Top serif on lowercase i could be longer

Open yannakopoulos opened this issue 7 years ago • 4 comments

When compared to the top serifs on similarly-shaped l and j and even the left arm of t, the top serif on i seems incongruously short. Might it be extended to match the others?

Mind posting some images that demonstrate what you are describing? These issues are most easily addressed visually.

Sure, here's an example. Check out the shorter endings of the serifs on i compared to the letters directly above/below them.

Here's the same image with i overlaying some letters as best as I could arrange it on a difference layer, showcasing the longer serif (here the letters are black where they overlap and white where they don't.)

Yes will definitely take a look at this. Thanks for the images. I drew the i and don't remember if this was intentional or not. There may have been a rationale when positioned next to other glyphs. If there was I don't recall :)

Do you happen to draw? If so you are welcome to submit a PR and we can build it to have a look.

Sorry, I have no experience with drawing. Thanks for checking it out!
