#wip#font#webcomic

@davidrevoy Steinig this font in use and comparing it to the last one (Kalam), I can read Kalam better. IMHO there are too many straight vertical lines in Deevadhand (and it is too narrow). Perhaps it is more readable when in cursive and a little bit more space between the characters.

@AxelStieglbauer Hey, I had same feeling with Kalam (that's why I put it in the demo speechbubble, and it had a green checker next to it) but also, I have some troubles (slight dyslexia, dysgraphia too) and what is readable for me is often not something agreed universally.
But sure, a bit more spacing on DeevadHand could help. I dislike when the letter are also touching each other. With JPG compression and downscaling, it feels like a soup sometime. 😆

@davidrevoy
To put the fonts in a "real life test", could you make one of your Pepper&Carrot comics in a Kalam and in a DeevadHand version?
