From the iA Writer blog: “In search of the perfect writing font.” The argument therein for a monospaced font is just one example of the thoughtfulness behind iA Writer, whose creators understand that writing is not word-processing. The app now comes with three monospaced fonts.

Ha. Indeed. But Michael you forgot the best bit, which is that for non IA users (you probably want a hypen there!) the beautiful Duospace font can be downloded free here https://github.com/iaolo/iA-Fonts/tree/master/iA%20Writer%20Duospace.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tip!

Good point, johannes. They have a page with links for all their fonts. (I like Quattro.)
ReplyDeleteI find the choices of font on their GitHub pages puzzling. My guess is that most users would want the variable ones. Does that seem right to you?
