Latvian translation issue #95

Closed reversedfate closed 5 years ago

reversedfate commented 5 years ago

Current font which is used throughout the site 'FuturaHandwritten', does not support Latvian special symbols like ā, ē, ī, ū, š, č, ž, and so on, they appear in a default font which is visibly different.

I will try to find an alternative font, that supports these symbols, yet looks similiar, however is it ok to change font?

Some similar fonts I found that allow the required symbols: https://www.1001fonts.com/caveat-font.html https://www.1001fonts.com/minya-font.html https://www.1001fonts.com/architects-daughter-font.html https://www.1001fonts.com/annie-use-your-telescope-font.html

It's not the first time translators need to replace the font; just search for "font" on this issue tracker. Sadly, the author never responded to say if it's okay, but presumably it is, because they added translations to the main page.

We used Pangolin for Russian translation, by the way. Not sure if it supports the characters you need, though.

@Minoru Hi, sorry I've been swamped with work on other projects so I couldn't reply earlier! But, yes, it is okay to use other fonts – thanks for checking!

Thanks, the information was sufficient to solve the font problem.
