for all possible letter combinations. ill give you an example of what i did with this:

DADBDCDDDEDFDGDHDIDJDKDLDMDNDODPDQDRDSDTDUDVDWDXDYDZ
EAEBECEDEEEFEGEHEIEJEk.........

when i say any, i mean ANY POSSIBLE LETTER COMBINATION!


Also Managed to finish more weights of advent. the previous version "Light" became "Extra Light"
and and the curent "Light" Version is a bit thicker. The same happened with "Bold"
So that makes 2 new weights for you. Also i made an "Oblique" (not italic, oblique) version.

That update gives almost the final shape for the advent font family.

the versions in this update:

Light
Light Extra
Bold
Bold Extra
Regular
Regular Oblique
Regular Rounded

im pretty happy for the result and for the time spent on this project.
this is a 3 ... if i do remember correctly, month project.
started by designing by hand using rapitograph (architectural design pen)
traced and eddited with illustrator and finally refined in fontlab studio.


Process update:
well, the shape that advent is now is a 4 month work so far, really hard work.

usage notes.

first of all please respect this gift. Realize that i didnt have to do this..
and i could just sell this font.
this is clearly for personal work.
if a designed project containing this typeface will be sold
there MUST be a refferance to me.

(clearly personal projects are not neccessary to have a refferance to me)


"EXACT" words of refferance:
