U+2044 (Fraction) and U+20A1 (colón) are defective in all Italics about public-sans

[thisisdano]

I see that that colón is a little awkward, but can you explain a little more what makes it unacceptable? (i.e. point to the expected output?)

Also, what makes the fraction slash defective? To my eyes, it looks somewhat ungraceful and poorly spaced (and should be cleaned up) but not necessarily defective or broken. Can you give an example?

For the fraction, it should have consistent width. For the colón, Its slash should fully cross the 'c', as it happens in all romans. Em seg, 22 de abr de 2019 00:53, Dan O. Williams <[email protected]> escreveu:

I got an idea: why not use uppercase 'C' to make the colóns, then apply a double slash (and apply that to romans too) ?

[cssobral2013]

I got another idea: why not reverting the colón, 'fraction', 'perthousand' and 'percent' to Public Sans, version 1.000?

[thisisdano]

Oh, I'm surprised there was change from 1.000 to the current version. I will check that out.

[thisisdano]

OK — I see the regression and will fix.

I forgot to mention - include 'fraction' on the change list. Post has been edited above.

Another thing to note: Thin Italic and Black Italic DOESN'T display this problem, so it looks like an interpolation problem.
