(fonts/Inter-UI) Updated from 2.5 to 3.11. ChangeLog collected from github.com page
v3.11
@rsms rsms released this Oct 23, 2019 · 15 commits to master since this release
- Fixes issue (regression) with variable font where certain glyphs would
slant in the wrong direction. #198
- Fixes issue (regression) with variable font where version metadata would be
wrong. #202
- Fixes codepoint mapping for /copyleft glyph. #203
- Improves metadata of variable fonts. “fullName” name table entry is now
“Inter” instead of “Inter Regular”.
- New alternate-named variable font “Inter V”. With a different family name,
this is useful for when you want to install the variable version alongside
traditional static font files.
- Improvements to /backslash glyph
v3.10
@rsms rsms released this Sep 7, 2019 · 35 commits to master since this release

Other notable changes:

- Improvements to contextual alternates (calt), primarily reducing the cases
where case substitution is unwanted. #193
- Adjustments to the following whitespace glyphs: zerowidthspace, hairspace,
thinspace, punctuationspace, enspace, emspace, sixthemspace,
quarteremspace, thirdemspace and figurespace. #185
- Improvements to ogonek-based diacritics.
- Refinements and improvements to fractions (both dedicated glyphs and
arbitrary frac parts)
- Kerning improvements to all weights
- Progress on mark and mkmk “dynamic diacritics”
v3.9
@rsms rsms released this Aug 7, 2019 · 58 commits to master since this release
Fixes an issue with metadata where Medium, Semi Bold, and Extra Bold would
incorrectly be marked as “italic” which would confuse certain software.
v3.8
@rsms rsms released this Aug 5, 2019 · 62 commits to master since this release
- Possibly breaking change: Variable italic axis (really, slnt axis) has been
inverted (negated) — a negative value causes the text to lean rightwards.
This is only a breaking change if you are using the multi-axis variable
font (Inter.var) and define slant angle using high-level CSS properties
like font-style. This change was done to comply with the convention defined
in the OpenType spec. #175 #172
- Variable font files are now significantly smaller thanks to #171 and #169
□ Inter.var.woff2 v3.7: 393kB, v3.8: 306kB
□ Inter-upright.var.woff2 v3.7: 267kB, v3.8: 224kB
□ All this while v3.8 introduces a whole new set of glyphs, kerning and
feature code.
- Adds several new glyphs, like double-stemmed arrows and enclosed
alphanumerics & symbols
□ Warning sign #168
□ Copyleft symbol #165
□ Really long arrows, useful in ligatures like --->
□ Arrows with double-lined stems, useful for “assign to”, with ligatures
defined for some combinations with equals, e.g. =>
□ Enclosed glyphs in circles and squares
- Fixes a bug where U+0430 Cyrillic lower-case a would not be substituted for
a single-storey “a” with cv11 enabled. #179
- Fixes a bug with slant of Ͽ (U+03FF) #170 #169
- Some calt code has moved to liga (standard ligatures), specifically arrow
ligatures. Automatic case alignment is still kept in calt. So, you can now
disable calt to disable only case alignment, and disable liga to only
disable arrow ligatures.
- Improvements to kerning, spacing and letterform details
- Improved Microsoft Windows installation instructions #173
v3.7
@rsms rsms released this May 31, 2019 · 103 commits to master since this

v3.6
@rsms rsms released this May 27, 2019 · 123 commits to master since this
release
- Fixes an issue related to ttfautohint where lower case "r" would \
be grid
fitted incorrectly by ClearType on Microsoft Windows #119
- Fixes an issue with using case and calt features in combination where arrow
combinations like -> would not be substituted by arrow glyphs #161
- Fixes an issue with rightArrow of bolder weights in italic #154
- Adjusts the glyph width of "bullet" to be exactly two \
"space" glyphs wide,
allowing easy ad-hoc list creation with wrapping lines

v3.5
@rsms rsms released this Apr 2, 2019 · 139 commits to master since this release
