Fattern font only black white


Recommended Posts

I use the the font fattern. This is a SVG font. But....only on newer Adobe photoshop and illustrator this font is shown with a colered pattern. In Designer, we see the font in black, filled inside. 

here is the font: https://www.fontspace.com/fattern-font-f48474 read at the and the remark about the coloring in newer Adobe versions.

In designer iPad, I see the fattern font, colored. But bij choosing. It will be black and filled single color.

how can we use Fattern? See screendumps:

We can’t use colour fonts yet in the Affinity apps. As shown in your screenshot, they’re displayed in colour in the font list, but I think that’s just a standard iOS/iPadOS feature.

Yes, but why not?

Because Serif hasn't done the programming to support them yet. They probably have other items of a higher priority to work on.

I’ve attached my reworking of the file ‘Fattern Outlines.ai’ in Affinity format. It’s not as flexible as having a fully working colour font, of course, but at least it provides a starting point for including colour Fattern text in your documents.

I’ve now reworked the same designer’s ‘Multicolore Pro’ font. I had to use the EPS file because the AI files aren’t PDF-compatible and I can’t resave them because I don’t have Adobe Illustrator.

I would like to have reworked ‘ColorTube’ too, but it was only supplied as an incompatible AI file.
