Hi @muhac thanks for your work. Is there tutorial on how to make fonts? Really like the 'MonacoFiraNerd' font, but I want to replace MonacoB with origianl Monaco.

Hi @dabeibao

Is there tutorial on how to make fonts?

You'll need a font editor to do so. I used fontforge. There is a guide on their website which may help. Replacement is relatively simple :)

I want to replace MonacoB with original Monaco.

PR for a Light font is welcomed!

Though the author of MonacoB said that the font was 20% bolder, I don't see significant changes compared to Monaco. Maybe you can double check it in your code editor before you do real work on editing fonts.

Just read that readme again. I believe MonacoB is exactly the original Monaco. MonacoB Bold is the bolder one.

@muhac Thanks a lot! Will have a try!

Just read that readme again. I believe MonacoB is exactly the original Monaco. MonacoB Bold is the bolder one.

I carefully compared two versions. Yes they have same weight and should be the same font. The only difference is the original one (the first figure) has smaller gap.
