Font metrics resources

[tompazourek]

I recently read a very insightful article by Vincent De Oliveira:

http://iamvdo.me/en/blog/css-font-metrics-line-height-and-vertical-align

In there, he mentions Font Forge and OpenType.js that can load interesting font metrics from a font file. That might a better way of getting various font data than measuring it by hand.

Thought you might be interested in that.

Yes, absolutely, thanks!
I also read this article and found it very interesting and helpful.
I want to combine ideas and tools from this article with ideas from @jedmao (he described similar font metrics).

I just published a database of font metrics for ~1500 fonts. This could prove useful for this library. @brandonkal/font-metrics-db
