Hello again,

I want to copy a font’s foreground layer to another font ‘new’ layer (equivalent to FontLab ‘assign font mask’). Is there a way to do that ?

here is an excerpt of my script:

 		 print "Source Font:", sourceFont
		 print "Target Font:", targetFont
		 print "New Layer Name:", self.layerName
		 
		 #get the first glyph's name
		 firstGlyphName = targetFont.keys()[0]
		 #create a new layer with specified layerName
		 targetFont[firstGlyphName].getLayer(self.layerName)
		 #parse the target font's glyphs
		 for gT in targetFont:
		 	#parse the source font's glyphs
		 	for gS in sourceFont:
		 		#if they names match, I want the targetLayer to be a copy of the sourceLayer
		 		if gT.name == gS.name:
		 			sourceLayer = gS.getLayer("foreground")
		 			targetLayer = gT.getLayer(self.layerName)
		 			#clear contours if any
		 			targetLayer.clearContours()
		 			# HOW CAN I COPY THE SOURCE LAYER OF A FONT TO A TARGET LAYER OF ANOTHER FONT ??
