FontForge: Set Vertical Metrics
───────────────────────────────
Follows the Google Fonts vertical-metrics methodology:
• OS/2 Typo → controls line spacing (with USE_TYPO_METRICS / fsSelection bit 7)
• OS/2 Win → clipping boundary on Windows (must cover every glyph)
• hhea → line spacing + clipping on macOS/iOS
Run inside FontForge (File → Execute Script → paste, or fontforge -script).
