• String
• Integer/Float
• Coordinate
• Angle
• Identifier
• Color
• Transformation Matrix
• Immutable List

String

Unicode (unencoded) or string. Internally everything is a unicode string.

Integer/Float

Integers and floats are interchangable in FontParts (unless the specification states that only one is allowed).

Coordinate

An immutable iterable containing two Integer/Float representing:

1. x
2. y

Angle

Define the angle specifications here. Direction, degrees, etc. This will always be a float.

Identifier

A String following the UFO identifier conventions.

Color

An immutable iterable containing four Integer/Float representing:

1. red
2. green
3. blue
4. alpha

Values are from 0 to 1.0.

Transformation Matrix

An immutable iterable defining a 2×2 transformation plus offset (aka Affine transform). The default is (1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0).

Immutable List

This must be an immutable, ordered iterable like a tuple.
