Does anyone recognize the letter shapes in this header? It was a newspaper printed in Ourense (Galicia, Spain) from 1910 to 1913. The typographer spent time in Paris and other European cities before printing this.

What about saying “invest” instead of “buy” when you pay for a font license? It gives a better sense of the value you get from your money. #random #thoughts

Hello, type people. We’re adding the e.g. alternate character into our new typeface, which we first introduced with Kinetic back in 2017. I’m a bit unsure whether to set it up as a localised option for both English and Spanish or to make it a stylistic alternate. I have a feeling that including it as a localised form would be better, since that way most users can actually see and use it, rather than it being hidden away. What would you do?
