Default are "old style figures". "Lining figures" are also included in the font. they are accessible via Open Type features. |
Pablo, I hear about this really a crazy amount of the time. I would like to
propose making the lining figures default. Would you be willing to do this
to make users happy? 😄

I agree. "Old style" figures - it's fine and useful, but usually "lining" more suitable. |
If some web converters remove opentype options by default, I propose that's even more reason to maintain the old-style figures. They're really one of the main reasons I use the font. |
Hi there! @impallari is making the lining figures default going to be considered? |
Whenever I'm looking at a string of numbers, the fact that they don't line up always irks me. If you try to line them up with letters, it looks terrible:
It's like the numbers use their own alignment, which makes certain number look bad.
Personally, I think that they should line up with the Capital Letters (Like 6 and 8).
1, 2, and 0 may need to be resized. If I align the numbers by their bottoms, it comes out looking like this:
The tops of 1, 2, and 0 are mostly aligned with each other, but they're not aligned with any other character.
Seeing stuff like this makes me think that the font sizes are different:
Whatever alignment you guys decide to use, the numbers themselves should at least align with each other. The numbers lack consistency, and I'd love to see that issue be fixed.
