can control the optimization process:
Outline
Simplification
level
Controls the curve removal feature, from “do not simplify
outline” to “extreme”. The bigger value you choose the more
curves FontLab will try to remove/smooth.
Auto-alignment
level
Controls the auto-alignment feature in a range from “do not
align” to “extreme”.
Auto-alignment automatically corrects relative position of lines and curves,
for example, if two adjacent curves are almost smoothly connected, but not
precisely, auto-alignment will correct that.
