      1. Type foundries, a question: would it be weird if I made a digital type specimen for one of your fonts (that I, of course, had a license for) and hosted it on my domain? Sometimes, I need a specimen for a specific purpose and not all specimens are created equally!

      For example: sometimes, I just want to see some specific content. Other times, I want something formulaic (like specimen builder produces: typespecimens.xyz/builder/). Other times, I want to design with it but in a specimen/intended use context.

    So I’m thinking that those use cases might be useful for other folks too. Sort of like creating my own font catalog/reference, digitally recreating those libraries/reference that sit on physical shelves.
