![]() ![]() ![]() Luckly Iosevka allows some very sophisticated tweaking, so I have tried my best to improve on "poor man's Pragmata" by fixing these. There are slight differences in programming ligatures used.SS08 punctuation marks are consistent with the rest of the font, while PragmataPro has them slightly bolder.The line height of SS08 seems to be larger.Investigating public images of text written in PragmataPro and having quite limited time and resources I was able to spot following differences between The Original and SS08: But does it the best possible job? Improving Iosevka SS08 Till the day we have SS08 stylistic set of Iosevka that mimics PragmataPro. But with time the font matured to a framework that able to provide much more than just a copy of very good font. The sole intention from very beginning of this font was to immitate PragmataPro as closely as possible. I can name a few:īut Iosevka stands out of the crowd the most. There were many attemps to achieve same goals as PragmataPro did: condensed with increased xHeight. But there is a catch: although it worth every penny, PragmataPro is not free. ![]() There is no better font if you want to make most out of the screen real estate. Every character seems to be of the best possible shape for readability. The storyĭo you love PragmataPro as I am? Probabbly you do, if you're reading this. After carefully reviewing your font and comparing it with other fonts (e.g.Here is comparison with PragmataPro (black, the image taken from Wikipedia): Operator Mono) I believe this is the best one I have ever found and the price is quite fair. I was wondering if it would be a lot of work for you to create a different variation that only contains a few groups of glyphs? For example as a developer who works with C#, JS, HTML, CSS, Markdown, Swift and a few more languages I would only need English language and also some groups (e.g. #Essential pragmata pro codeīox drawing) that don’t have a direct use in writing code are just nice to have. This way you might be able to make it more approachable for more developers. Dank Mono has an interesting price tag, but it only contains a fraction of what you have done (and not as beautiful). I have another suggestion too(based on Dank Mono’s again). I think it would be very useful if you could create a page in your website to let people type in their favorite language and see the syntax highlighting and ligatures in action before buying. For example, an application with pretty minimal font settings (you can select font name and size) started to render “PragmataPro” in italic instead of regular, etc.įurther investigation showed that every Regular version has some of its properties tuned in 0.828 comparing to 0.827.īesides some older errors (such as Unique Identifier stated ‘Liga’ for non-ligature variants) these four regular versions now have set “Is Monospaced = Yes”, “Family Style = Monospaced”, “Proportion = Monospaced” and vice versa - even non-Mono versions of PragmataPro Regular! Just installed PragmataPro v0.828 (on Windows 7) and noticed that a lot of apps began to render it improperly. I guess there is a little bug it’s appropriate for “Mono” variants but not for regular ones. Having set “Monospaced” flag on Regular, but not on Italic, Bold and Bold Italic among one family looks strange. As I remember, the intention for a separate “Mono” family was that some apps doesn’t recognize modular-spaced fonts and require a “true” monospaced font. ![]()
