### Robo Instructus: [Font Rendering Saga][otf-font-rendering]

846+
847+
This month, the developer behind Robo Instructus spent lots of time working on
848+
font rendering. They were looking to expand translations to languages that had
849+
different characters, such as Cyrillic or Chinese. This would require support
850+
for cubic bezier curves, not just quadratic curves. You can [read their
851+
blog][otf-font-rendering] for an in-depth explanation. This lead to the release
852+
of [ab_glyph 0.1][otf-saga-ab-glyph] that supports otf fonts, which then lead to
853+
[glyph_brush 0.7][otf-saga-glyph-brush] based on this, and finally [otf fonts in
854+
Robo Instructus][otf-font-robo].
