OpenType Features
Our fonts are packed full of cool OpenType features for seasoned pros. These features allow more control and functionality over a typeface. Think ligatures, small caps, swashes, alternatives etc. OpenType features are easy to find and enable in the majority of popular design software however not all of them use the same method to do so. Here's a few ways you can find them in some popular programmes.
InDesign
Illustrator
Photoshop
Figma
Web CSS

Resources
There’s a lot of great type design material out there, but it’s not always easy to find it all in one place. I’ve gathered some of my go-to resources and references in the hope it’ll be of help to others. If you have any good suggestions, I’d be happy to include them!

Variable Fonts
Along with the standard static fonts, we also have a few Variable Fonts (VFs) in our library. Variable fonts are a relatively new font technology which enable the designer to have even more control over a font, whether that’s fine tuning a weight, width or another distinct attribute. Each control we refer to as an ‘axis’ which allows the designer to choose any value between the two extremes, or ‘masters’. This means there's far more dynamic control over the design and opens up opportunities for animation.
The champs over at ABC Dinamo have produced a very handy tutorial on styling VFs on the web. It’s a great resource if you’re looking to use our VFs! Have a look through and stick around to test out your variable fonts on their epic Font Gauntlet.
