Remember the IDEO font map? Well, it's gone and not available anymore for quite some time now.
But guess who's doing a better (hopefully) version of it?

Currently we're working on an updated Glyphs page in FontBase. It will have glyph search, Unicode groups displayed, and work faster with lots of glyphs.
What features would you like to see on the new Glyphs page?

A really short history of type. 🧵
Roman letters started as inscriptions carved in stone in 8th century BC. Romans adapted the Greek alphabet, creating the foundation for all Western scripts. These early letters had thick/thin strokes & serifs - still influencing type today.

Oi, a thread about italics! 🧵👇
True italics aren't just slanted text! They're completely redrawn typefaces with cursive structure, like handwriting. Compare a true italic 'a' vs roman 'a' - totally different shapes.
