The latest version of the extension as offered through Mechanic 2 requires RoboFont 3.2, which is beta software. While I’m not particularly afraid of beta software, I think the Batch extension has been with us for many versions of RF – unless the latest bug fixes truly require the latest beta of RF, I think that it should be available to us using release versions.

Whether Mechanic 2 should show version requirements in the layout is an issue that I maybe should open in the appropriate repository as well…

I understand this is confusing, but the dev rate of fontTools if faster then RF for the moment. Batch already wants to keep track of the current tools fontTools offers....

Ive made a release available for older versions of RF https://github.com/typemytype/batchRoboFontExtension/releases

RF3.2 will be release very soon

thanks
