# Proggy Vector
New for 2019 is a vector (scalable) version of Proggy Clean Slashed-Zero. Proggy Vector comes in woff, svg, eot, ttf (with Mac variants), and otf (with Mac variants). Here is a sample.

In 2023 some cleanup to Proggy Vector was made to normalize all glyph widths, distribute a woff2 export, and include 8-dot braille. This change bumped the version to V1.1.6 for Proggy Vector. The variants, Crossed and Dotted, described below, remain at V1.1.5 and do not include braille.

A further update in 2023 has bumbed the Proggy Vector version to 1.1.7. This change adds a dotted-zero version of Proggy Vector. Both the regular (crossed-zero) and dotted versions have cleaned-up alignment/paths of some glyphs. In addition the TTF versions are now tagged correctly as monospaced and will appear bolded in font-selection dropdowns in IDEs like Visual Studio.

There are two variants of Proggy Vector. The first is Proggy Dotted. It is a conversion of Proggy Vector with the dotted zero. The second is Proggy Crossed with crossed sevens and zeds. Here is a screenshot:

Proggy Vector is a modified version of the Hack Font. The modifications were made using the Bird Font editor. Both the modifications made by SourceFoundry for Hack and my subsequent modifications are licensed under MIT. However, Hack started life out elsewhere, so please read the licensing information in ProggyVector_Readme_And_Licensing.txt. There's nothing arduous.

The web format woff/woff2 file was generated by importing the otf into FontForge and exporting. I have also included the BirdFont (.birdfont) project file in case anyone would like to make further edits.

Windows appears to do a better job rendering ttf fonts over otf versions (even though otf supports cubic beziers which should not be approximations of the authored curves). Point size 10 of the ttf works well for me in Visual Studio. Here's a sample.
