Description

At current, four glyphs files have been provided (ExtraLight / Regular / Bold / ExtraBold). As GF prefers to ship variable fonts wherever possible, I tried merging these together but found that a vast majority of the glyphs are incompatible (~8304/9354). Would it be possible to get access to the original source format? Or to have these glyphs sources re-generated preserving master compatibility? That way we can build a variable font as desired.

Research direction

Review the four provided glyph files—ExtraLight, Regular, Bold, and ExtraBold—and the compatibility problem described in the issue. Confirm whether the repository contains original source assets or a regeneration workflow; done would mean obtaining or regenerating master-compatible sources suitable for building a variable font.
