There seems to be an issue with Nanum Myeongjo in google slides. It has added large spaces between words. It is a font we use in our google suite across the business and is causing quite a few problems. Can you please look into this?

I suspect this is because the advanceWidth of space is different to the non-breaking space character, or, its just wide to suit the primary script of Korean and a locl feature like in Agbalumo to make different space characters for different scripts could help.

@chrissimpkins I suggest we tack this on to the end of @aaronbell 's project list and see where his current commission winds up.

It appears that the Nanum Myeongjo space is set to 1024, when it was set to 307 in the original font (that I downloaded from Nanum's website). Not sure why. I think we can potentially just hotfix the files since there isn't a specific repository that we're pulling from?

I see this issue too on our sites that use this font, completely messes things up.

+1, has anyone figured out a way to get the old hotfixed woff2 file in the interim?

#9136 fixes it btw, using the ttf files from the pr as a temporary workaround

Please apply the hotfix so Google Fonts uses it!
