Ah yes, the ornate serifs and ball terminals of Helvetica, made with hand and brush, promoted lovingly by the PR team at Monotype and rigorously verified by the editors at Print.

Exactly a week ago we welcomed people from around the world to the Third Fontstand conference, and it was great. #FontstandCon2022

Type request: if anyone has typeface advertisements from 1990s to 2010s which state the price of fonts (magazines, web screenshots etc) please DM them to me. Thanks.

The #FonstandCon2022 is sold out, however, if you missed the ticket and still would like to attend, sign up for the waiting list. There may be some cancellations, or a possibility of increasing the max capacity of the venue.

New release: Pratico. A single VF with 24 pre-built instances and matching italics. BTW @R_Typography we stole your idea for naming instances♥️. dstype.com/article/pratico/

While the Nebiolo foundry from Turin in Italy may no longer be casting type, the @nebiolohistory project is diving deep into over a century of the company’s history. Read what they are up to over on Fontstand News: fontstand.com/news/essays/un…

Wasted the morning on a proof-of-concept variable font whose Optical Size axis will FIGHT YOU if you try to use it above the 15pt target size 😤

Com a divulgação das sondagens aumenta a pressão para o voto útil, e vale a pena ter esta conversa: o voto no @LIVREpt é o que mais garantidamente se opõe a um governo de direita e o que mais contribui para uma política progressista em Portugal.

We finally settled on 11.4pt Flecha Text Regular, rather than the 11.25pt that was clearly way too small, or the huge 11.5pt. #bigdecisions

In the first example (1947), waters are distinguished by left-leaning styles. In the second one (1954), rivers are shown in an upright – or slightly left-leaning – italic (with city names in italic).
