Hi folks! I've been working on some SVG-in-OpenType stuff I hope you find interesting. Typographer Novo Typo from Amsterdam designed a multicolor font called Bixa Color that I helped create an SVG-in-OpenType font for. The font can be found here: https://bixacolor.com And the tech write-up, with more details about how the font was created is here: https://pixelambacht.nl/2016/building-bixa-color During the development of this font I figured front-end developers would like a feature test to see which (if any) color font formats were supported by their visitor's browsers. I created a simple test called ChromaCheck: https://github.com/RoelN/ChromaCheck It checks for support for SVG-in-OpenType, SBIX, COLR/CPAL and CBDT/CBLC. On the todo-list is checking for CPAL support. Maybe this is of use for anyone experimenting with color fonts. Best regards, -Roel
