# vttLib

A library to

1. Extract VTT hinting data from a OpenType font prepared with [Microsoft Visual TrueType (VTT)](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/typography/tools/vtt/) and store it in a [FontTools](https://github.com/fonttools/fonttools/) TTX dump
2. Merge it back from a TTX dump into an OpenType font and
3. Compile the data inside to font to ship it (turn `TSI*` tables into `fpgm`, etc.).

The primary use case is version control of hinting data of fonts.
