I think it's fine for it to be offset; Myles said he did this so that it would not be possible to incorrectly rotate it 180deg. We just need to make sure that the glyph edges fall on 1/5th-em (or at the very least, 1/10th-em) boundaries. > You wrote: >> The name of the font is still Ahem, so it probably isn’t possible to install both >> this font and the old font at the same time. > > Indeed, it is not possible to install both this font and the old > font at the same time.

The intent was just to update Ahem; this would be version 4. I think it's fine. :) > You wrote: >> For the vertical and horizontal stripes, I purposely placed them >> off-center so you could tell if the glyph is rotated 180°. > > If vertical stripe glyph and horizontal stripe glyph are not centered, > then I still may not be able to verify if 'text-orientation: mixed' > glyphs are centrally baseline-aligned.
