All weights? #1

Closed davelab6 closed 9 years ago

davelab6 commented 9 years ago

If the glyphs file has a Regular and Extrabold master, why not interpolate all the intermediate weights? :)

philatype commented 9 years ago

Not sure what you mean. Are you suggesting more weights? The bold is already interpolated from the two masters.

davelab6 commented 9 years ago

I mean like this:

400 Regular 500 [Missing] 600 [Missing] 700 Bold 800 ExtraBold

philatype commented 9 years ago

Gotcha. My intent was to have just those three weights.

davelab6 commented 9 years ago

I'm curious why you intend this? :)

philatype commented 9 years ago

Aesthetic decision, really. I don't feel like it is necessary to add any additional weights between Regular and Extrabold. Maybe some day in the future, it could benefit from a Light/ExtraLight, but it is what it is right now.

I would love a light version of this font. I know I'm late to the conversation but I feel like this would extend the impact of Sen
