Nice k, but the t tail is too long, and that x is somewhat strange. Also letters with rings have their rings way too close to the letters themselves.

Great work, these are some nice smooth letterforms.

I see quite a few fonts with ringed letters like this. I checked Diacritics Project to see what it had to say, and found this line: "Letters with this diacritic mark are not generally considered accented letters per se, but typically consitute distinct letters in alphabets in which they occur." This tells me that typographers have some freedom in where they place the ring and how they draw it. A few of Diacritics Projects' own example images have the ring placed even lower than 77 has done. Lowering the ring is a technique many fonts have to use to avoid increasing their effective height (especially pixel fonts).

When I see that a glyph will look like a mutant 8 when a diacritic is present, I choose not to include that letter at all. And why can't the effective height be reduced in post production?

@Zeph Thanks!

“Lowering the ring is a technique many fonts have to use to avoid increasing their effective height (especially pixel fonts).” And they sometimes shorten the height of the letter as well to make it fit inside the grid...
