    Default Re: Can I add/edit one character in the Font yanone kaffesatz?

    I knew what I thought he meant, Frank.

    Or did I?



    See my previous post. I copied the caron component itself from the s caron characters.

    ...and what's wrong with being anal?

    Yanone is also missing r-caron and R-caron, so I added them as well, plus the unicode mappings, and tested in Xara

    nothing wrong with being anal on occasion i guess but all the time would be pretty intensely insufferable

    Big Frank—

    I just practiced being anal a moment ago.

    I removed your finished truetype font as an attachment because no one has permission from the creator of the typeface to modify and distribute it.

    I have your file and will be happy to post it for you the moment urednik and/or Yanone posts approval to edit and redistribute the typeface.

    This has very little to do with TalkGraphics' policy, except that it conforms to good web practice for respecting creator copyrights.

    The only reason I posted the VFB file, which is not a typeface file but instead a resource, a project file (you can't load and use it in Windows)—was for anyone with a good font editor to find the character slots for the new glyphs.

    I'm not picking on you Frank, or admonishing you. I'm just being a Moderator, being just a little anal in the CYA sense, and the only time you might not want your backside watched is in the shower.

    I looked at your work on the typeface, and it's meticulous, Frank.

    The registers are correct and you went the extra mile with the additional carot characters.

    You really should get paid for your effort.

    I hope that urednik or Yanone kaffesatz replies ASAP with an approval/permission.

    His Twitter account is https://twitter.com/yanone, if anyone would like to tweet him and ask (again).

    My Best,

    Gary
