   Workplace Sans 0.81 has been released.   
      
   http://users.socis.ca/~ataylo00/creative/fonts/workplace/index.html#wp   
   su   
      
   Changes in this release:   
   - Minor changes to several character shapes, in particular 'a', 'w', 'R'.   
   - Fractionally widened the number characters.   
   - A couple of additional characters added.   
   - Non-bitmap versions are now built with TypeTool version 3; to avoid the   
     previously-encountered difficulties with this version, TrueType font   
      
     metrics are now set manually instead of automatically calculated, and   the   
   font width class is set to "normal" instead of "semi-condensed".    
   - Font is no longer auto-hinted on build: the hinting was observed to   cause   
   rounded glyphs to appear too tall on some point sizes.  With   antialiasing   
   the hinting is not really necessary, and without   antialiasing the bitmapped   
   versions are recommended anyway.   
   - (Bold) Bitmap version now includes Cyrillic.
