Description:
Yes, I've done that on some of my fonts, depending on the scale. I should give it a go, I suppose -- but you know me. Most of my fonts are quickset concrete. I can't be bothered getting out the drill. Onwards and upwards. Well, sideways anyway.

I had a bit of a timeout saving fright. So though there are a few important glyphs missing I'm floating it now.

If anyone is sufficiently enthused/I can work up the energy I'll fill out the basic character set at least.

I'm pretty pleased it behaves pretty much. It only needs the odd bit of judicious tightening here and there.

Ooooh.
Mr. Legible!
nice font!

i don't know... i understand the straigth idea of that "m", but if i let my eyes fly over the word "Adamantine" in the sample they always seem to "stumble" upon it...

you know what i mean?

That's what's fun about Fontstruct. You absolutely can't have your cake and eat it. There are plenty of letterforms I stumble upon, but I haven't stumbled upon any viable way of fixing them!

Have a look the height of your caps compared to your ascenders. The ascenders on most serif typefaces reach higher. This might bring your entire alphabet(s) into balance.

Alternatively, the caps could be shorter.
