Re: Cafe-Press

Unless, does somebody know of "expandable" Tibeten, Thai, Devanagari and Tamil fonts?

I just don't have very good computer programs for this. I can't fix the fonts,
nor the height. Sorry.

The Hebrew also looks suspicious, with the "ve-" on the first word
rather than the second (my guess, without knowing more, is that the
two words should be in the opposite order).

And the Indic scripts and the Thai should be a bit lower IMO so that
they have a similar visual "baseline" with the others.

And I wonder whether the Tibetan shouldn't have the little bitty
things above and below characters rather than next to them (but I
don't know enough to be sure).

And in the Navajo(?), the i-with-ogoneks aren't in the same font as
the i-without-ogoneks.

And some of the more "decorative" fonts are hard to read IMO.

On the whole, it doesn't exactly scream "professional" to me, nor
something I'd want to wear.
