tnViking Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 What are color fonts? They are the next big thing in graphic designThey bring multiple colors, shades, textures and transparency to type They include vector shapes, bitmap images or even both into font filesAnything I write here, would just be copying from this website, http://www.colorfonts.wtf/ Have a read through it, then decide if you want colour fonts. I know, that I want it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 Somewhat related this would be really useful in being able to include Apple (and others) emoji's in UX designs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petar Petrenko Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 I don't agree they are "the next big thing" at all: 1. You can't change their color; 2. You depend on the resolution of the raster fonts.

Frank Reding Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 I would also dearly love to see support for color SVG fonts in the Affinity suite. It's a shame to have to switch to competing products to use them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
