3 Downloads3%20Downloads36 Comments6%20Comments6329 Glyphs329%20Glyphs329Meet the Exempla family's youngest daughter: Exempla Slab Ultra Light. Nice for clean geometric designs, and as always with complete Basic Latin, More Latin and Extended Latin A sets. (Though I must admit I've started to regret the huge amount of characters I have to do for each new addition. I'm sure the family would be growing quite a bit faster with a reduced character set. Well... sometimes perfectionism comes at high a price.)
Hope you like it, feedback is as always very welcome!Meet%20the%20Exempla%20family%27s%20youngest%20daughter%3A%20Exempla%20Slab%20Ultra%20Light.%20Nice%20for%20clean%20geometric%20designs%2C%20and%20as%20always%20with%20complete%20Basic%20Latin%2C%20More%20Latin%20and%20Extended%20Latin%20A%20sets.%20%28Though%20I%20must%20admit%20I%27ve%20started%20to%20regret%20the%20huge%20amount%20of%20characters%20I%20have%20to%20do%20for%20each%20new%20addition.%20I%27m%20sure%20the%20family%20would%20be%20growing%20quite%20a%20bit%20faster%20with%20a%20reduced%20character%20set.%20Well...%20sometimes%20perfectionism%20comes%20at%20high%20a%20price.%29%3Cbr%3E%3Cbr%3E%0D%0AHope%20you%20like%20it%2C%20feedback%20is%20as%20always%20very%20welcome%21

I'm sorry this isn't very complete and far from being perfectly well done, but it somewhat started to make me feel dizzy...;) And even though I'm not very convinced by this, I don't think I'd come up with a way better execution soon.I hope for Mr Escher that there are better tribute fonts for him out there! He'd definitely deserve it...It was by the way funk_king's Impossible Alphabet that reminded me of this unfinished thing laying around in my messy unpublished fontstructions box, and made me take it out and finish it. (If you can call 42 characters "finished".)

2 Downloads2%20Downloads295 Glyphs95%20Glyphs95Another shot at a russian style font. Not very precious I admit, but as I'm probably not gonna be making any real progress on this one soon, I'm releasing it anyway...
That certain randomness/inconsistency/misproportion is intended, but I see that it's not very balanced out yet. Furthermore, this has somehow come to be a monospace (and monoheight) font. Maybe that's why I'm not really happy with it; some characters just can't be made stylish within the self-imposed monospace corsett... So why impose it, you ask? Well, no idea...;)Another%20shot%20at%20a%20russian%20style%20font.%20Not%20very%20precious%20I%20admit%2C%20but%20as%20I%27m%20probably%20not%20gonna%20be%20making%20any%20real%20progress%20on%20this%20one%20soon%2C%20I%27m%20releasing%20it%20anyway...%3Cbr%3E%3Cbr%3E%0D%0AThat%20certain%20randomness%2Finconsistency%2Fmisproportion%20is%20intended%2C%20but%20I%20see%20that%20it%27s%20not%20very%20balanced%20out%20yet.%20Furthermore%2C%20this%20has%20somehow%20come%20to%20be%20a%20monospace%20%28and%20monoheight%29%20font.%20Maybe%20that%27s%20why%20I%27m%20not%20really%20happy%20with%20it%3B%20some%20characters%20just%20can%27t%20be%20made%20stylish%20within%20the%20self-imposed%20monospace%20corsett...%20So%20why%20impose%20it%2C%20you%20ask%3F%20Well%2C%20no%20idea...%3B%29

The lowercase are if you really just wanna fill the front of your letter, the uppercase are for all visible surfaces.
For the frontside-only numbers:
US/UK keyboard: just use shift + number.
Swiss keyboard (ok, this is selfish, haha): just use alt + numbers
for any other keyboards:
1 = ! or ±
2 = @ or "
3 = # or £
