chrissimpkins commented 1 year ago

Can we please document what we are waiting on to complete the onboarding of this family update?

RosaWagner commented 1 year ago

We are waiting corrections on the italic styles. I sent an email to the designer to know the status.

RosaWagner commented 1 year ago

Designer answered that he couldn't address the correction until now, will try to deliver in June

chrissimpkins commented 1 year ago

I spoke with Rosalie and Octavio. We've commissioned Octavio to work on another high priority project and will push his Lexend italic revisions and our onboarding back to Q3.

davelab6 commented 9 months ago

Per our meeting today I've moved this to Q2 so @octaviopardo has time to focus on another large project :)

chrissimpkins commented 7 months ago

@octaviopardo how does the timing look on this? Something that you still plan to do in Q2?

octaviopardo commented 7 months ago

Yes! Already looking at it

vv-monsalve commented 7 months ago

Job on this project has been resumed with an updated goal that will include both the original instances + Octavio's work on spacing. The Italics addition is already part of that endeavor.

arjpar commented 6 months ago

Will the Italics be true italics or obliques?

chrissimpkins commented 6 months ago

Moving the onboarding of these updates back to Q3.

davelab6 commented 6 months ago

Will the Italics be true italics or obliques?

True :)

arjpar commented 3 months ago

I'm looking forward to this! I can help in any way I can, if needed.

ffrancoa commented 2 months ago

Please implement it soon. It has been more than two years :'(

apastuszak commented 1 month ago

Any updates on this? Once there is an italic, I would approach Amazon to add this to the Kindle.

vv-monsalve commented 1 month ago

The designers are working on #3203 changes first. Once that one is solved, the Italics addition will be next.

arjpar commented 1 month ago

@vv-monsalve Is the work being done in the open? Is there a repository we can see to track the changes (where the work is)? I saw Octavio's repository that was updated a few weeks ago. Is it that one?
