5 Comments on “HKS Colourmatch 26

  1. Pity about the “Ono” … avoid tracking connecting scripts. Sometimes, InDesign’s “optical” kerning is the culprit — better use “metric”.

  2. you are so right – just checked the .indd-doc … I changed it everywhere to »metric« just forgot the »ono« … I didn’t notice it till you mentioned it

    So what is the actual font used for the words “Colour Match”???
  4. That’s Kon Tiki Aloha — note that its lowercase holds unadorned caps.

    Thanks! My fault for not checking. I had my tiki blinders on.
