An incomplete list, without order, which needs to be replicated three more times: once with the caps (of which the uniXXXX names are, obviously, different), one with .c2sc and once with .smcp (and those sets might be matching, but I can’t tell for sure).</p> <p>One way FontLab could make my life easier is to automatically make classes of all glyphs that are known to be caps, lowercase, and classes for all appendices (like .smcp and .case). Also, wouldn’t it be great to batch rename all my .cap glyphs to the more logical .case? I think so.</p>http://typetypetypetype.tumblr.com/post/6449163837http://typetypetypetype.tumblr.com/post/6449163837Sun, 12 Jun 2011 12:28:26 +0200fontlabwoesopentypeAnother phase.<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lcpzq3Dnde1qa9bd6o1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>Another phase.</p>http://typetypetypetype.tumblr.com/post/2052630722http://typetypetypetype.tumblr.com/post/2052630722Tue, 30 Nov 2010 23:56:00 +0100antikvaitalicwork in progressTaken from this set of phrases, as blogged about by Aegir.<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lbvnm0MjNU1qa9bd6o1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>Taken from <a href="http://thecopyhouse.net/blog/2010/11/tone-of-voice-moodboard/">this set of phrases</a>, as blogged about by <a href="http://ministryoftype.co.uk/">Aegir</a>.</p>http://typetypetypetype.tumblr.com/post/1571921557http://typetypetypetype.tumblr.com/post/1571921557Sun, 14 Nov 2010 14:46:48 +0100graduationantikvatextA small collection of my typefaces, as prepared for a booklet...<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_l7lspmzPIZ1qa9bd6o1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>A small collection of my typefaces, as prepared for a booklet I’m printing.</p>http://typetypetypetype.tumblr.com/post/997824695http://typetypetypetype.tumblr.com/post/997824695Mon, 23 Aug 2010 13:46:34 +0200specimenWorking on the Antikva some more.
