Hola Amigos,

Alright here is the problem, visually:

Ouch!


That is the first pass of an Español version of the DVD cover.

Thanks!

Examples of the problem can be seen in the words:
Versión and Ofimática

The letters with diacritics do not have equal proportions, to my eye
anyhow, as those that do not have them - looking back I new see it in
the translation of the DVD label also, but it is much more pronounced
with the larger font on the piece.

So - what is the shared wisdom on how to proceed:

Switch all the text to a different font?

Try to fix the vegur font and offer it back to the community at large?

Open to any and all ideas - thanks much,

Drew


It is clear that the font is not complete. While fixing the font would
be ideal in the long run, I don't think it will be an easy task...
specially if the following step is to produce a cover for languages
with *stacked* diacritics: the task of fixing the font will be
looooong.
I cannot think of a sans serif font replacement that I *really* like.
SIL have a couple of them:

I'll test them soon.
Cheers
