A similarity between some glyphs such as ก ถ ภ ฤ ฦ, ฎ ฏ, บ ป, or ข ช is something to take into consideration because it might lead to confusion when typesetting very short texts.
|
|
Mitr has a specific approach to the thick and thin strokes of Thai glyphs.
|
|
Other type designers may consider this font as an example when developing new fonts.
|
|
Informal looped Thai typefaces have slightly simplified details, as compared to formal ones, and this allows type designers to extend them to heavier weights.
|
|
The size and position of Thai vowel and tone marks have been managed carefully because they are all relevant to readability, legibility, and overall texture.
