Hi,
Cool work Kelvin.
There are some fixes that would make the glyphs better:
1. The following have unmerged outlines, removing overlap would be better
uni0255, uni0256, uni025A, uni025D, uni025F, uni0260, uni0268, uni026B, uni02C6, uni026E, uni0275,
uni0284, uni0287, uni0289, uni028F, uni0290, uni0291, uni0292, uni0293, uni029B, uni02A1, uni02A2,
uni02A3, uni02A4, uni02A5, uni02A6, uni02A7, uni02A8, uni02AA, uni02AB, uni02AC
2. The following have missing extreme points
uni025B, uni025C, uni025D, uni025E, uni0284, uni0297, uni029A
# Actually those 2 first issues are easy to detect if you validate your font in FontForge.
3. uni0263 should have top serifs like v, it is too much like the Greek gamma otherwise.
4. The following have descenders in first half of ligature when they should not
uni026E, uni02A4
5. The loop of uni0286, uni029D shouldn't have a serif
6. The bottom two extreme points of uni028A should not be interpolatable (in FontForge: Point > Can't be interpolated)
Cheers,

Hi, I've added a bunch of IPA letters to the Liberation Serif font.
That's great.Here's a picture of them:IPA letters are more than just mirror versions of regular latin letters, so I tried to make them "real", following the serif rules, etc. For example the /ɹ/ letter has only one serif on top, and the crossbar on /ə/ is at the same height as the one on /e/. I've only done the Regular weight, but if you're interested I can do italic, bold, etc.Yeah.
Since Liberation serif family providing 4 weights we should apply changes in other weights as well. Do providing me Italic, Bold and Bold Italic is required.
The TTF and SFD source are attached. It's very rough—the letter outlines aren't fused (to make editing easier), and there might be some clockwise/counterclockwise errors. The letters displayed fine in Inkscape though.I will remove error if there any before merging.
In between for this work you can refer to Liberation fonts version 2.00.1 it has IPA characters available but we cant add it to Liberation 1.07.2 because of license incompatibilities.
Or may be try using Liberation 2.00.1 instead... https://fedorahosted.org/liberation-fonts/I hope so you are aware regarding Liberation fonts license. And you are ready to submit your work under https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Licensing:LiberationFontLicense?rd=Licensing/LiberationFontLicense this license?
Best Regards,
Pravin Satpute
