From 5194e4f4740949a702981d65d01aaf1965d47242 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Rasmus Andersson Date: Sun, 7 Oct 2018 18:27:12 -0700 Subject: fontbuild: now generating three variable fonts: complete family with two axes, italic version with weight axis and upright version with weight axis. This allows supporting browsers like MS Edge which do not correctly map italic and oblique font style properties to slnt and ital axes. --- misc/dist/variable.txt | 9 +++++++++ 1 file changed, 9 insertions(+) (limited to 'misc/dist') diff --git a/misc/dist/variable.txt b/misc/dist/variable.txt index 78ac81974..c2a3b5cb2 100644 --- a/misc/dist/variable.txt +++ b/misc/dist/variable.txt @@ -1,6 +1,15 @@ Variable fonts is a new technology still undergoing development. +The directory named "Inter UI (TTF variable)" contains three files: + +- Inter-UI.var.ttf -- multi-axis complete family +- Inter-UI-italic.var.ttf -- italic-only with variable weight axis. +- Inter-UI-upright.var.ttf-- upright-only with variable weight axis. + +The "Inter UI (web)" directory contains WOFF2 versions of these same +font files. + Support for variable fonts is limited as of late 2018, but support is quickly arriving to web browsers, operating systems and design application. -- cgit v1.2.3
