#variablefont — Public Fediverse posts

Datatype is a new OpenType font that allows you to create charts based on text expressions.

Unlike Chartwell, it is a variable font. It (currently) offers three chart types and handles pie charts slightly differently than Chartwell. I think it’s an interesting approach.

Datatype is open source under the SIL Open Font License. Designed by Frank Tisellano.

A variable font with weight and serif axes :)
(Isn’t it remarkable that when you just slap some serifs on a narrow monolinear font, it instantly gives off Officina vibes?)
