OTF Export will be greyed out if there's nothing on the glyphs pages that is valid for use in a font. It's not very clear in the Indyfont manual but the criteria seems to be:


Black fill, using only [Black] from the InDesign swatches (no other type of black)
Must have a fill. Outlines/strokes are ignored, only fills count
Not text (text within text... eep)
Must be on the (green) "Outline" layer


If the OTF Export button is greyed out, probably the artwork doesn't meet this criteria in some way.
