Descender and ascender issues

[diegomath]

Hi,
I loved this font family. I'm trying to use it in a web interface but I found something frustrating. Descender and ascender lines are too different. It will be so difficult to make the handoff to developers.

There are too much space in acender line, making labels difficult to centralize in html.

I hope you could fix it soon,

Congrats and regards,

Diego

Exactly my thoughts and experience. I love this font but it sits way too low inside its block. Therefore, it appears visually off and can't be used.

@diegomath @djmtype Hi guys, thank you for considering beVietnam for your design.
Our design team did notice about this strange error and have been working to resolve it, I believe the upcoming release will fix this issue, as well as fixing some other issues like letterform & kerning.

I'm revisiting this issue. It's been awhile. First off. There's nothing wrong with this font. It seems like the issue is with Google's fonts metrics. I'm not a typeface designer, so I don't know what the right tech terms here. Anyway, the line-height was off in every app (like Figma and Sketch) and website.

I had the same issue with Prodigy Sans. Because of its license, I was able to run it through the FontSquirrel.com generator with custom settings, then choosing "Auto-Adjust Vertical Metrics." That "fixed" Prodigy Sans. I tried the same settings with BeVietnam, however, the x-height still sits vertically off-center on the baseline. The way to "fix" this is by playing with the vertical metrics. Although, I don't know the magic offset numbers for ascender and descender in this case.

I think they are based on the Em Square value? If that's the case, what is the EM square value for this particular typeface?
