hey guys

this is a slightly different take on my previous project: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14409255

whereas that project generates (potentially interesting) font pairings, this one is more about finding new fonts based on your preferences.

anyways, let me know if you have any questions or feedback!

Playing with it a bit gave me a blank font for the body: http://brandmark.io/font-generator/?family=Fira+Sans+Condens...

Seems to be an issue with the Rubik font: https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Rubik

oh that's weird, which browser/os? does it not work on fonts.google.com either?

How was the embedding for the font features generated? By hand given a few axes representing traits?
