Activate styllistic sets

yourlocalboy

Hi Armin.
I want to use favorite lining, but how do I activate the stylistic sets?

Thanks.

Ah you mean you want to use that font. I think there is a specific .woff font file just for that font, no?

yourlocalboy

Yes, But it has 9 different stylistic sets. The real cool one needs to be activated through open type when I use it in InDesign. Is that possible to get that activated in Lay theme somehow?

:O humm, I'm not sure, do you have the webfont or only the desktop font? maybe you would need the webfont to do this.

yourlocalboy

Yes, I got the web version. Goddammit :-/

Hey, so after playing around with it on http://www.abcdinamo.com/specimen/olicLd
I found out they use the css:

font-feature-settings: "ss09";

Ok so what you can do is create a textformat that uses the font.
Each textformat has a "HTML class"

Here it is "_Default" for example.

Ok now go to "Lay Options" -> "Custom CSS & HTML" and in "Custom <head> content" put:

<style>
._Default{
font-feature-settings: "ss09";
}
</style>

Of course instead of _Default, there should be the html class of your textformat.
