Not sure if I understood that correctly... do we make the decision depending on the platform, or do we remove the hinting data for all platforms just to improve the compression?
- igrigorik 14y agoPoor wording on my part. Font hinting meta data is removed for platforms that do not support it. Ex: windows does, and hinting data is retained for improved rendering.
