  • @This is an extended version of Ostara Aria and more elaborate than the "Kerbe" designs. I changed the look of the LC and adjusted some of the UC.

    Now the UC lace is better structured and distributed; glyphs A,N,M,U,V,X,Yand their LC, and @,7 and quotation marks have changed shape slightly; missing glyphs on the More Latin set (and the entire ExtendedLatin1 for my family, friends and aquaintances across Europe) needed quite some work due to the ornate sections - I hadn't planned on making this many glyphs, the ornate look  was just intended for display UC of English, German and French and not for any other glyphs. Getting diacritics to look good with the decorated UC glyphs was a challenge but I think the ones I've decided to use don't overdo the ornateness nor distract from the glyph's shape.

    Due to the new glyphs and diacritics I should have added 1 pixel height to accommodate the decorative lace element more obviously. Instead I changed some shape-rules ever so slightly to have an easier time adding the lace brick.

    The LC is now solid black; diacritics have some added lace to integrate better in the  design. The LC gives a separate font which might be of interest for headlines, advertising, on signs, cut to sew on fabric etc.

    Note that there are still some adjustments/spacing needed; the kerning isn't finished yet either. I'm publishing this to get constructive comments  -- and praise ;)

    The font's name is Malagache.

@  Meek: could you look at 'whatever is wrong' please, I get a 500 error when clicking "True type font" to download (but only on this font)

It works now. It’s a very large font file!

Comment by Rob Meek (meek) 21st march 2018

Thank you Meek :) Oh, large font file? Hm, with so few bricks and glyphs it appears rather unsophisticated 'basic' to me :/ *sigh* I'm so glad that I don't need to get involved in programming/coding and trying to figure things like this out.

Comment by Aeolien 21st march 2018

Good quality, I enjoyed the details in the uppercase after zooming in!* (→ “large font file” [Error 500 = “Please try later”, on FontStruct].) The support of our diacritics is great. * /!\ I noticed "Dantelina" gets somehow damaged at size 1:1 (online previewer)… perhaps this has to do with the thin artwork (~ 'dithering'), even it's quite intentional (« The LC gives a separate font »). ^^

Stray line on the lowercase L below the font...

@ 77: well spotted! I've removed it; no idea why it was there, it's not on the file I downloaded and use :/
