1 Typotheque type specimen & OpenType feature specification. Please read before using the fonts. Supernova OpenType font family supporting Latin based languages with their own small caps, with extensive typographic features. 01 OpenType features in Supernova ewjduhiz tvnsgfq Designed by Martina Flor, 2013 What is OpenType? OpenType is a cross-platform font format developed by Adobe and Microsoft. It has a potential to provide advanced typographic features such as multilingual character sets, ligatures, small capitals, various numeral styles, and contextual substitutions. OpenType, as the new industry standard, supports Unicode, which enables the fonts to contain a large number of characters. While PostScript fonts are a technically limited to a maximum of only 256 characters, OpenType fonts can have more than 65,000 glyphs. This means that a user does not need to have separate fonts for Western, Central European, Baltic, Cyrillic or Greek languages, but could have one single file which supports all these encodings. OpenType fonts work in all applications, however only some applications take advantage of the advanced OpenType features. Other applications will only use the first 256 characters.

5 Supernova A supernova is a stellar explosion that is more energetic than a nova. It is pronounced pron.: with the plural supernovae /or supernovas. Supernovae are extremely luminous and cause a burst of radiation that often briefly outshines an entire galaxy, before fading from view over several weeks or months. During this short interval a supernova can radiate as much energy as the Sun is expected to emit over its entire life span. The explosion expels all of a star s material at a velocity of up to 30,000 km/s (10% of the speed of light), driving a shock wave into the surrounding interstellar medium. This shock wave sweeps up an expanding shell of gas and dust called a supernova remnant. Nova means new in Latin, referring to what appears to be a very bright new star shining in the celestial sphere; the prefix super- distinguishes supernovae from ordinary novae which are far less luminous. The word supernova was coined by Walter Baade and Fritz Zwicky in 1931.

14 Overview of supported OpenType layout features ab?! (doh-ehg) AB?! (Doh-EhG) Case Sensitive forms (case) t When function change to caps is applied from within an application (not when text is typed in caps) appropriate case-sensitive forms are automatically applied. Regular brackets, parenthesis, dashes and hyphens are replaced with their capital forms. Small Caps Small Caps All Small Caps All small fig.1 fig.2 w e Small Capitals & All Small Caps (smcp & c2sc) In Adobe applications there are two methods of applying small capitals. The first one, Small Caps ( H) fig. 1 replaces only lower case letters with small caps. The second method, All Small Caps, fig. 2 replaces also capital letters with small capitals, and replaces regular quotation marks, exclamation points and question marks, slashes and asterisk with lowered small caps variations v Slashed Zero (zero) Because in some circumstances 0, can be mistaken for an O, alternative forms of slashed zero are available for all styles of figures fiflffifflfhfk fiflffifflfhfk d Standard Ligatures (liga) Standard ligatures are those which are designed to improve the kerning and readability of certain letter pairs. For example, when this feature is activated, typing f and i will automatically produce the fi ligature. Using ligatures does not affect the spelling and hyphenation of your text in any way. 21/2 31/ / /2 31/ /5100 h Arbitrary Fractions (frac) Typotheque OpenType fonts already include a number of pre-designed fractions.
