Happy accidents of the day while working on Pescante: breakdancing "u" and rotating "v" :---) #pescante #tuneratypefoundry #variablefont #typedesign #typography

Here you go @monokrom.
And thanks, it is a fun puzzle indeed.

This update has been rightfully requested a loooooong time ago by @haraldpeter.

Might still take a while to flatten everything, add kerning and make sure the replacement works everywhere.
But tricky letters are resolved now.

Typesetting a font specimen for a #VariableFont with #TeXLaTeX is one of the last adventures apparently ;)
But I got it working now. luaotfload seems to be buggy, but set to render the fonts with #HarfBuzz it seems to work.

#Solare is a grotesque #typeface published by @NikolasType, the Cologne-based type foundry of Nikolas Wrobel. Released in January 2024, its name is derived from the Italian words for sun and #solarenergy.

Also available as a #variablefont, its versatility makes it ideal for web design, #branding, #advertising and editorial #design.

An update for LTR Very Bauble! The original characterset was a bit sparse, so I added, oh, let's see, an asterism, at, sterling, questiondown, Eacute, Ohungarumlaut, Icircumflex, Scommaaccent, Lslash, Adieresis.alt and, let's see, about 2500 more of their friends! All animated with lines, thorns and pips. One axis, five masters. These letters were already having a party and now they are having a ball, waving their new flag and banners. #ad #update #tuscan #variablefont https://letterror.com/verybauble/index.html

It's fixed in more recent Linux distros. I usually use Debian for testing, which is known for its vintage versions ;) #gnome #kde #fonts #linux #VariableFont

It also happens in LibreOffice on Gnome with the Bold weight. I don't even have the slightest idea how to debug this. #gnome #kde #fonts #linux #VariableFont

Any idea why a variable font with weight (wght) and descender (YTDE) axes would show the short descender when I select the Light instead of the (default) Regular weight in KDE Konsole? #kde #fonts #linux #VariableFont

Trying to do a css only proximity hover effect with variable fonts.

I was nearly there and only than understood, that without javascript my variable font is not loading.
