Hello,

I'm trying to make a font with a negative line gap and I'm having some
trouble doing so.

I have tried setting the Typo/HHead line gaps to -256 and I have tried
setting the Typo/HHead Descent Offest to 256 ("Is Offset" is enabled), see
below images:

I'm grasping at straws here and I'm not sure if what I would like to achieve
is possible, so any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
TheScripts

You probably need to set line gaps to zero and descenders to smaller than
usual

You probably need to set line gaps to zero and descender much shorter
