OFL Sorts Mill Goudy TT has misplacement issues in several characters


Posted on Nov 15, 2010 by Quick Wombat

What is the expected output? What do you see instead? I noticed this first when trying to use a cedilla (Ç), which appears off place. But then I went to check the character set and found a few other characters that suffer from this error.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? Mac OS X 10.6.4 / Google Chrome 7.0.517.44

Please provide any additional information below. Follow this link and look for the Ç and you'll find the problem http://code.google.com/webfonts/family?family=OFL+Sorts+Mill+Goudy+TT&subset=latin#set

Can you provide a screenshot? Because it looks good to me, apart from the fact that I used a comma accent for the cedilla, and not everyone likes that.

That looks nasty. Google could be using an older version of the font that is mishandled by buggy applications. Could you try the Goudy 3.1 at http://code.google.com/p/sortsmill/downloads/list?q=label:Featured and somehow see if it is displayed correctly on your system?

Hello! I've tried it on a computer with Chrome/WindowsXP and this doesn't happen, so i'm guessing it's something to do with Mac OS X, because it looks like that in every browser i tested it (Chrome/Firefox/Safari).

Hope this helps! Thanks for the file and the quick replies.
