Variable 2.0

Tuesday, March 16th, 2010

Now available in OpenType via YouWorkForThem and MyFonts.com

I am in the process of updating all of my fonts, and Variable needed a mild overhaul. As my top selling font family, I wanted to make sure it was living up to its full potential. One of the improvements I made was to use round dots instead of the former vertical lines for periods, accents, and the dots on the i and j. This should improve legibility and avoid confusion. I have also added stylistic alternate characters for the lowercase letters that did not have stems. This gives the font a completely different feel and better readability. I have also done some work to the stroke weight where the bowls hit the verticals. The final improvement I made was to add extended language support.
