> Charter was designed by Matthew Carter in 1987 as a body text font that would hold up well on low-resolution output devices of the day—fax machines and 300 dpi laser printers. XCharter is a project by Michael Sharpe, which extends Bitstream's Charter. An extended copyright notice has been included as part of the font files.

**NV Scarlet** is a renamed version of [Crimson](https://github.com/skosch/Crimson)'s 2012 version. I personally find it to be a better choice for digital reading than the more modern version of Crimson Pro. This version has been optically resized for optimal reading on Kobo devices.

> You can find the original version of Crimson on GitHub. Designed by: Sebastian Kosch. The font is designed in the tradition of beautiful oldstyle type, and inspired particularly by the fantastic work of people like Jan Tschichold (Sabon), Robert Slimbach (Arno, Minion) and Jonathan Hoefler (Hoefler Text).
