Description of problem: Most glyphs have a point with the same coordinates as the first point. This extraneous point is useless and creates self intersecting points, which should be avoided. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.4.5
Thanks for reporting bug. Can you submit patch as well against trunk?
Created attachment 497905 [details] patch to remove self intersecting paths I corrected self intersecting glyphs using FontForge's "remove overlap" function. I had to "simplify" u0938_u094D.half before removing overlapping.
Hi Bernard, i gone through your patch, its very useful -> https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=497905&action=diff It is removing double points like as below 1068 306 -220 l 1,14,-1 1069 306 -220 l 1,0,1 i tried to apply patch on lohit-devanagari but its look like patch: **** malformed patch at line 341: @@ -1304,7 +1282,6 @@ can you please attach Devanagari sfd file, so i can try it.
i can see some more things in patch other than just removing self intersecting. how did you worked on this?

Also FontForge keeps some extra info like window size, currently open glyph, etc. I may have done some minor corrections as well, like removing overlap in glyph actually made of two paths (ie. not just only with first and last points overlapping). I don't remember exactly.
steps for creating patch : 1) keep copy of "original source" and "modified source" 2) $diff -rup "original source" "modified source" > "patch-name" 3) vi "patch-name" I will test sfd by tomorrow. yesterday while checking changes i found it good.
