  1. @chemoelectric Yeah, I know. Nothing I can do about that, unfortunately. At least it's the awful old version. :)
  2. @chrisharsch Thanks, I'll look into it -- it's exam season though, I may not get around to it very quickly :/
  3. @kevinkeunen can you email me about it? I don't have Word so I can't test it
  4. @saqeram @KhaledGhetas I'm working on Greek&Cyrillic at the moment, but it's next on the list. Or you could do it yourself :)
  5. @chemoelectric That honors me, Barry! (Even though Google's version is a year old and looks absolutely awful to my eyes.)
  6. @johanolofolsson Hmm ... send me an email, I might be able to throw one together for you
  7. @nlunsford That's odd, what exactly is the problem? Email me!
  8. All six weights are redrawn and spaced/kerned. Should be on GWF soon. Please download (bit.ly/ttmq4T) and give feedback! Thanks :)
  9. @simplescholar Thank you, kind sir!
  10. @TomCiopp That's been in there for a long while, check out the dev version on SVN. Google's version will be updated very soon!
  11. iKerned Semibold & Italic and Bold Italic are just around the corner :)
  12. @yesiamben No, absolutely no idea. Google offers a very old (= crappy) version. email me? :)
  13. @markembling @alexklages ... better now? Everything's fine on my Linux box, so I can't tell. But thanks for getting back to me!
  14. @markembling Weird, but thanks for letting me know. Will try and fix that tonight!
  15. Roman, Italic and Bold are iKerned. Get them here: tinyurl.com/crimsontext, try them out, and let me know how it goes. :)
  16. @newtron Just tried. Looks crap indeed (and then crashed my fontforge somehow). I'll refrain from pursuing this any further. :D
  17. @newtron I doubt that'll look good, but I can try if you want. Wait a couple days though, I'm expecting a fully kerned version very soon :)
  18. @newtron nope, why? (It'd take like 10 seconds to make one though ...)
  19. @peterseibel Google subset the fonts and I don't think they're included. Email me and I might be able to give you some tips though :)
  20. @ironwallaby No, unfortunately not, but I'm trying to learn how to do it myself :)
