The glyphs are each a single-colour glyph 2048 font units wide and 2048 font units high.

I realized that I had thus far added six of the colours from the Pantone Fashion Color Report Spring 2014 palette to the font, so I tried them in a pop art style layout in their order in the FontCreator font overview window.

However, before that idea occurred to me, I had chosen which of the colours to implement first in the font.
