Abstract
Methods and apparatus that process a front-end editable text file—a feature file—that specifies features for a font, and in particular to an OpenType™ font. The specified features are parsed and stored in the font as font data. The feature file contains simple logic statements for the specification of various typographical features, such as layout features, expressed in a high-level feature definition language. The feature file may contain override values for fields in font tables. The feature file can be processed in combination with an existing font file to establish an enhanced font file.
