Hi Wayne, Thank you very much for doing this research. Based on this new information, do you still consider the spacing metrics in the Adapting Text SC [1] adequate for when a large font-family is selected and/or increased spacing is applied to text? It currently is: * line spacing (leading) to at least 1.5 * letter spacing (tracking) to at least 0.12 em * word spacing to at least 0.16 em Do we need to increase it or is it still okay? Thanks again.
