Effra CC Variable incorrect x-height

Hello!

I am currently working on a project that uses the font Effra CC Variable

When importing the font into our project using typekit, the font has 20% leading at the bottom of the font instead of distributing it equally as `line-height` does. This is confirmed by brining the font into illustrator - the leading at the bottom is set to auto. Programs like Figma and Illustractor are able to remove this leading (Figma removes it automatically), but it cannot be done on the web via typekit.

However, the original font created by Dalton Maag does not have the high x-height. On web projects, this is causing issues with centering within buttons, etc.

Solutions attempted:

• `Line-height` has no effect on the bottom 20%, as any additional line height just gets added to the spacing already present.
• Setting a `descent-override` --  because we are importing with typekit, we cannot set a `descent-override` in the `@font-face`. Furthermore, this solution is not supported in Safari.
• Creating solutions on a case-by-case basis -- This is the current solution, but if it ever gets fixed, we will have to go back and fix accordingly.

Questions:

1. Can the font be adjusted to match the original source?
2. If one cannot be done, Is there a way to adjust the x-height for the web?
