Generating a Single-Master Font
You can create a regular single master font from an instance of a Multiple
Master font using FontLab. Use the Tools > Multiple Master > Generate
Instance command to open the Generate Instance dialog box:
Use the controls to select the intermediate (or extrapolated) design. The
Edit controls have a white background when the selection is within the
dynamic range and a yellow background when extrapolation is used. The
white background under the scroll bars visually represents the font’s
dynamic range. Using the keyboard you can enter values into the editing
fields that are even beyond the scroll bar range.
Click OK and FontLab will generate a single-master font and open it in a
new Font Window.
