Small caps not working on Safari, working on Firefox #5

Closed jsilvela closed 3 years ago

Tested on Safari 14.0.2 on macOS Big Sur 11.1 (i.e. latest releases of both) And on the current Safari running on an up-to-date iPad. Using the woff files. With font-variant: small-caps; set in the CSS. The numbers and capitals are rendering properly, the small caps are smaller than they should in proportion. Looking fine on FireFox.

Also, Chrome seems to have problems with the lower caps. They seem smaller and thinner than they should.

Hi there. Thanks a lot, but I am not aware to have drawn any small caps for Gintronic. Could it be that Firefox ist just convincingly good at rendering fake small caps?

jsilvela commented 3 years ago

Oh, hahaha, that would explain that. With other fonts, the browsers didn't even try to render small caps. Just normal lower case letters. Since they tried with Gintronic, I jumped to conclusions. Thank you.

Nevermind, thanks for the hint though 🙂 Hope you like it nevertheless.
