@sbarolo is there any way of including some punctuation? specifically question marks, exclamation marks, and ampersands? when i’m choosing a font, i usually check to see how the designer handles these (if at all).

@andrea_smandrea @sbarolo I always want to see the similar-looking pairs, lI and O0 come to mind

@sbarolo i don't like how that capital F looks on that serif

@sbarolo Interesting result. Everything about who I am would lead me to believe that I would prefer things streamlined and neat, so no serifs... but I had to be honest: the serif font was easier to read.
