SVG Fonts have never had good support in web browsers. SVG-in-OpenType fonts has some support, for instance in Firefox.
Google Chrome teams refuses to implement SVG-in-OT. Instead, they wanted to implemented their COLRv1. https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=306078#c18 https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=306078...
- Beltalowda 4y agothe Mozilla position on COLRv1 is "Provides comparable design capabilities to OpenType-SVG, but in a more compact and lightweight form that integrates better into font rendering pipelines. Has the potential to supersede OpenType-SVG fonts in web use." So this seems like a good thing overall. Note that Firefox doesn't support it at this time.
- jfoster 4y ago> the Mozilla position on... Where does Mozilla's revenue come from? Are they an impartial 3rd party?
- jfk13 4y agoThere's support in Firefox Nightly, actually, if you enable the setting 'gfx.font_rendering.colr_v1.enabled' in about:config.
- Beltalowda 4y agoAh cool, I missed that!
