Let’s go through and show you some samples of kerning

It remains to be seen if the kerning I added to this first line of my kerning doc will stand. I moved the am together for example, and that changes the letterspacing of the whole font. So, I need to fix this first attempt—starting by taking the “abnormal” pairs back to zero kerning.

This is better kerning because it leaves the normal letterspacing alone. As you can see it takes a little bit to get a feel for what needs to be done. This is different for each font — so there is no way I can tell you how to do it other than to be careful.

Now I have to go through the entire kerning document. As mentioned, it is better to do it all in one long session to help maintain consistency.
