How to increase the maximum height of a glyph?
This time, I brought some prints to explain what I mean by that. My font has accented letters, but if I put an accent like this, it will collide with the previous line's letters.
And since it's based on the medieval chancery script, the letters may descend way lower than modern letters. As an example, I'm showing you the letters p, q, x, w, y, z and ç.
So I'm searching for a way so that letters do not collide, making it easier to read. I tried increasing ascending and descending height on font info, but it didn't work properly. Is there any way to help me with this?
EDIT: I discovered what the problem actually was: FontForge was scaling my glyph so it could maintain the same size as before. I just needed to use CTRL A + CTRL Z to get them in their previous size, but with the new maximum height. Thank you for everything.
