@petercon > fonts can now be made with arbitrary type-designer-controlled slant, so why munge other fonts... Yes, if the fallback font happens to be a variable font. But we can't guarantee that, and the CSS spec needs to give guidance on what to do when an oblique font is requested (with a given angle) and no variable font with a `slnt` axis is in the font stack, so it has to be synthesized. (Note that CSS also allows a stylesheet to disallow fake bold, fake italic, and now fake smallcaps too). -- GitHub Notification of comment by svgeesus Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/519#issuecomment-442931724 using your GitHub account
