If you think a check is flawed or have an idea for a check, please file an issue at https://github.com/fonttools/fontbakery/issues and remember to include a pointer to the repo and branch you're checking.
DEPRECATION WARNING
By late-December 2024, FontBakery version 0.13.0 introduced a new naming scheme for the check-IDs.
Fontbakery detected usage of old IDs and performed an automatic backwards-compatibility translation for you.
This automatic translation will be deprecated in the next major release.
Please start using the new check-IDs as documented at /Lib/fontbakery/legacy_checkids.py
The following legacy check-IDs were detected:
- com.google.fonts/check/outline_jaggy_segments
- com.google.fonts/check/outline_short_segments
- com.google.fonts/check/version_bump
- com.google.fonts/check/outline_semi_vertical
- com.google.fonts/check/fontdata_namecheck
- com.google.fonts/check/outline_alignment_miss
- com.google.fonts/check/ttx_roundtrip
- com.google.fonts/check/outline_colinear_vectors
Summary
💥 ERROR | ☠ FATAL | 🔥 FAIL | ⚠️ WARN | ⏩ SKIP | ℹ️ INFO | ✅ PASS |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
2 | 0 | 3 | 9 | 52 | 8 | 164 |
1% | 0% | 1% | 4% | 22% | 3% | 69% |
Meaning of check results:
- 💥 An ERROR is something wrong with FontBakery itself, possibly a bug.
- ☠ A FATAL is an extremely severe issue that must be addressed immediately.
- 🔥 A FAIL is a problem with the font that must be fixed.
- ⚠️ A WARN is something that you should consider addressing.
- ℹ️ An INFO result simply prints something useful. Typically stats.
- ✅ A PASS means the font looks good for the given checking routine.
- ⏩ And a SKIP happens when the check does not apply to the given font.
If you get ERRORs, please help us improve the tool by reporting them at our issue tracker.
(but other kinds of bug reports and/or feature requests are also always welcome, of course!)

Universal Profile Checks
🔥⚠️⚠️⚠️⏩⏩⏩⏩⏩⏩⏩⏩⏩⏩⏩⏩⏩⏩⏩⏩⏩ℹ️ℹ️
EXPERIMENTAL CHECK - Since 2024/12/28
Check base characters have non-zero advance width.
🔥 Alata-Regular.ttf
-
🔥 FAIL
The following glyphs had zero advance width: - uni0326.1 (U+F6C3)
[code: zero-width-bases]
Check if each glyph has the recommended amount of contours.
⚠️ Alata-Regular.ttf
-
⚠️ WARN
This check inspects the glyph outlines and detects the total number of contours in each of them. The expected values are infered from the typical ammounts of contours observed in a large collection of reference font families. The divergences listed below may simply indicate a significantly different design on some of your glyphs. On the other hand, some of these may flag actual bugs in the font such as glyphs mapped to an incorrect codepoint. Please consider reviewing the design and codepoint assignment of these to make sure they are correct.
The following glyphs do not have the recommended number of contours:
[code: contour-count]- Glyph name: uni0228 Contours detected: 2 Expected: 1 - Glyph name: uni0229 Contours detected: 3 Expected: 2 - Glyph name: uni1E08 Contours detected: 3 Expected: 2 - Glyph name: uni1E09 Contours detected: 3 Expected: 2 - Glyph name: uni1E1C Contours detected: 3 Expected: 2 - Glyph name: uni1E1D Contours detected: 4 Expected: 3 - Glyph name: uni0228 Contours detected: 2 Expected: 1 - Glyph name: uni0229 Contours detected: 3 Expected: 2 - Glyph name: uni1E08 Contours detected: 3 Expected: 2 - Glyph name: uni1E09 Contours detected: 3 Expected: 2 - Glyph name: uni1E1C Contours detected: 3 Expected: 2 - Glyph name: uni1E1D Contours detected: 4 Expected: 3
Check math signs have the same width.
⚠️ Alata-Regular.ttf

The most common width is 646 among a set of 5 math glyphs. The following math glyphs have a different width, though:
Width = 647: plus, plusminus
Width = 555: equal, notequal, divide
Width = 828: logicalnot
Width = 569: minus
Width = 554: approxequal
