Anyone knows of a #39C3 text generator, with fixed frames of those font-weight animation/gradients, that would output SVG or other format easily importable/editable in Inkscape?
(and not a weird MacOS thing, like the one recommended in the style guide, please!)

The Braille Institute has released an updated version of its Atkinson Hyperlegible font as well as a new Monospace variant! I'm using the font on this website, and just set it as my font for Terminal and VSCode!
You can get the font from brailleinstitute.org/freefont/ (https://www.brailleinstitute.org/freefont/)

@gaghyogi49 I love this #FontNerd work and #SciFi deep dive.
Could you link to this #Font as well? Is it an open license?

Cringing as I use a platform with unkempt and joyless UI spacing.
However well intentioned—switching fonts and colors in a Microsoft platform to fit an org’s brand NEVER ends well.
96% of the time, it ends very badly

@skullvalanche @spinning_bird @jake4480 Not to my knowledge, but you did just create them. #Fonts #FontNerd #Typography and apparently ... Oh #ForgeFed but is the #FontForgeFed?

***Font nerd alert**
I am looking for *non-monotype* fonts with tabular figures/numbers where the width of the minus symbol (u2212) exactly matches the width of the en quad (u2000) and the width of numbers. This is the case for example for Calibri/Carlito.
For such a font, these should line up perfectly:
−−−−−−−− 0.11111
8.88888
−−−−−−−−11.11111(the minus is a u2212 and the spaces are u2000, but not sure if this may get lost when posted here).

Just watched the trailer for the new Avatar movie. I just... can't get over the use of the Papyrus font, I'm sorry. It felt dated on the original movie but now it feels like I'm the only one who isn't in on a joke. Movie looked fine an' all, but let's focus on the important stuff here.
