special italic glyphs? #1306

Open lsloan opened 2 years ago

Does this font support italics? If so, does it use different glyphs for some letters in their italic form? I hope it DOES NOT. Some fonts use different glyphs, claiming it to be helpful:

In both of those cases, I find it annoying that at some sizes and colors, the italic "a" looks too much like an "o". I would prefer the "a" to keep the shape shown on the left of those two examples.

This is probably related to #1266.
