"Dear So-Called Font Designer:
I'm so-and-so, the buyer of various and sundry goody packages on places like TheHungryJpeg, or CreativeMarket, MightyDeal, and so on. I'd like to have a quiet word, about your font offerings.
Please understand, I offer this
gentle critique, to aid you in growing in your brand-new area of specialty.
Avenir Next Pro, is a font(see note). Futura, is a font. Bembo Standard, Garamond and Janson, are fonts. As is Kepler. In the sans-serif category, Brandon Text, is a font. As is good ol' Helvetica, or Ocean Sans.
That scribbled mess, that you have hubristically labeled as a "font," that you slapped a price tag on, and worse, that ended up in this package/bundle, that I bought from Place X, thereby foisting that pig's breakfast one me,
IS. NOT. A. FONT.
That is, in fact, some rough approximation of your own handwriting. Calling that a "script" font, or a handwriting font, or a brush font, does not change what it is.
JUST SAY NO to SCANAHAND. Spare the rest of us. PLEASE.
Scribble is
not an optional glyph. Your idea, to join together two letters that don't come together in nature (really? You've created a "dh" ligature? You couldn't make an FF lig, or a th, or any of the others that actually DO exist, in English-speaking countries?) does
nothing but make font fiends like myself dream of ways
to make you pay.
Don't make me come find you."
