Does anyone know what the suffixes "B5pc-H" mean in Noto Sans CJK? For example: NotoSansCJKtc-Bold-B5pc-H

I know that "tc" in the family name is for Traditional Chinese. Perhaps "-H" is for Horizontal typesetting? What is B5pc?

This is showing up as a missing font in a branding document. I want to point the person to the correct place to download the missing fonts. When I download from https://fonts.google.com/noto/specimen/Noto+Sans+TC I don't see "CJK" in the font family name and I don't see any suffixes. Any ideas?

I’ve been deep in the matrix of animating variable fonts in AfterEffect this week and for the time being it mostly makes sense to me. I’m going to savor this moment while it lasts because I’m pretty sure I’ll have no idea what any of this means next time I open these files. Time for me to start making Memento style notes to my future amnesiac self 😵‍💫

For anyone else interested, I followed this tutorial https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aWZUS59HVsQ where they animate Obviously by @ohno at least they have good taste

May 10th 2016, 10 years ago today, was a big day for variable fonts. I was in Berlin at TypoLabs and I saw this talk called “OpenType GH: Bringing font variations to OpenType” where @behdad showed the first public demo of what would later be called (OpenType 1.8) Variable Fonts.

I had heard these were in development, but seeing the demo live made me feel confident that this would soon become a reality

Does anyone here have a video of this talk? The link here is dead:

Here's a flyer I made for a show tonight in Tokyo, using a few style from my typeface Counterpress 🍏

I really like the latest album by Jack Name, especially the closing track: https://jackname.bandcamp.com/track/the-devil-comes-inside
