OPENTYPE FAQ: For information on how to access the swashes and alternates, visit LauraWorthingtonType.com/faqs All operating systems come equipped with a utility that make it possible to access the swashes and alternates in my fonts. Adobe Illustrator and InDesign (CS versions), Quark Xpress 7.0 (and above), CorelDRAW X6 (and above) have OpenType and Glyph panels, You may download instructional PDFs on my FAQs page for these programs. Microsoft Word 2010 and later versions allow you to access some OpenType features in the application as well. I recommend trying out Character Map/Viewer or NexusFont first to see how it works for you before purchasing third party software. If you don't like how these utilities work, here are some additional solutions For Mac users running OS 10.8 and above, there is Ultra Character Map, which may be downloaded on the App Store for $9.99 There are additional ways to access alternates/swashes if you do not have one of the programs listed above: either by using your operating system s utility Character Map (Windows), Character Viewer (Mac OS versions prior to 10.9) or through Font Book (Mac OS 10.9 and later), by downloading NexusFont (free, Windows only) or by purchasing a software program such as PopChar or Ultra Character Map. For both Mac and PC, I also recommend PopChar by Ergonis (especially operating systems prior to 10.8), which is a standalone glyphs panel. It makes it easy to select and copy the swash or alternate letterform you want and paste it into just about any document/program (Photoshop, Word, Publisher, etc.) If you have, or are planning to purchase one of my fonts, contact me with a copy of your receipt for a 30% discount code on PopChar.
congenial italic about Congenial WANTING TO DESIGN her own sans-serif typeface for her own website to complement the rest of her type library, Laura Worthington designed Congenial as an understated, highly legible complement to her more decorative display faces. Of course, Laura is never far from her calligraphic roots, so Congenial retains some hand-drawn elements, visible particularly in the heavier weights of this generous 10-face family: for example, the swelling diagonal stroke of the capital X, and the flared terminals of the K, L, Q, and Z. At lighter weights the strokes become almost monoline, but the humanist tendency is still evident see the graceful, decidedly non-geometric curves of the k, e, and g. As befits its name, Congenial is a friendly and inviting typeface with a generous x-height and highly differentiated characters. In fact, look closely and you won't see a sharp, modernist edge anywhere. Like a perfect host, Congenial draws little attention to herself, yet she's arranged everything for effortless comfort so you can focus on communicating whatever you need to say. Now available in italic!
