Some readers may enjoy reading Chapter 3 of the novel as it is about the making of a colour font.

I have a few minutes ago updated the Mariposa font that is available to have the Embedding Licensing Rights as Installable.

I am hoping to produce a web page that will use the font and I think that I may need to have the Embedding Licensing Rights as Installable so that Microsoft Edge will allow its use for remote fetching. But I am not sure, so I have done it anyway. Experimentation continues.

I may need to make a .woff font but I am not sure whether I need to do that at present.

I have got the web page working.

A gentleman who had not got the font installed kindly tested it for me.

I did not need a .woff font.
