    Today I finished this new font.

    I am thinking about focusing on making more fonts because it is so much fun. What type of fonts are you looking for, and what features do you need?

    • Have you tried doing any SVG fonts?Gnash
    • < nice one, btwGnash
    • I still prefer vector over bitmap fonts somehow...stewart
    • Something weird on first e and ri_was
    • But please tell me, what sort of SVG font would fit your needs?stewart
    • Beautiful. The lowercase r might need some work to differentiate from the nmonospaced
    • very coolSlashPeckham
    • Nice! modular, variable fonts are what I need more of. I love this though, reminds me of the stuff Flat It puts out.ben_
    • Variable fonts, good one!stewart
    • ^ this. As far as SVG fonts, for me they are display, one-offs. Variable more usefulGnash
    • Beautiful work. I don't see an issue with r/n it's legible for me.monNom
    • Ya, r/n are fineGnash
    • the r/n are totally fine, how is the r handled when there's no obvious ligature to be connected?ben_
    • Ben, there is a contextual alternate r for combinations that do not 'connect'.stewart
    • Lovely, really nice work! :)pedromendez
    • @stewart - figured, and figure it's different from the "n" can't wait to see it keyable.ben_
    • sorry I said anything about it :)monospaced
    • i likey.utopian
    • tried making a font last year. It's so much harder than I imagined. There are so many combinations and consistency issues to consider.CyBrainX
    • It was fun learning how to make it but looking back on it, my font sucks and I've never used it again.CyBrainX
    • /\ Yeah it's a real slog if you want to make something that works for anything other than headlines and small blocks of type where hand-setting isn't an issue.ben_
