A while ago I researched out of curiosity if it was possible to build fonts with embedded colour bitmaps like the Apple Color Emoji font on Mac OS 10.7/10.8. I figured out the «sbix» table format and wrote some code that can be hooked into the Python FontTools to decompile and compile the sbix table which contains the image data.

Some of my research was generously allowed to happen during my working hours at FontShop International.

After pondering for a while what to do with this knowledge, me and FontShop International finally decided to make the code public to encourage experimentation.

So without further ado, please check out the attached demo scripts.

Can you help me identify this font please?

A week ago I got a project from a client in which I have to complete a design that was started by another designer. My client really likes the fonts and wants me to use the same one for the rest of the project. They only have a jpeg copy of the design. I do not have a clue what is the name of these fonts and I tried every where and last time I had a meeting with the client they said that the previous designer worked at a sign writing company so I’m thinking maybe they have them available on their programs, if you can help me recognize the font it would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

Typo SF conference 2013

Wow, it's been a long time since I've posted anything here.

Anyway,
I've applied to volunteer at Typo SF, so I'll probably get to meet some of you at the early check-in or maybe some other time. See you there.
