Font Request: Charter

Open johncmunson opened this issue 7 years ago • 5 comments

One of my favorite books on Typography is Practical Typography by Matthew Butterick. One of his highly recommended free fonts is Charter. It would be awesome to see this font added!

That'd be great! Is it on fontsquirrel? If so it's easy to add. Otherwise, I'd need you to PR a script to create the package for the font.

It is not on font squirrel, nor is it on google fonts. Do you have some general guidance of how one would go about adding a new font, where all you have is the zip containing the various font files (.otf, .woff, .ttf, .eot, etc.)?

It'd be similar to the other scripts e.g. https://github.com/KyleAMathews/typefaces/blob/master/scripts/create-package-from-google-font-id.js

Rats, scripts like that aren't my strong suit, I probably won't have time to give it a solid effort anytime soon. Now, if anyone wanted to pair up with me and treat it as a learning exercise, that would be awesome!

Hi @KyleAMathews, I can pick this up! Need it for my website, would be happy to make a PR.
