Shorter cv08, handwriting style #72

Closed stevemolitor closed 5 months ago

stevemolitor commented 7 months ago

I love this font! It took me some fiddling to get the smart kerning to work with Emacs, but I got that working and now it's my new favorite font. Very readable, and looks great without calling attention to itself.

I like the "cv08: Alt. italic 'aefgy'" feature. It helps make italics stand out a bit.

The cv08 "f" is very long-legged though. It sticks out - not "anonymous" at all! Would it be possible to shorten the "f" in cv08?

Also, a handwriting or script variant would be super cool.

Maybe if instead of jutting down the f leg curved to the left at the bottom it would soften the effect and be consistent with the curvy tails of the g and y.

Good ideas, I will add this to the next release!

Hi sorry for the delayed response. I was on my honeymoon and wasn’t thinking much about fonts :) .The curvey f looks great! Thanks so much!The smart kerning seems even nicer now as well. SteveOn Dec 28, 2023, at 3:14 AM, Eigil Nikolajsen @.***> wrote: I have added a curve legged italic f in the latest release tell me what you think @stevemolitor
