InterWWS.zip

The glyphs file contains some instances which don't have WWS-compatible names, and are marked as such:

Family Name: Inter
Style Name: Display Bold
WWS Family Name: Inter Display
WWS Style Name: Bold

Building static OTFs with this command, the WWS names are not written to the OTF nametables:

fontmake -g Inter-Roman.glyphs -o otf -i

They are also not in the instance UFOs generated by glyphsLib.

fontmake -g Inter-Roman.glyphs -o ufo -i
