As a legacy Palm owner I'm loving this series! Some of these caps seem too narrow compared to the 'A'.

Thank you for the kind comments!

I am not happy with the capital character widths of the Palm Large font. Using my Linen Test loupe to squint and count the pixels on my Zire 31 for the better part of 2 weeks, the Hand Aviator Large caps are indeed accurate to the rather unfortunate Palm Large font.

I love the Small font, the Bold font and the Large Bold font. The Large font? Not so much; I feel it's poorly designed. Palm could have done a much better job with the characters of that particular font size/style, especially with the extra pixels available for its 'larger' size...

[Also noticed today that the Palm Pilot Large "a" was kerned incorrectly. I have fixed it.]

Thanks for the kind words, coonotadfoo. Search for my other "Palm Pilot" [Palm Pilot / PalmOne] fonts for the other 3 sizes!
