I am looking for some ready to use metrics and kerning classes text files. Do you know where I can find some ?
You're on your own wih metrics: good metrics are the most important thing when designing a typeface (in my opinion.)
But, I have posted one of my class-based OpenType kern features here: http://vllg.com/files/OpenType_kerning/
I hope this is helpful to you.

thanks guys :) I guess I will have to create my own spacing assistance file :)
Hi Docunagi Here is a link to Leslie Cabarga's Kern King. A list of words and letters very useful for spacing and kerning your font.
