What is a .FEA file?
A .FEA file is a type of data file that is often used inside .UFO files to hold important information about fonts. This file contains specific settings and instructions for fonts, which are created using the Adobe Font Development Kit for OpenType, also known as AFDKO. These settings can include details about different languages the font supports, how letters should be linked together in a word (ligatures), the spacing between characters (kerning), and the shapes of the letters (contours and cursive aspects).
The .FEA file is written in plain text, which means you can read and edit it using any basic text editor like Notepad or TextEdit. However, it is usually managed within font editing software.
Programs that can open .FEA files include: - FontForge - Glyphs - RoboFont These files are typically part of a larger set of files in a .UFO (Unified Font Object) file, which may also include .PLIST (property list files), .GLIF (glyph files), and .PNG (image files). It's important not to remove .FEA files from their .UFO containers because they contain essential data for the font. When you open a .UFO file in a program like FontForge, RoboFont, or Glyphs, the .FEA file is accessed to use the font features defined within it. If you just want to look at the contents of a .FEA file, you can open it in a text editor since it's just plain text.
