Autopsy is a Glyphs plugin for analyzing design consistency across multiple fonts.
It visualizes a selection of letters side by side and puts it into a PDF for visual comparison. If visual comparison isn’t enough for you, it dissects what’s there and what’s not and puts that into simple graphs.
Compare the design of glyphs across different fonts or families. Something you can’t do in FontLab without generating each font an loading them into some document.
Multiple Master fonts are not supported yet.

- Ported as much functionality as possible to the plugin APIs.
- Use a .nib for the interface. This removes the dependency to vanilla.
- use CoreGraphics to write the pdf. This remove the dependency to reportlab.
