Description

TrueType fonts can receive automatic hinting through Python build scripts. This wrapper lets font tooling call ttfautohint so glyphs render more consistently on screens that rely on font hints.

It is a library for font developers and packaging pipelines rather than a visual editor. Generated font files may replace existing outputs, so automated builds should keep source and destination paths clear.
