Find a large block of text somewhere on the internet, perhaps a paragraph or two, and then apply your font to that block of text. If your font has spacing and kerning problem, you will likely find it there.
BTW HypoTypo used Lincoln's Gettysburg Address to show a preview of his font. You can also do that. You can even use your original post for that.
Hi thank you for the advice. I did what you told and stll i dont find the kerning issue. I guess it is on spacing issue? i am not really sure but maybe i will try to fix that and resubmit it.
Dear Dafon team, I just upload new font called Saned a week ago and today I receive email my font was rejected due to Spacing or kerning problem. I have already double checked the kerning and don't find the issue you mentioned. If you dont mind could you tell me exactly where the Spacing or kerning problem is? Thank you.

Hi could you change the font preview for EL MOLACO please? The current font preview doesn't show the "L" alternate. Thank you

Ok
Hi i uploaded new font last month "Amarieta" but i just found out that the multilingual is not correct (some part are missing). What should i do, resubmit it or wait for the approval? thanks
Rodolphe said 
This is not possible again, because at dafont the kerning doesn't work between the alternate S and the a (when typing them manually)
https://www.dafont.com/saveya.font?text=%26%2357414%3Baveya&psize=l
... but what you can do is to make a special glyph with what you'd like to be displayed (with automatic ligatures)
Many authors do that, for example
https://www.dafont.com/fr/yes-free.charmap
as you can see he designed the preview in the last glyph (U+E000) which is automatically displayed at dafont
PS. We validate this kind of thing only when it is not misleading for the users (when the separated glyphs exist alone, like in this font < and > for example)
Hi thank you for the advice, i already update the file for Saveya and EL MOLACO, and also update file & link for Ahganirya & La Gagliane font to be directed to my website. I am waiting them to be published, once again thank you for your help really appreciate it

I don't understand, what's the problem with Qarkine (the preview is like on your image)
apologize for the confusion, the difference is mine using "k" as alternate and dafont preview using"ki" as ligature

I thought it was based on the upload date, understood. And more thing could you do me a favor by changing the Qarkine preview font to be similar to my Qarkine image font? so much appreciate for your help
Rodolphe said

Dear Dafont, thank you for approving my font Okaluera but could you change the font preview to be similar to my preview image?

The old school way that I set ascenders and descenders:
For the glyph frame which has the highest ascender, and the one with the lowest descender, I move the top and bottom bearings to the highest and lowest positions, then I create a tiny contour in the upper or lower corner where that X Axis position intersects with the Y Axis position for the right or left side bearing. I save the project file, then delete the tiny contours, and save again. To me, that's easier than calculating a numeric value.
Thanks for the advice, really appreciate it!
