Yes you can. Download and install it like any other font and you can print with it.

@afrojet and @paul
Yes we have a ticket for this. The main challenge, as with all FontStruct features, is to try and keep it intuitive and simple — to keep complicated things hidden away from novices. But it would definitely be a cool and time-saving feature.

yes, a composites feature would be nice. perhaps something that used ‘recipes’ for creating new glyphs that are based on other glyphs: so that Aacute = A + acute.

Thanks for all the goodies you keep throwing our way, Rob. You need to implement a donate/sponsor button. Here’s my (very low priority but might be nice to have some day) request: The ability to clone the ‘Basic Latin’ glyph set and map them to the ‘More Latin’ and ‘Extended Latin’ sets with one click of a button.

I just noticed that there was a bug in MyFontStruct which wouldn’t allow you to edit your profile without entering a URL. This has been fixed now. Sorry about that.

@Rob: Thanks again for all the new features. I’m glad the home page listing has been switched back to the last-change sorting.

@Gene: 36 pages of fontstructions? are you kidding? :)
