Variation selectors are normally between U+180B and U+180D U+FE00 and U+FE0F U+E0100 and U+E01EF did you really intend to use U+%04X?

Bad correction

The correction on line %d is too big. It must be between -128 and 127

Bad pixel size

The pixel size on line %d is out of bounds.

At small pixel sizes (screen font sizes) the rounding errors that occur may be extremely ugly. A device table allows you to specify adjustments to the rounded Every pixel size my have its own adjustment.

Alternate Unicode Encodings / Variation Selectors

Some glyphs may be used for more than one unicode code point -- I don't recommend doing this, better to use a reference -- but it is possible. The latin "A", the greek "Alpha" and the cyrillic "A" look very much the same. On the other hand certain Mongolian and CJK characters have multiple glyphs depending on a unicode Variation Selector. In the first case use a variation selector of 0, in the second use the appropriate codepoint.

Mark for Unlink, Remove Overlap Before Save

A few glyphs, like Aring, Ccedilla, Eogonek are composed of two overlapping references. Often it is desireable to retain the references (so that changes made to the base glyph are reflected in the composed glyph), but that means you are stuck with overlapping contours. This flag means that just before saving the font, fontforge will unlink the references, and run remove overlap on them, then just after saving it will undo the operation thereby retaining the references.

_Hide Unused Columns

Don't display columns of 0s. The OpenType lookup allows for up to 8 kinds of data, but almost all kerning lookups will use just one. Omitting the others makes the behavior clearer.

The height and depth fields are the metrics fields used by TeX, they are corrected for optical distortion. So 'x' and 'o' probably have the same height.
