  7. @tomcoates It's pretty standard for a foundry to provide alt versions with those kinds of chars (cf typekit.com/fonts/proxima-…). 4:16 PM May 24th via Twitter for Mac in reply to tomcoates
  8. @tomcoates Have you licensed from House? They may have what you need. 4:12 PM May 24th via Twitter for Mac in reply to tomcoates
  9. @tomcoates There are tools for that, but typically the foundry is responsible. You may violate a EULA if you do it yourself... 4:12 PM May 24th via Twitter for Mac in reply to tomcoates
  10. @tomcoates You need to put those chars into a separate font-family and call that family for the elements that use them. 3:31 PM May 24th via Twitter for Mac in reply to tomcoates
