Lining figures #5

Closed reaganch closed 7 years ago

reaganch commented 7 years ago

I was looking to use the version of the font with lining figures, but the OTF files I downloaded from the "releases" section seems to contain only oldstyle figures. I'm uncertain whether I could/should build them somehow using your source files, but any help would much appreciated.

Just figured out how to choose lining figures on the web by modifying the CSS property. Still unsure how to choose lining figures when using the font in word processing software like Libreoffice Writer, for instance.

I don’t know about specific applications. The figures are available under OpenType variation selectors (features onum and lnum) which is where your browser’s CSS renderer picks it up from.
