What would say happened (outstandingly) in the world of type design and font engineering in 2024? What would you remember from last year? What would you say to someone who was in a professional coma for a year for example?
@rosaliewagner VariableComposites, avar2, and other new font technology made significant progress in the ISO standardization pipeline. Fingers crossed, they will become part of the standard this year.
@behdad thanks! avar2 I see, @lorp must be thrilled too! Variable composites though, I could confuse with something else, do you have link to a documentation?
@rosaliewagner VariableComposites is basically the Glyphs "Smart Components" model, encoded in the font.
