Taken from upstream repro https://github.com/aaronbell/LxgwMarkerGothic at fe8357007423a983e696d2d3ff545ac9bb1bb89e

This is an adaptation of LXGW Marker Gothic with the following changes:

  • Cleared unicode from softhyphen
  • Removed GPOS data from legacy marks
  • Updated font metadata and font info to follow GF expectations
  • Updated the vertical metrics to follow GF's C/J vertical metrics requirements #8911.
  • added GASP table set to full blur
  • adjusted vhea table slightly to follow the center line

Single weight font, 3.2MB

Hi @aaronbell!

do you think you can add the image to the article? https://raw.githubusercontent.com/lxgw/LxgwMarkerGothic/main/documentation/images/markerg-1.png

About that issue: #7741 Are we good? Let me know if there are any images, descriptions or designer bio/avatar available so I can update all of these new fonts :)

@emmamarichal Sure! Added it in.

As for #7741, I pinged the form over to the designer, but they never replied. I think we should just move forward with the stub bio for the time being and if they want to expand it out at some point, they can get in touch.
