This means that the\nentire basic ASCII set \u0026 symbols should have the same `advance` number and the\nsame baseline/x-height/etc. However, some Latin-extended characters, such as\nthose with certain diacritics, may be slightly different.\n\nIn order to improve legibility, Renaissance 9 explicitly does _not_\nfollow the goal of metrical compatibility.\n\n## Design\n\nI'm by no means a type designer. If you'd like to raise any concern about the\nfont (especially concerning diacritics), _please_ let me know!\n\nHere are some guidelines for Renaissance's design:\n\n- No stroke modulation (all strokes in a glyph should be the same width)\n    - Except diacritics \u0026 certain characters like @, especially in small sizes.\n- Grotesque-ish style\n- Comparatively short ascenders/descenders (1/3 to 1/2 x-height.)\n- Legibility is just as important as consistency.\n- When a diacritic can't be centered over a character, move it right.\n    - Except characters like g where it might interfere\n      (e.g. double-story lowercase g)\n- All characters should be available in all fonts (some fonts are\n  missing the `×` character)\n    - Exception: Renaissance 9 needn't contain all diacritics because they may\n      be hard to tell apart at that size.\n- Carons must _always_ be distinguishable from breves. (NB: Breves don't exist in 09.)\n- Renaissance aims for friendlier-looking lowercase letters like `b` in large\n  sizes, meaning that the curvature of the bowl should be the same on both sides.\n\n\n## Copyright concerns\n\nTo my best understanding, only outline fonts are protected by US intellectual\nproperty law. Nevertheless, Renaissance is a from-scratch remake of\nGothic Condensed—not a simple copy of it. Either way, most characters will look\nsimilar, and others will even be the exact same: there simply aren't infinite\nways to represent a given character within a given bitmap.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fpebble-dev%2Frenaissance","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fpebble-dev%2Frenaissance","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fpebble-dev%2Frenaissance/lists"}
