A Personal Review: What I Love (and a Few Quirks)

The Antelope font has become a staple in my design toolkit, and here’s why:

• ✨ Unique and modern look: Antelope’s hand-designed calligraphy style gives it a fresh and natural feel that’s hard to find in other fonts.
• ✅ Extensive OpenType features: This font includes standard ligatures, stylistic alternates, contextual alternates, stylistic sets, and swashes – making it incredibly versatile.
• ✅ Ease of use: Despite its complex features, Antelope is surprisingly easy to use, even for those new to OpenType fonts.

However, I do have to mention a few minor quirks:

• 🤔 Limited use in body text: While Antelope is stunning in headings and titles, its calligraphic nature makes it less suitable for long blocks of body text.
• ⚠️ Occasional kerning issues: As with any font, you may encounter some kerning issues – especially when using swashes or stylistic alternates.
