🔡 Font testers needed! 🔡

Just released a rework of the Arcticons font on GitHub. It includes lots of new glyphs for multiple languages.

It's still an alpha version with many errors, but feedback is appreciated!

Added Hebrew to the typeface today. Gotta say that I'm pretty proud of the language support so far!

A sample text with the Arcticons font: "принимая во внимание, что пренебрежение и презрение к правам человека כל אדם זכאי לזכויות ולחרויות שנקבעו בהכרזש זו ללא הפליה כלשהיא Όλοι οι άνθρωποι γεννιούνται ελεύθεροι και ίσοι στην αξιοπρέπεια"

Wow, this looks like a great UI font!
Arcticons work reasonably well with Ubuntu Sans on my phone, but nothing is perfect and there is always room for improvement 😁
Default Windows font preview for some reason truncates letters like "J" and lowercase "q" — but no, there is no problem with them — in other applications they are displayed correctly.
I was just looking for an UI font to use with Sway — for window titles and such, I'll give this one a try, see if it works for me. Thanks! 👍

Font from the opening post open in default Windows font preview tool and in UWP Character Map.

Erm, sorry, that screenshot was awful 😅
It's what got generated without access to HTML canvas granted

Screenshot from the previous reply, this time it's displayed correctly.

@m0xee thank you, noticed that too. I've tweaked some things now. Hopefully that fixes the issue.
