The saturation level of Charis SIL was absolutely insane there for a while. Nobody loves a font THAT much. It was like a big ol' monkey-see-monkey-do thing happening, I think.

I must be losing my mind. I'm 99% sure that we never embedded Charis, and I don't think I remember seeing ANY that had it. I knew that Jon was Charis-obsessed (no offense, Wolfie, mon sweetie) but I just missed that whole craze. I guess I was busy embedding other things. My big font-embedding adventures, initally, were mostly for chapter heads, and that type of thing. AND, of course, typewritten notes, newspaper articles/clues, the usual. Now, with all the white-label stuff, hoish! We are embedding fools. (And no: I don't need to hear it, but thanks!).
