Cropping

[edit source]

Quill Caps seems improperly cropped, with 194 bleeding into 193, 210 into 209, 219 into 218, 241 into 240, and 251 into 250. Based on https://github.com/RuneStar/fonts/blob/master/data/RuneScape/RuneScape-Quill-Caps.json#L657 that seems like an error when publishing to the wiki and not how it would be in-game?

Additionally, I'm unsure of the decision to tightly crop each glyph in of itself. This makes it difficult to differentiate between, for example, a comma and an apostrophe, and makes it impossible to represent spaces in the supported characters. Widths are also important if someone wishes to do something with it, and I haven't observed the game using kerning pairs.

Having all these separate images instead of atlases causes mobile browsers to choke somewhat. Below Ice Mountain (talk) 13:53, 18 June 2025 (UTC)

@Below Ice Mountain: File:Quill Caps - 193.png is 53x43px and the page you linked is saying the same. So it is reflecting the bleeding as it is ingame.
FYI I got the sprites from abextm/osrs-cache which had them cropped already. I tried loading the page with a 2012 phone and it seemed fine, notwithstanding javascript not loading on all pages. Shayani (talk) 10:28, 2 July 2025 (UTC)
Surprised you have a 2012 phone capable of loading the wiki. My 2011 one is stuck on Android Jelly Bean even with CyanogenMod. I had the wrong code point and/or am illiterate - carry on! Below Ice Mountain (talk) 13:53, 2 July 2025 (UTC)
